The only difference between him and everyone else is he puts the ball in play on bad pitches instead of straight up whiffingHe’s hitting .259 with RISP since coming here and hitting cleanup. Non-RISP he’s .285

August 30Aug 30 Just now, Bwestbrook36 said:So I'm not seeing things then lol.You aren’t. It’s the reason I said he’s not a cleanup hitter. He really shouldn’t be. You can say well his overall career says he hits wall runners and scoring position. His overall career they haven’t put them in the spot to be hitting cleanup where you need to drive runners in. He’s sitting into more double plays as he is a contact hitter and hurting the Phillies. He should really be batting either lead off or second.

August 30Aug 30 Turner was dumb for getting himself into that situation but no way he was out on replay
August 30Aug 30 A season’s worth of base running blunders. They’ve been really lucky the last two nights.

I felt like either they were both clear enough, or neither was clear enough. After the first wasn't overturned I couldn't see how they could say there was enough evidence to overturn the second.

August 30Aug 30 Why did they put him out there today? He did get out of that jam only giving up the one run but a rest would have been a wise move.

August 30Aug 30 Gonna be a rough next 7 games if the offense is going to look like crap for all but one inning a night
August 30Aug 30 We’re gonna find out a lot more about this team over the next 25 games. 19th of the next 25 against teams currently in the playoff field. And 13 straight against teams in the playoff field.
August 30Aug 30 Looking at the schedule the notable games are the ones against other NL playoff contenders. The series against Arizona, the seven games against Atlanta, the final weekday games against the Brewers. Hopefully that final weekend means nothing.
August 30Aug 30 It’s good to see both Wheels and Sanchez have good starts this series. Hopefully it’s something to build off of. And it was a must happen to sweep the Angels even though it was ugly. You can’t lose to a team who is out of playoff contention when you’re the team trying to make a run in the postseason. Buckle up for September it’s going to make or break this Phillies team

Buckle up for September it’s going to make or break this Phillies teamFrankly we need to keep pace with the cubs and somehow pass them to get home field advantage for the that wild card round. Unfortunately we don’t have the tie breaker as we got destroyed by the cubs in April
