Featured Replies

Quintana and Mikolas games 1 and 2.  Should be some good pitching duels.

Imagine if vierling wasn’t playing in that Mets game with the defensive play/throw he made. Might not be playing still

Or if they won all the games they blew early in the season.  Would’ve clinched a lot sooner

I mean going 0-10 against the rangers and cubs is ridiculous. If they just go 4-6 they are in way long ago but playing the Mets.

I’m not opposed. Vierling been hot. Not even a knock on marsh he’s played great since the trade really.

It makes sense as vierling is hitting .295 vs. lefties and marsh since coming to the Phillies is only .174 vs. lefties

if this was a young team, i would have something to look forward to, problem is you have money on aging players, wheeler could lose a step from his injuries, nola is nola, he's not cole hamels, he could really suck next year. every player we have on this roster that's good is aging and inconsistent besides schwarber, if we cant move on from some of these players, this might be the only time we make the playoffs, there's no young talent on this roster to build from. 07 phillies didnt have aging talent that's why we went on a long run.

What the hell are you talking about?

The Phillies are in the bottom half of the league for average age (17th overall) 

They only have 2 players over the age of 32 (Gibson, 34 and Robertson, 37)and both of those guys probably won't be here next year. 

Harper, Schwarber, Hoskins, Nola,Suarez, Dominguez, Alvarado, Bohm, Stott are all under 30. Castellanos is 30. Realmuto is 31 Wheeler is 32.

They have the #1 pitching prospect in all of baseball on the doorstep. 

The core of this team is either in their primes or just entering it. 

This is a significantly younger team than the 2008 squad. (They only had 4 players under the age of 28 - Hamels, Victorino, Madson and Kendrick.)

They have $83 million in payroll coming off the books next season and they'll probably sign multiple top free agents. 

Yeah, things are terrible..... 

 

Still irritated with the ridiculous start time this afternoon.

I said at the deadline it was a shame the Indians were winning their division and likely to make the playoffs cause theres a good chance they are gonna eventually deal Bieber. Unless he takes a team friendly deal he’s gonna get paid more than what cleveland usually pay cause of the market and his contract runs out of arbitration in 2024. I wouldn’t trade painter for him but i would do McGarry and Abel to get him as Bieber is only 27 years old and just had a 2.88 ERA, 200 IP, 198 Ks to 36BB, a 1.04 WHIP and a 3.6 WAR. If you had wheeler, Bieber, nola, painter and Suarez that’s a ridiculously nasty rotation if painter is as good as advertised. 

Dug this up from last time. Also have my 2008 division clinching game rally towel hanging near the tv.

That's what you want from your leadoff hitter.

Gotta love that f bomb 

Bats in late season form… Quintana with a 6 pitch inning 

What a wasted opportunity with two men on. Can't blow them and expect to win.

Hoskins and schwarber not coming through hurts. Hoskins really has looked bad for about a week now outside of one game against the cubs

Schwarber just watching it reminded me of Howard the last time they faced the Cards in the playoffs

I really hope they let stott be the leadoff guy next year. I think he’s better suited and since his horrible start he’s looked solid. Also when they let him when schwarber got hurt he raked. 

Nice play by Bohm

Bats need to wake the F up. 

Not ideal that our 1-5 hitters are 0-6 

I can't even blame the bats so far today Quintana has been awesome missing bats and painting the corners.

He was pitching really well for the pirates before they dealt him. Could’ve had him but we waited and the cardinals made a nice move. 

That said the cards have hit some balls today i thought were going to travel way further than they ultimately did.

Yeah, need to try to put the ball on the ground today. Going to be extremely tough to hit one out.
