Other Sports: Philadelphia Phillies: The Road To .500 (2024 Edition)

Never gonna convince me that they can’t get another bullpen arm or two.

 

[Adam Warlock]

Big win. Avoiding a sweep was a must.

Dombrowski really doesn’t need to go in the deadline desperate. No trading more than 1 top tier prospect. I expect maybe a minor depth trade or two. Not a lot of holes on this team. Bullpen or outfield upgrade would be nice.

Its weird how you hear about excessive force by police all the time, but security guards allowed to go HAM lol.

Like at the end there was 2 guys on top this dude,another 3 holding him down and bro was like 140 pounds soaking wet.

If this had been that same guy running out of 7/11 with some Skittles and police did that it would be circulating around as brutality.

If all they added was a Pham 4th of platoon right handed bat. I would be ok with it.

Now if they added a bellinger and cost wasn't crazy, I sure wouldn't complain

Since he was banned from the Phillies' stadium, I'll drop this article here...

Nice to see Cataldi (at least) call a spade a spade about having to speak about Eskin at 94WIP (even if not outright condeming it).

In the 90’s in the WCW you had fans that would hit the ring on the NWO all the time. I have no idea why given pretty much all of them roided up monsters & came up through the territories where the standard was if a fan jumps the barricade you put them in the hospital or risk losing your job.

After last night i'm convinced they should add Mason Miller or another power righty. Alvarado cannot be trusted against the best righties unfortunately. Kerkering is still so young that having to rely on him in the 8th against a teams best righties could hurt them again. This team is having too good of a season to leave anything to chance.

If we add Ian Happ for the OF and Mason Miller, I don't see this team losing to anyone.

The amount of trash, soda/beer cans and stuff thrown at the ring in those days lol. Now some fan throws a plastic bottle they are banned for life and charged with assault.

Which I'm not saying I want fans throwing shit, but it always amuses me the reactions of today's players to stuff that is SOFT AS HELL compared to what players/performers in the past had to go though.

[Rebels57]

Checks out.

 

[wankstifier]

Should they go after a corner OF or a CF? Or maybe both?

 

[trostol]

Depends on what they are comfortable with giving up

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

May be time to start worrying about this guy though.

we still blaming London?

 

[flyershockey]

They must have the racquetballs in tonight.

 

[Flybynite]

Are Phillies tv announcers even on this Atlanta trip? They didn't work Friday (Apple TV) and now tonight it's a Fox broadcast crew lol.

 

[Svechhammer]

Yeah this is how I expected this series to go

Our lineup needs to get healthy and the pitchers desperately need JT back

I've been advocating for JT using a pitchcom in secret while Stubbs/Marchan have fake ones.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Making the Phillies bleed.

Fun series
