Hope the draft class next year is good Maybe we should draft a college senior with our first pick so we actually have pool money (sorry, kinda bitter that we may not sign him)

2 more solid relievers? Haha

I was basically expecting to get swept, so I’m ok with this

I probably sounded sarcastic but I was actually agreeing with you. It’s basically like he might go 1-5 and hoping that the 1 is a HR

He did hit a HR that blew open the game in St Louis, but yeah

Ah, thanks. I had no idea.

Because they injured Freddie? Even if it's a "fake" injury because he knows they're gonna lose. Not like Teheran throws hard enough to hurt anyone anyway. For clarity, I don't actually want them to throw at Stanton unless Sabathia hits another guy.

I honestly didn't understand how Newcomb had a problem last night compared to normal home games either, but every time he tipped his cap, like a liter of sweat dripped off. I thought it was raining for a sec.

Hope so. Announcing crew haven't really said anything other than "Ooh, was hoping Freeman could stay in after that and was just going into the locker room to take practice swings".

+7 run diff is pretty much coasting. For comparison, we're still at +81, Yankees are at +112. All other teams around the Phillies' run differential (Rays, Cardinals) have like 3 less wins (all of this is probably as of last night). Their pythagorean record has them at .500 (42-41). We "should"...

That makes me think their gun is slightly off, haha

That's a good point as well.

Especially since we had Heyward, Flowers, and Freeman all burned for an extended period of time, so it benefits teams to hit players (even if it's an accident). It doesn't seem to get replacement level guys. It seems to get the Bryant/Springer/Justin Turner types since they're harder to pitch to.

Pitchers injure enough people by throwing at them that I think they should have to sit out if they do it at a really high rate.

Maybe if you have like 20, get banned for a month? I dunno. It's ridiculous though to have more than 2 in one game. At that point it's a real danger to be a hitter.

How many more guys does Sabathia have to hit before we storm the mound? Like 4?

Markakis’ homer was pretty lucky

Newk was a lot closer to 4 before today, but yeah. He’s gonna have to be super rare to make it.

Very true

it sure is easy to follow contract negotiations with how consistent callis is
