GDT 4/24/26: Braves vs Phillies - Interesting Lineup Adjustment

Funny thing about last night. I was watching and when acuna hit his homer I was like sweet tie game. Went to the restroom and took a quick Riley and got back and Acuna was still rounding the bases.
 
You can write off anyone in April. But, man. The Phillies just look bad and old.

They won't do it, but they should sell at the deadline. Wheeler would be able to bring back a strong package if he can prove he's still a TOR starter. Realmuto might bring back a solid prospect or 2. Luzardo and Duran too.
 
If this keeps up the division could over in a month. Strider, Waldrep, SS2x Murphy, and Kim all coming back makes it even worse on everybody else. AA did a great job on depth this offseason.

Careful, there’s a carefully crafted narrative at stake here that AA did nothing.😀

Don't forget we have to trade someone to the DL to compensate.

With 3 SP coming back I'd send Holmes and Lopez both to the BP to cut down on innings and strengthen the BP. Fuentes should no doubt be a weapon coming out of the BP in the 2nd half if the rotation is completely healthy. Farmer and Mateo will probably get sent down when Murphy and Kim get back.

Do you think they keep Heim over Mateo?

It will be interesting to see how that plays out.

Think they have a harder time trading folks. JT is basically market value Harper has 5-120+ after thus years 27. Wheeler might not be healthy the rest of the year. TOS is hard to come back from. Schwarb and turner are under water big time

Even if they get a few prospects, they have a long way to go to build anything respectable. Dark times headed their way.
 
in honor of Brian Snitker night, tonight Weiss should:

Leave the starting 9 in the entire game
Leave his starter in way too long to try to get him that elusive "W"
Use low leverage relievers if the team is trailing by 1 or 2
Take a nap between the 3rd and 5th innings


Kidding.
 
Yeah the Phillies are looking old and Bohm is terrible. They have a lot of issues over there and they won't be able to out spend them bc they had to much locked in already.

I think they're living proof of pressure from the fan base leads to making bad decisions. That Realmuto deal was dumb along with Nola deal....They should have backed the truck up for Suarez.
