I mean, this is par for the course with this team. But hey, let's just run it back for the 3rd straight season and hope things will change. Lol, and Bohm just swung at a pitch in the other batters box. 🤣

Frankly i think they barely make the playoffs and lose in the WC round. This team in the bullpen might be worse. With Ranger out it’s essentially the same staff as Ranger was good first half of the year and just replaced him with luzardo. And their offense is basically the same add in Kepler who’s a platoon player at this stage of his career. 
 

also nothing like completely finished realmuto batting 4th and hitting .083

Batting JT in the cleanup spot pisses me off too. Sometimes I wonder if Thomson is trying to pull a Tortorella and get fired when I see him making the same stupid ass decisions. 

JT could be cooked as a hitter. He might be finally breaking down. He needs to be pushed down in the order ASAP.

Schwarbomb!!!!!!!

Sosa came up big there.

I think he is cooked as a hitter. But I’ve been saying for the last two years when you look at his analytics of runners in scoring position, he has been getting worse over the last three years. Add on it hurts the protection of the guys in front of the lineup. It’s a dramatic drop off. The fact that they still think he is a middle of the lineup hitter when that’s when you need hitters to be consistent with runners in scoring position is ridiculous. He’s not that guy anymore. He’s probably fine if he’s your eight or nine hole hitter. But they keep batting him fourth and fifth and he’s not that anymore. Really they lack a consistent cleanup and 5 hole when casty is in a funk  

 

Good thing we didn't sign him

The need to resign Schwarber but find a new catcher

First season of trying to really watch Baseball and of course the Phillies are going to be my team. I’ve not managed to watch them yet though as they haven’t been televised over here yet.

Yeah I looked in to that but I’m not sure I’m ready yet to commit to paying another subscription.

Recently figured out the raspberry uncrustable is the best one

cool, that should give Bohm some more stuff to destroy when he has one of his temper tantrums

As long as the uncrustable is in the wrapper it’s still fine even if mangled  

These off days early in the season are annoying. The Friday one i can kind of see in case Thursday was rained out. To have one today is flat out stupid. 

Bases loaded, nobody out for the Phillies. Harper, Bohm, Schwarber all K. :facepalm:

Good news Rojas is 4-6 on the year. 

Edmundo Sosa is always really good April and May 

Sosa is awesome

Wheeler with another gem

Yep, that's what Rojas needs to do on a consistent basis. Base hits, bunt, fake bunt, hit the ball on the ground, take his walks, and he can use his speed to wreak havoc on the basepaths. He's looking damn good so far. Let's see if he can keep it up.

He definitely read my bold prediction a couple weeks back
