Now up to 13-5 with a Jay Bruce 3-run HR in the 8th.
Enough margin?
I was just talking about point 1 with my old man. That’s the best 1-2 combo they’ve had since Halladay and Lee left. If they get replacement level from Arrieta, they’re much improved from last year.13-6 final and the Phillies go to .500 at 9-9
Some real positives:
- Nola and Wheeler are high quality starters
- Realmuto may be the best catcher in baseball, excellent defensively and hitting with power
- Bryce Harper is playing like a superstar -- hitting, hitting with power, solid defensively, stealing bases, and all around hustling
- Getting some offense from a number of players -- Gregorious, Bruce, Gosselin, rookie Bohm off to a good start
Winless in Buffalo. Sounds like a bad TV show.That doubleheader was as bad as it gets. Only the Phils could blow a 7 run lead in a 7 inning game. Didi's error was inexcusable.

Dollar for dollar, the Phillies are the worst team in baseball.

Over the last 2 days, the Phillies acquired 3 new pitchers to bolster the bullpen.
Phillies manager Joe Girardi got a few more reliable options in his bullpen on Saturday. Right-handers Brandon Workman, Heath Hembree and David Hale were added to the Phillies’ 28-man roster before Saturday night’s game against the Braves at Truist Park in Atlanta. Philadelphia acquired Workman and Hembree on Friday night
Tonight, they wasted a 470-ft HR by Bryce Harper and a strong start by Zach Wheeler -- 7 innings, 5 hits, 2 runs, 8 strike-outs, left with a 4-2 lead.
Bullpen ERA now 8.33 after giving up 3 runs in the 8th and 1 in the 9th in a 6-5 loss.

Neris has totally lost it, the guy has always been a head case. Anyone see JT stare him down after a cross-up on a pitch? He was pissed.
I know they need pitching, but JT has to be signed. Letting him go will set this team back big time.
just sign him already !!!
Maybe he doesn't really want to sign with the Phillies, given the trainwreck this short season has been.
Ha...a .121 hitter with 2 outs and an 0-2 count and he smashes a HR!Kingery with a walk off 3-run HR, Phils win 7-4! Four straight wins!
So Sixto Sanchez is mowing down the Rays thru 4. He's topped 100 mph and has 8 Ks. How much money is Realmuto's offer going up with every Sanchez pitch?
As an aside, D'Arnaud was catching during that 0-2 walk off last night.D'Arnaud became a starter but was hampered by injuries as well. Some prospects live up to projections and some don't.
Frustrating game going to the 11th. Hoskins is so inconsistent. Why does Girardi insist on batting him second?
Still have some hope for Hoskins, 2 years with Kapler destroyed Hoskins. Upper cut, launch angle, take the first pitch, strike outs don't matter. Closely watch Hoskins and his swing has changed, more level, hitting on top of the ball, fewer homers, more line drives. Took the new coaching staff to do this. Also, will swing at the first pitch.He had a little league error at first as well that cost a run Although the error was charged to DiDi. He’s worthless.
Must have been fun, I get to watch Phillies on MLB extra innings, a subscription service. In past years I got opposition announcers 1/2 the time. This year changed, seems each team has its own channel; i have been getting Phils announcers for each game.Ha...a .121 hitter with 2 outs and an 0-2 count and he smashes a HR!
This team can be so frustrating to watch, but they are making progress, I think.
Had the pleasure of watching that walk-off HR on the Braves network.
Phils 4-1 over Braves today
Neris seems to be getting comfortable in the setup role.Good to see Eflin and Rhys step up today. Workman is still shaky, but got the job done.
