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

[JojoTheWhale]

Which one?

Yes.

(The one on the hands to strike out Ortega.)

 

[Halladay]

Excellent pick DD.

 

[Flybynite]

Magic # to eliminate Arizona: 2
Magic # to eliminate Chicago: 1
Magic # to eliminate Miami: 1

Magic # to clinch top WC: 2

Clinch a playoff spot with a Phillies win or Chicago/Miami loss.

Only Arizona plays tomorrow (in a makeup against the Yankees). So no clinching of anything possible until Tuesday.

Orion sure has a fun sweeper

 

[GKJ]

So is Lorenzen now definitely a bullpen arm, or is he going to be the bullpen game guy who pitches the second time through the order?

 

[wankstifier]

Dunno, team seems decent

 

[Halladay]

Btw, Charlie Morton is out the NLDS. Fried should be fine by then though.

 

[saophim]

I know it was against Narvaez,Batty, Ortega, who cant hit, but holy hell what a debut by Kerkering, 12-9. This looked good.

You know you have a nasty pitch when guys get fooled when you hang it.

Ball does a course correction with thrusters.

"Hi, yes, I'd like to report a UFO sighting."

 

[deadhead]

He's got a pretty good slider, but not sure about that FB.
How he's gonna get people out throwing 100 MPH on the inside edge of the plate?

 

[Halladay]

The playoffs essentially start tonight in Seattle with the Astros and Mariners. Winner of that series most likely ends up as a wildcard team.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Sco Yanks.

Ew, I need a shower.

BBCIB. Gouge my eyes out.

That must be the bat he used to gather his first bunt base hit

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Kruk tweeted his back in the booth tomorrow so I guess he’s not done.

 

[Flybynite]

He don't got that dog in him.

 

[wankstifier]

Was thinking the Phillies should sign Hader in the off-season.

 

[Halladay]

The Astros are going to make the playoffs now, the Mariners have been terrible in September.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

He don't got that dog in him.

Remember that time Bob Melvin didn't bring him in in the 8th inning of Game Five of the NLCS to face Harper?

 

[saophim]

Btw. Astros were 2-7 against KC (even swept at home) and OAK in September. Verlander was good yesterday. Lets see how the rest of their rotation performs. They were terrible lately too..

Harper would have taken Hader even deeper. He's a mutt.
