[Hitman Hart]

lmao that vaunted phillies defense strikes again

I dont know whether to root for or against the Rockies?? I want them to win the West but I also want homefield in NLDS.

The Rockies might beat us, but if we draw them instead of the Dodgers, I'll gladly take that homefield or not. We have a shot against the Rockies. We have no shot against the Dodgers.

Yeah thats a good point. Plus I like our offense at Coors field if we do have to go there.

So in short, pull for the Rockies, or at least pull for the Dodgers to lose.

Freddie just missed a homer.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Freddie has missed 2 homers by just a few feet. Work on that launch angle, son.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Another leadoff double getting pissed away.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Strong start from Folty. He has plenty more in the tank, but there's no reason to risk anything. He got over 200 strikeouts. He qualified for the win. Job well done.

I won't complain if he goes farther, but I doubt it happens.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Kelsey just said Snit said...

Game 1:Folty
Game 2:Sanchez
Game 3: Gausman
Game 4:Undecided....JULIO HAS EARNED THIS SPOT SNIT!!

Biddle had 2 months there was he was unreal and unhittable but since then he has been very average.

Biddle had 2 months there was he was unreal and unhittable but since then he has been very average.

He's pitching himself out of a postseason roster spot with his September.

Winkler hasn't done himself any favors lately either.

I'm going with an 8 man pen of(in order from closer to roster fillers):

Viz
Minter
Sobotka
Brach
Venters
Winkler
Touki
Biddle(just because I don't want Sam Freeman or Luke Jackson, though I have a feeling one of them will be there)

Camargo with the bat and the glove is the man in this game.

I trust Biddle more than Winkler. Winkler was great the first 2 or 3 months but has sucked ever since. I also think Carle has a shot, and he also was really good at the beginning of year but ended up sucking.

I feel good about Viz,Sobotka,Venters,and Brach.....not so much anyone else.

 

[Chewbaccer]

With splits that lopsided, it might be worth considering making Ozzie a right handed hitter instead of a switch hitter.

Chipper's stats were damn near identical from both sides.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Nice defense Bour.

LOL

 

[Mistaken4193]

I 100% leave Acuna in the leadoff spot next year.

 

[Chewbaccer]

If the Phillies lose tonight they will clinch a losing record.

It'll never happen, but if we sweep the Phillies, and the Mets sweep, the Mets and Phillies will be tied for third place.

Mets have actually been really good since the ASB.
