Folty flexed his elbow at the plate. Didn't like it.

AZ scores again - 4-3 Phils

He’s been doing it a lot this season, even when he’s on the mound. Something is definitely not right with him still.

Folty pretty much has to be pulled now. He really needs to go to the IR as well.

I mean, is the entirety of his starts this season not a big enough sample size?

Concerning yes. Panic no. I do think they rushed him back to pitching. Nothing is crisp enough this year. Just not getting swings and misses. At least not while I am watching.

Phiiiies score 2 more, take a 6-3 lead in 5th

Thanks Folty. Just as I said that.

I'm still very much on the Foltynewicz hype-train, but I have to think the bone-spurs are a bigger issue than either he or the team is allowing. Would help account for why his slider is so lacking this season.

Foltys issues make me believe we are not done looking for starting pitching help

It's worked out pretty well for that guy. He's gone places.
