August 24, 20224 yr I refuse to get excited about a Phillies prospect just about until they win an MVP or Cy Young award. The better they look, the worse they turn out. But Painter...jeez. It's amazing how nobody can touch his stuff. I hate to mention it in the same post, but the Tommy John epidemic (and it is an epidemic), is just fascinating. There is decent data that higher use young pitchers are at higher risk, but the incidence is just exploding. Young pitchers that throw hard throw fewer innings, enjoy less longevity, less sustained year-over-year velocity than in prior generations...despite increasing bubble wrap.

Sounds like Marsh could be back shortly after his IL time is up (as soon as Friday): https://www.nbcsports.com/philadelphia/phillies/phillies-injury-updates-seranthony-dominguez-kyle-schwarber-brandon-marsh?amp They can’t drop Hans Zimmer fast enough.

I wonder if they drop Munoz and keep zimmer as they can do late game defensive replacement in the outfield where zimmer is better than Munoz in the outfield.

August 24, 20224 yr Set up perfectly to gain some ground again tonight with the Padres losing and Brewers playing the Dodgers. Going against a guy with a 13 ERA. Can’t wait to see how they mess it up

August 25, 20224 yr They tried their best to blow that game yesterday…nothing like struggling to beat the Reds
August 25, 20224 yr They should give Harper a little longer and let him finish his scheduled rehab assignment. We should be ok without him this weekend.
