not 100% perhaps

Checked in from the Eagles game
And checked out

At least the birds played well

Wheeler tonight. Need to take this one.

Ranger's fall is concerning from a playoff rotation standpoint. Help us Sanchez, you're our only hope

He'll be in the bullpen in the NLDS and then the #4 in the NLCS & WS. I would hope Ranger + The Bullpen can at least give us a chance to win a Game 4 in each series.

If they clinch the top seed I really think you have to start Sanchez in game 2. In a 7 game series it allows him to pitch all of them at CBP. His splits are so drastic there.

 

[Halladay]

Sosa is back. Buddy was optioned.

 

[DancingPanther]

Hope it didn't earn him a spot in the rotation lol

Oh look, it earned him a spot in the rotation. I'm sure this has nothing to do with all the money he's making and by how he's a "veteran"

Gotta have it tonight behind Wheeler. Would be a shame to falter a bit on the heels of those rousing wins against the Mets

 

[Rebels57]

Johnson, Phillips, and Allard combined for 6 IP, 21 H, 18 ER the last 3 starts by the 5th spot in the rotation. Thats why Walker is back..

 

[deadhead]

Walker's velocity was up a notch in his last 3 inning gig, 92-93.
Problem is his bread and butter pitch, his splitter, has gone south.

It's only for 2 starts. Winning one of the next two will essentially clinch the bye
Which I care more about than finishing with the top seed.

 

[DancingPanther]

The Brewers can clinch the central during this series. Next 2 games especially will be a grind.

 

[Rebels57]

Phils just got jobbed on a challenge at 2nd and Topper cant even be bothered to go and out talk to the ump about it. Lazy ass.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

How the hell did they keep that call?

 

[Rebels57]

The Phillies have made a lot of mediocre starting pitchers look excellent the past week.

Can I borrow the credit card if I don’t get picked?

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Can I borrow the credit card if I don’t get picked?

My credit card is tapped due to these assholes.

20% of 2025 due on 9/16, 50% of all possible playoff games due on 9/19, and 50% of playoffs due on 10/5.

Just an absurd process. They don’t even lower the second payment if they don’t play in the wild card round.

 

[Svechhammer]

Castellanos drew a walk... In September?!?

You know what, Ive never been to CBP. Why not throw my name into the hat

 

[DancingPanther]

Would be an enormous win considering what's going on around the league. 6 more outs fellas

 

[Halladay]

For all the injuries that the Braves have had its incredible Sale didn't get hurt this year. He's deservedly going to win the Cy Young but Wheeler had a Cy Young caliber season as well. He's a machine.

 

[DancingPanther]

Nice one
