Other Sports: Philadelphia Phillies: The Road To .500 Continues Into Red October (2024 Edition)

[LegionOfDoom91]

Two more years after this one of Castellanos’ contract.

 

[Svechhammer]

It's like the playoffs all over again.

Topper can't get out of his own way sometimes. Complete mismanaged loss

 

[Halladay]

That was odd, oh well.

Middleton says he doesn't care about money if it helps them win. If so, prove it and DFA Casty

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Should have ran into the ball.

You play to win the game.

 

[DancingPanther]

The weakest came up weak today, then one of the best fumbles. Won't win much like that. Team would be in a golden spot if they could upgrade the bridge bullpen guys. Soto isn't it

I wouldn’t hold your breath there.

 

[Halladay]

Cant wait for when Rob is asked about why he brought Soto in he will say cause I trust him.

 

[FLYguy3911]

That was an impressive way to end it.

 

[Flybynite]

Phillies out lolmet'd the Mets.

 

[1865]

Home after a brilliant weekend, there won’t be many quite that enjoyable!

A bit of a sour way to end it, but that’s what you get when you have to rely on Nick to do anything. Can’t wait for him to not be a Phillie.

 

[Rebels57]

I'm still mad.

Florida reliever throws 4 innings yesterday and comes back and is throwing 4+ again today. Kid that sits mid 90s in currently sitting at 90. College coaches are the worst.

That's why stance for the last 30+ years has always been that a HS pitcher drafted by an MLB team and getting any kind of six figure signing bonus should go with the MLB team. You get the bonus and you get tuition reimbursement from the MLB college plan.

College coaches DO NOT GIVE A SHIT what happens to your arm. PERIOD. They care about their job.

 

[Halladay]

I'm still mad.

This teams warts showed themselves today Soto, Nick, Rob's questionable bullpen management but they braves just lost 3/4 to the Nationals this weekend as they did a couple weeks ago. The phillies actually gained a game on them since Thursday. Would be a historic choke if the Phillies blow this division lead of 9 games.

The franchise choked away a 6.5 game lead with 12 games to play. 9 game lead in June is nowhere near historic choke territory for them.

 

[Flybynite]

Now that explains all the double-plays today. Dude cursed the team.

 

[Halladay]

That was 60 years ago though. I would be very surpised if they dont win the division barring major injuries. Go look at the Braves offensive numbers since about May 1st or so. It isnt pretty. Plus Acuna is now out. The Phillies pitching is too good not get them over the line to me.

That's disgusting

 

[FLYguy3911]

That's disgusting

He later said the kid went to him and said he wanted to pitch but that’s where a coach should be an adult. It wasn’t even a must win game for them.

 

[wankstifier]

Darren Fletcher should've been the play-by-play guy instead of Michael Kay. English voices were almost nonexistent in the broadcasts.

I don’t think it’s wise to use the phrase “historic choke” in connection with the Phillies. Some of us were alive in 1964.

Every single competitor would say that. Obviously, not every coach would oblige. We don't need to do much analyzing to figure out which type of coaches would care and which wouldn't

 

[PDX Flyer]

Less than one year in, Adam Wainwright is my favorite color guy in decades. It can't be this hard to find knowledgeable people who don't hate the game they're selling.

Have you listened to Ben McDonald with the O’s. He is the best I’ve heard in a long time as well. Really knowledgeable, passionate and has a great “voice”

He is covering the college playoffs as well.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

I’m honestly amazed there’s people out there that defend this jerkoff.
