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

[Gregor Samsa]

Phillies and chasing pitches…

 

[BiggE]

JFC Nick, do you need glasses?

 

[djw99]

Castellanos just mouthed. "these fu''ing people'.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Turner and Casty are getting sliders all series.

bump.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Castellanos is such a loser.

 

[Magua]

Lmao at that guy comparing Castellanos to Werth 2 weeks ago.

 

[Gregor Samsa]

Pitiful offense. I’m not sure how it can be fixed as it’s good on paper and was good during the season. They just aren’t good in individual at-bats against top pitchers

 

[Halladay]

Thompson has no clue what to do.

It's not his fault here. Game 4 last year was though he may get sacked for this.

 

[djw99]

lets try to steal more. OOPs I guess that doesn't work either.

 

[Gregor Samsa]

Yeah, I’m out. Batters just needed to not go ice cold and they did

 

[Magua]

 

[FLYguy3911]

As much as people like to talk about home field advantage at CBP, when shit isn't going well everyone's butthole gets so tight. Can just feel the negative energy.

 

[GKJ]

Whether it's his fault or not, if the Phillies lose this series, Thomson is getting fired. The kid gloves are coming off the good vibes clubhouse. In fact, Dombrowski should go in there and threaten to bring back Girardi.

 

[BringBackHakstol]

Probably shouldn't have tried to steal when a fastball was likely

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

You can probably take solace in that Realmuto likely wasn’t doing anything there anyway.

 

[litflyersfan]

Can Sosa play the outfield? Put Bohm in and Sosa to the outfield. Need to get Casty the f**kn out of this game, maybe even the series. Such an easy out.

 

[Halladay]

Imagine a team that thinks they can win the World Series batting Nick 4th .

 

[BringBackHakstol]

Castellanos just mouthed. "these fu''ing people'.

This guy is a clown, I can't recall a Phillie I hated more than this dumbass

 

[Gregor Samsa]

Get Wilson or Clemens in the game. They need to try something different cause this isn’t working

 

[FLYguy3911]

Please throw him hard in.

 

[Sombastate]

it’s pretty simple, the Mets are the better team. Better pitching, hitting, base running and defense.

Checks all the way down

 

[Svechhammer]

I’m far from a Thompson fan but what is there to do when your top players are coming up small in the playoffs again?

It's about coaching to instill some discipline at the plate. It's a joke that this lineup goes this cold in the postseason like this. They swing at f***ing everything and it's long past the coaches to have fixed it.

Also, his bullpen management is atrocious

 

[djw99]

look what vientos is doing vs. Stott. what young talent do we have?

 

[Halladay]

They aren't a better pitching team, the rest I agree with. JT, Nick, Trea are too free swinging.

That’s what they employ. How many free swinging guys aren’t in their lineup? Like Schwarber & Stott? The latter which has sucked at the plate this year regardless.
