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

[Rebels57]

He's having a bad week. His ERA before the Marlins game was .86. Regression is due. Still a very good reliever.

ERA is around 5 in his last 7 games. Its more than a week. He just needs to start getting guys to chase more.

 

[Rebels57]

Another series W!

Lets pick up a sweep tomorrow with 2 tough series coming up

Im no longer enjoying Wheeler starts like I used to. Something is off with him.

He's tired of handing leads to the bullpen.......

The Braves lost 2/3 to the Giants while the Phillies won 2/3 at Wrigley. Only way this weekend is terrible is if the Braves sweep (I dont think they will). if the Phillies get a game have to feel really well about them.

I agree, these next two series are difficult. They finish before break with a bad A's team. The Braves however are a game under .500 since May 1, that's a significant amount of time to be playing such a way. I think they have lost 27 straight games when the opponent has scored 4 runs or more. That's ridiculous.

Lulz at Bohm doing the Derby.

Lulz at Bohm doing the Derby.

It's lost about 80% of its muster, and it all has to do with how lame the rules are now

The time thing is dumb. Go back to 10 strikes per round. Also eliminate the H2H and just do a 1st round AL, 1st round NL with the winner advancing.

It's too dragged out. It's too much about altering your swing style to be non-game like.

3 of the 4 Finalists last season have been struggling since.

Julio Rodriguez, Randy Arozarena, Luis Robert Jr.

 

[Flybynite]

Hopefully Bohm just swings like he normally does so then the kids in the outfield can get a lot of work in lol

Julio Rodriguez, Randy Arozarena, Luis Robert Jr.

Rodriguez after the home run derby last season: .308/.363/.578, 19 homers. Has had a tough year this year but I can't imagine it's because of a homer competition which didn't hamper him at all that season

Robert: got hurt in the second half, also has been hurt this year. Hit .251/.291/.498 after the derby. Still hit 12 homers before his season ended in September

Arozarena has always been overarozarated. Last season he was carried by a huge March/April where he hit 1/3rd of his homers and batted .330. He had a good bounceback August after slumping before the all star break.

Would be fun to beat these guys I tell ya hwut

Can usually listen to the local broadcast on Apple+ but its not working.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Oh Nola with 95 in his back pocket is pitching tonight.

 

[Rebels57]

Whit is f***ing atrocious. Just cost them a run with terrible base-running.

Bad read on the Marchan single. Bad read on the bunt.

Remember when we had Whitmania shoved down our throats before the season?

Seriously...this guy was played up like he was Utley-lite. He hasnt done shit despite the oppurtunity.

Just another example of if the first thing said about you is "he plays the right way!" it probably means you arent that good...

 

[Rebels57]

This is the last game I watch that Merrifield starts
