May 12, 20242 yr 6 minutes ago, RoadToHell said: We’re gonna need another catcher I’m guessing it’s not coming til next year. They won’t use him in the playoffs unless something happens to realmuto. Frankly I’m surprised the Phillies haven’t drafted a catcher relatively high knowing JT realmuto is getting older and his contract is done in 2 years and Eduardo Tait is 17 and likely not close to the mlb for another 4 years according to most projections. We probably should’ve been drafting one relatively high after we dealt o’happe or knowing we were thinking about trading him away. So that when realmuto got to the end you had him ready or hopes of one to be ready
May 12, 20242 yr wtf is Bohm swinging at in that at bat. Literally only the 3rd pitch was remotely close to a strike of the first 4. then strikeout is a ball right down the middle that he doesn’t swing at

Completely froze him. Good pitch

Good pitch He got set up cause he gave bender two quick strikes swinging at absolute garbage in the first two pitches. Both pitches were in the other batters box. At that point you got to be swinging at anything close to the zone regardless of what you were expecting.

You have him in the bullpen now and he’s capable of being an innings eater and multiple innings. He only threw 18 pitches. You probably could’ve at least gotten one more inning out of him. And it would’ve pushed Alvarado, strahm then Hoffman back to the 8th, 9th and 10th. Instead, you were going to be forced to use Soto or Dominguez if you couldn’t get it done in 9.

Yeah they could've definitely gone another inning with Turnbull. I think bottom line for today overall is Zack had a bad day.

Yeah was wheeler’s biggest issue last year. His performances against the Nats were similar to his performance today against the marlins. Frankly you score 6 vs. Miami you easily should win that game. This marlins team is awful.

Wheels lost the game. 3-0 lead should’ve been over right there

May 13, 20242 yr Was at the game today. Down here for a work conference so got to squeeze it in. Honestly I felt somewhat bad for the 47 marlins fans that were there so I wasn’t too upset that we lost in extras.

I don't recall ever seeing the roof open during a Phillies game, or any game I've seen taking place there.

Cool in that it’s new and interesting with the roof and the huge windows in the outfield but you’re not really looking at anything worth seeing outside the windows. They had a nice marlins museum tucked away in one area, and a bobble head display of all these bobble heads from every team which was neat. Of the 8 baseball stadiums I’ve been to it’s probably towards the bottom though. Baseball is an outdoor sport…
May 13, 20242 yr Nice job by Stubbs on the bunt to get a run across. Unfortunately Rojas didn’t swing at the two best pitches prior and marsh hit it back to the pitcher on the first pitch

May 13, 20242 yr Looks like Turnbull might be replacing Snachez in the rotatio soon and Rojas is a terrible CF, bad break on the double and almost cost them a run with the bobble
