Rooker making his case to be a Phillie. He’s 4-7 so far this series. 

Amazes me how Stott gets a free pass in this city

Makes sense Castellanos hit a homer today… Richard Simmons died. He tends to go yard when famous people die. 
 

love stott but he shouldn’t be batting 5th. It should’ve be marsh who hits RHP at a .302 clip. All 3 pitches weren’t close the Fing zone on that K. 

Maybe he can hit a homer for DR Ruth Next

Is Painter gonna be on the Phillies next year? If he’s not traded before then

Rojas is averaging 1 homer a month. So likely finishes with 5-6 cause he got sent down in June.

He looks like he’s never played baseball in his life with some of these at bats.

In his defense he’s hitting .292 with RISP and he was really good last year. I think he’s having issues with whatever he tried to change in the off-season. Also wouldn’t be surprised if is having issues managing being a first time father to a newborn and playing

I value your opinion but I am not optimistic about his future, but I could just be overly negative

His 2023 was good. .280/.331/.747 15 HRs, 62 RBI and 31 SB

some of this goes back to the fact, he’s not a five hole hitter. He’s hitting .209 this year out of that spot. And for his career he’s hitting .213. Meanwhile this year he’s hitting .260 and .333 out of the 6th and 7th spot. Just leave him in the 6th or 7th spot. His career numbers indicate besides cleanup the 5 hole is his worst spot. For his career best avg is 6 hole where he hits .313 and then 2 hole at .298. Not moving Turner out of 2 so keep stott at 6th or 7th spot.

And people will sau it doesn’t really matter that much. You should be able to hit anywhere. But the issue is when you’re in the five hole you’re expected to drive guys in guys and not necessarily be setting the table and not as much pressure as lower in the lineup. That’s right in the heart of the order and he is not a big RBI guy. that’s not who he is. It should be casty.

This kid is already better than that bum Walker.

I’d be willing to bet at some point in time the Phillies are going to go to a six man rotation. Whether or not wheeler likes it or not, I think they’re gonna try to rein innings back and keep them fresh.

That was actually a decent at bat by Stott until he swung at the last pitch. He worked himself into a good count then decided to swing at crap 

Can we trade Walker for Rooker? Two birds one stone...

Rooker is basically just out here saying trade for me please. I’m 5-8 in the series 

 

Kerkering has been bad his last two appearance. Could only get 1 out vs. dodgers and today struggling with the same thing which is no control and very hittable. Last two appearances he’s faced 7 batters and has gotten 3 outs while giving up 4 hits

Credit to Soto. He’s turned his season around. Since June 1st his era is under 1.20.
