Not Soto's fault

Eh i don’t like the decision to go with Soto in that scenario with having Alvarado who just had a day off. With the game in the balance need to go Alvarado and try to keep it at 2-1. Soto isn’t he guy you want in there when you have a better option. I get bad fielding by marsh but it’s still a poor decision to choose Soto over Alvarado. 

Everyone relax, Walker pitches friday

I think the Dahl story has run its course. He is 2 for his last 27. And 1 for his last 18.

Braves have 3 against the Yankees. Hopefully the Yankees sweep. Phillies need to beat a banged up dbacks team coming up and struggling tigers and marlins afterward. Cause the Braves July and beginning August is easier than the Phillies. Phillies play 12 consecutive games against first place teams (currently) from July 26 to August 7 and 15 straight vs currently playoff teams from July 22 to August 7. 

phillies July-mid August: 3 at cubs, 3 at Braves, 3 vs. dodgers, 3 vs. A’s, 3 at pirates, 3 at twins, 3 vs cleveland, 3 vs. Yankees, 3 at Seattle, 3 at dodgers and 4 at dbacks

Braves  july-Mid August: 3 vs. SF, 3 vs. Phillies, 4 at dbacks, 3 at padres, 3 vs. cardinals, 3 vs. reds, 4 at Mets, 3 at brewers, 4 vs. Marlins, 3 vs brewers and 3 at Rockies.

Are you trying to make me feel more negative ? -_-

No i just think by mid-August this race is going to be 3-4 games and not the 10 they had. Braves were always going to right the ship. To me the next 10 games are games the Phillies have to win. Not 10-0 but they should go 7-3 at worse. Dbacks are banged up, tigers aren’t very good and the marlins are terrible. Braves have 3 at Yankees, 3 at cardinals, 1 at white Sox and 3 vs. pirates. The Phillies should be able to extend the lead if they handle their business cause i don’t see the Braves going 8-3 over that stretch but the Phillies should be able too 

Yeah definitely losing Friday’s game

Nah, Phils will get at least one 

This! Like I’ve said they are going to be fine for the regular season. There’s enough bad teams and mediocre teams that they’re gonna take advantage of and win a lot of games. When you get to the postseason, you are gonna run into potentially the same problem you had games three through game seven of the NLCS. Where if you’re not hitting home runs and you can’t do the things like hit well enough with runners in scoring position it’s going to catch up to you. Their biggest flaw right now is that their outfield is not good enough or consistent. Brandon marsh is about the most consistent and they don’t play him regularly against left-handed pitching. They need to go out and make a big move. 

 

Good news gallen isn’t coming off IL til next week 

 

Interesting commentary about the Outfielders in the National League leading up to the All Star selections.

Outfield: Umm ...

OK, this is a little awkward. When I ran through the NL outfielder stats, only one player stood out, and he is a huge surprise: Jurickson Profar, who was one of the worst-hitting regulars in baseball last season with the Rockies (and briefly with the Padres). This season, he's hitting over .300 and leads the NL in OBP. After that, it gets a little murky. Fernando Tatis Jr. gets the second nod; he's been fine, but nothing like his 2019-2021 numbers. I went with Teoscar Hernandez as my third starter. The reserve choices are almost nonexistent.

What's happened to lead to this? Well, Acuña got injured. Betts has moved to the infield. Soto moved to the AL. Harper is long gone from the outfield. Carroll has struggled to get his OPS over .600. Bellinger has been just OK and missed time with an injury. Seiya Suzuki missed a big chunk of time. Michael Harris II hasn't hit much. Castellanos and Lourdes Gurriel Jr. made it last year and both have sub-.300 OBPs this year. I've never seen such a leaguewide lack of stars in the outfield.

 

 

Luckily Montgomery stinks this year almost as much as Walker so we have a chance tonight.
