Brogden did a pretty good job closing-out the game unlike that dumbass Nelson. I just am so tired of Nelson just destroying what his teammates produce with such a cavalier fashion. He has done it many times this year without prejudice. The mother-effer should be shown the door like yesterday!
The Phillies have a pretty good chance of taking tomorrow's game and the same on Sunday. If they really want payback, the Phillies can take this 4-game series with a resounding sweep. And it would be fitting to come all the way back and take the overall series from these bastards!
I left the game in the 5th as the 8-0 lead seemed safe even with some douchebags in the pen. Lol. Besides, it got to be 55 degrees with wind and that sucked. We could sweep those bitches this weekend.
It appears that minor injuries and downtime are taking their toll on Harper, 29. For September, in 18 games he's just 10/67, .149/.247, with 9 BB. He's down to .288/.365. He'd been hitting about .360 except for .253 in April. Fortunately, the younger guys have stepped up to somewhat offset his dropoff. We won't go far in the postseason unless he recovers.
I agree jvett. Schwarber, Harper, Stott, and sometimes Realmuto and Segura have just been stuck in Dildoes ball. Harper, especially, has looked like crap since he returned from injury. If do get to the post-season, he is going to have to pick-up the pace or else, like you stated, he ain't going very far.
