Other Sports: Philadelphia Phillies: The Road To .500 (2023 Edition)

[Rebels57]

When does the Schwarber experience end? I'm ready for it to end. Throw that annual money (and Nola's) at Shohei.

What a potent lineup this is. Mashed Williams around as expected

It was a 5 pitch AB. He took 4 strikes, 3 of which were down the middle and the other the ump missed. The only pitch he swung at? A ball at his shoe laces that he fouled off. What kind of strategy is this?

 

[Halladay]

All 6 losses to the Nationals this year will be by 1 run. Outscored them by over 40 runs but only 7-6. That is unlucky.

Good game learned a lot

Thankfully there's a new episode of Winning Time

Hasnt he been the least clutch hitter in all of baseball this season.

P.S. Phillies went 12-10 during the “easy” part of their schedule.

The Giants' schedule is hard. Now's the time

 

[DancingPanther]

Full confidence in Nola to start them off in as big a series in August that you'll see. It'll be nice and hot, and we know how much he loves pitching in the heat! He's said it himself! I can't think of a better pitcher to take the bump tonight

Wheeler's era vs WSH this season is 7.64. It happens

Find me a pitcher who doesn't have occasional blowups against bad offenses.

Blowing up is fine and unavoidable. Blowing up 3 out of 4 starts against Washington, a bottom tier offense, is now a trend.

He and Nola are definitely world series ready. Just gotta hope they get hot. Get in and anything can happen, that's what the Astros, Dodgers, and Braves say year after year isn't it?

 

[Taijuan Fedotov]

Pfft, what have those teams won lately?

Phillies pitcher Andrew Bellatti gets to apologize 13 years after a shattered family saved him

Bellatti crashed his speeding Mustang into the life of the Reid family in 2010, resulting in one death and a family left in pieces. They met again this spring.

how can he be a major leaguer after being in jail while he is 18 years old! I dont believe in 2nd chances with this things. But who iam.

 

[Ironmanrulez]

The team is doing anything to make us believe they are a 50:50 team.

I know they have a lot of ifs. But IF all come together i see the reach the World Series another year.

What is with all the injured players? Will they be back for the stretch run or the playoffs?
Will Harper be himself again in this final games and in the playoffs?
Will Nola and Wheeler finally wake up after a slow season?
Will Turner carry the team in every other game like he is able to do?

and so on


Lets dont give up! It could be another miracle!

 

[Adam Warlock]

Can we ever just get a line up with the 9 best players?

 

[Halladay]

Probably Nola's biggest start since the World Series. The Giants dont score many runs, so I expect many.

Keeping them fresh for the playoffs

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Lol.

 

[FatTugboatFlahr]

Someone tell me Nola is hurt.

 

[DancingPanther]

Someone tell me Nola is hurt.

Why would he be? It's the same thing as the last few seasons. Homer after homer. Dude is a poser. Easily my most hated Phillie ever

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Can’t help but laugh.

 

[djw99]

I don't know what's going on but it better change fast. It seems whowever we play knows the pitches that are coming. This is just like last night. and our batters have no clue. it's not a good recipe for success

 

[DancingPanther]

I never want to see Nola pitch for the Phillies again. He will next week, but I wish he wouldn't. He'll sign with the Astros or something to solidly him as 100% pure hateable for the masses

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

That’ll hurt the WHIP.

 

[trostol]

how are they losing already..the game just started lol
