Phillies Mets pitching matchups...
Wheeler vs walker
Nola vs carrasco
Gibson vs hill

This looks like a definite advantage for Phillies. We could use 2 of 3 this weekend with our best 3 starters going

 

[msstate7]

I was getting ready to enjoy the Phillies losing this one.

We all were. Damn Cubs

 

[NYCBrave]

12-8 Phillies

Hopefully this game doesn't get the Phillies going

It's their Baltimore game

Fangraphs has braves at 81.2% in east fwiw

Higher than me, I say we are FINNISH. Just waiting on the final death blow.

You guys need to stop worrying about the Phillies and Mets. The only team you need to worry about is the Braves. And there’s legitimate reason for concern. If the Phillies or Mets win the division, it’s because the Braves didn’t get it done. Nothing else.

10 of our last 17 games are vs teams fighting for a playoff/division spot... 13 if you count Mets.

3 of the Phillies last 16 are vs teams fighting for playoffs... 6 if you count Mets

 

[msstate7]

I think the braves hold on; but it's bc I have I confidence in the braves... I just think the Phillies are gonna keep losing games they should win

The Phillies also have that last series @ Miami. They typically play poorly there and the Marlins are a pesky team with their elite pitching

Or, and here me out, the Braves could just win these games against terrible ass opponents.

The D’Backs are the only terrible team they have left.

When i said 40%, i meant i was 60% confident that an Georgia sports team would blow it themselves, not get overtaken by good play by NYM or Phil.

Thing are really tightening up for the second NL Wild Card. Cincy, STL, and San Diego all within 1.5 games. Throw in second place from the NL East and whoa!

There’s a rumor that Bryce Elder will be our starter on Tuesday

Why?

Who would have to be cut off 40-man? Please say tomlin

 

[msstate7]

Hopefully SF ends any hope for SD this week before we play the Padres. Padres are 3.5 out 2nd WC... hanging on by a thread

My calculations may be off, but I'm only counting the 40 man roster is only at 36 currently. You could also easily move Vogt to 60 day DL
