But a 3.95-4.40 ERA guy like Eflin has been the last five years is absolutely fine for the back end of the rotation. I think Cincinnati you could look to get mahle who’s supposed to be back after the all star break. But really he’s been hurt so not sure what you are getting. I’d love to get Castillo but he’s gonna cost too much in terms of prospects. I think the dbacks are another team. Could trade for gallen who still has multiple years left on his deal. Marquez if you believe getting him out of coors would make a huge difference. His stuff is still very good. He’s more of a 2-3 starter but his era at coors is bad. Pretty sure the pirates are also trading Jose Quintana
July 11, 20224 yr I still don't get how a farm system can be so bad, for so long, bereft of talent.....I mean you'd think you could Gump your way to a couple good/great picks! I mean you almost have to try and be that bad!

I mean you almost have to try and be that bad! Maybe it’s turning around. We do have some guys like o’hoppe, painter, Abel and McGarry
July 12, 20224 yr We were fortunate to win 2 of 4 against the cardinals. Our offense was miserable all series. Scored 8 runs in 4 games. Bohm is just another injury added on to the mounting injuries. All star break can’t get here fast enough. Just hope they can manage to go something like 3-2 over the next 5

The Phillies just wither and die. Maybe next year will be the year they break the drought!

I didn’t really think it would go over very well in here.

Gibson has been hit or miss for about a two month period. Suarez is injured and has never pitched this many innings as a starter. eflin always hurt and not reliable. You need a starter whether or not eflin and Ranger Suarez come back because we don’t know how long they’re gonna stay healthy or what they’re going to give you. Sitting around until the deadline you are hurting yourself by hoping your bullpen can give you these long type of games. Just go out and make a move for a starter even if it’s a minor one so you don’t kill your bullpen by august

Just lost to the dbacks last night. Cardinals have the dodgers up next. Phillies can likely get to the all star break within 2-3 games or tied for the last spot. They also have a schedule leading up to the deadline of 3 vs. cubs, 3 vs. atlanta, 4 at pirates. I think they likely are within 3 games of that spot.

I just don’t know how they score any runs with how bad castellanos is and now without bohm for at least a week I’m sure

They need realmuto and castellanos to figure it out. I’d actually try to make a move where i get a pitcher and center fielder in a one trade. I think you could pull it off with a team like the dbacks, royals or Rockies. Rockies could get someone like Marquez who could thrive outside of coors cause his stuff is still good. And get a leadoff guy like Diaz so schwarber can move to 3rd or cleanup til harper comes back. Dbacks could get gallen or Kelly with Peralta or if willing to pay more marte. Royals Go big after benintendi and get Brady singer as the starter.
