Pirates VS Phillies Series.

[Cedrique]

so much for the vonted Redskins defense

Jorge is in! Gets his first hit!

 

[northeastphillyguy]

Yea!

 

[jvett77]

Yes. Nick Williams had 2 walks in the last 66 games he played in at AAA. He has less patience than Nicky Scarfo

That works out to be 5 walks a season. Very shabby. Maybe his rbi would make up for it. In 5 years he has walked only 107 times. This is his worst full year at .258. 52/128 hits are exbase hits so he'll get a shot.

Phillies 64th win. Most since 2014's 73. With 18 to go, can we win 9 more just for the hell of it?

Yeah, maybe eventually. But for now he is much like the Moo Goo Gai Pan at China King--he needs a little more seasoning

Quinn is the real deal. I can see, Dubel, Roman and The German patrolling the Phils outfield for the next 10 years. Hey Nick Williams--Have fun working at the car wash with Tyson Gillies.

What, is Trout moving to first base?

 

[Cedrique]

What, is Trout moving to first base?

Once the big three are firmly entrenched in the outfield I see Trout as more of a 1b/ph type, platooning some with Tommy Joseph and possibly DHing in interleague games

Retro may object to the exposed cheerleaders. By the way retro, where have you been?

Quiet! Actually, I came across more than a few Avs in these forums with typical football cheerleaders. This is part of major and collegiate sports and these outfits are not obscene. I never heard of any fans in a stadium objecting to this entertainment. This attire is sold by legitimate advertizers who support sports telecasts. It's all part of the multi-billion dollar sports industry.

Another Dom Brown in the making. He has head problems!

Plus, the Phillies org can give players head problems. They get lifer utility players who block guys like Williams, who hit .280 thru August 11. All guys can slump for a few weeks so now he's down to .258. He may only walk 20 times a season but his 5-year average OBP is .331.

I wonder at this point, how many openings remain on the roster.

I'll have to try that one next time I'm hungry (for Librium- not actual Chinese food of course)

 

[jvett77]

Geez, Quinn strikes out. The kid is trash.

 

[Cedrique]

Is this the game where the XFIP catches up with Asher?

 

[Omar 382]

Quite possibly

 

[Omar 382]

xFIP appears to bending Double A over right now

 

[Cedrique]

Asher is on fire! He doesn't care about XFIP, he is a gamer!

 

[jvett77]

I'm excited, really.

 

[jvett77]

Wow! Quinn got to first at light speed on the slow roller.
