Nola versus Teheran. We should win the 1st game tonight with our ace leading the way. Phillies are hot.
The schedule is getting tougher in the next few weeks. Certain bats need to awaken in order to maintain the tempo! GO PHILLIES!

Same three starters for each team as in the opening series which they took 2-1. We need to pay them back for that 19 hit, 15-2 shellacking in the last game.

Monday's Lineup

S. Kingery, 2B
C. Santana, 1B
O. Herrera, CF
R. Hoskins, LF
A. Altherr, RF
JP Crawford, SS
M. Franco, 3B
J. Alfaro, C
A. Nola, P

That damn Odubel, waking into second instead of sliding, and gets called out. If only he would wake up and be professional instead of an ass. He does things like that so many times. :gaah:

Phillies will lose this game. No coming back in the 9th. Sixers are getting an ass whipping as well.
Not a good night for phillie fans.

This game represents what I posted about earlier. The Phillies will have a hard time winning against decent pitchers. Explosive innings will be a thing of the past. We can not rely on 3 run homers anymore. Santana must start hitting soon. I think he should be benched for at least 2 games. We need Hernandez leading off again.
IS ANYBODY LISTENING? FLEX!

Well, Teheran was really on today and I look at this as a game we could have won with better play from Herrera both on the bases and in the field. I know he hit a homer but He plays very abscent-minded frequently. Very bad after getting a five-year, $30 million deal.

Prediction. Phils come back to life for Pivetta and Vinnie, and take the next two. Of course that means, as northeast said, Santana gets off his fat ass and starts sacking the ball around. Alfaro and Franco, same goes. :mad2:

If flex is for real and the dildoes are indeed dead, they are going to have to find ways to beat good pitchers that the Braves and the Muts have this year as well as league-wide.

Fraudco needs to be sent down for his laziness and bullshit attitude. The guy is beginning to be an annoyance whose behavior is starting to kill us on a regular basis.

Yeah, Fraudco looked the old Fraudco last night. I thought he was coming out of it. Flex's taking him out of the lineup after those few hot days last week didn't help. Maybe he and Odubel should forget about the golden dreadlocks and get serious. They'd look better with the bald look anyway and it would increase their speed on the base paths.

Absolutely, Hernandez must lead off. I'm hoping that Santana isn't going to morph into Delmon. LOL.

I have Kingery on my bench with Hernandez at 2B and Lowrie at my utility....the way Kapler is using Kingery, it will take another 2 months to get a new eligibility, which is 20 games.

Kingery looks like a future star.

I still think Santana needs a day or two off to find his swing. Seems to be a mental block when it comes to
giving a guy some bench time just because he has a big salary. Howard was babied in the past. Just because he made big bucks!

Phillies down two to one in the 6th. Braves will score one or two more runs as Flex brings in at least 3 relievers to finish game. Phillies are done scoring. This game is over!

Phillies are done. They will lose a ton of games in the future. They have been taught to swing up instead of
meeting the ball and putting it in play. The team is striking out an average of 10 strikeouts per game.

Gave up too soon. Hoskins was lying in wait. 5-1 lead in the 9th ain’t so bad. I admit, I thought it might be hopeless. My prediction was they win the final two in the series. :suds:
