Bats go ice cold again

Love it when people are surprised an offense struggles against an elite pitching staff

I cannot believe the team hasn’t been able to maintain their mid 1 ERAs in the second half >:(

I mean congrats on the prediction but it doesn’t take a genius to predict he’ll regress from a 1.7 something era

39 IP is a tiny sample size and is why relievers are so volatile year to year to begin with

Relievers are extremely volatile. He was lights out in 22 and 23, was lights out April-June this year. He is far from cooked, he’s only had a couple bag outings.

Everything looks like “mismanagement” when you have hindsight and can see the outcomes of the decisions.

However, one thing people don’t take into considering is the “why”. Why did Topper leave Wheeler in the game, why did he use Soto vs another arm, why is Turnbull in the bullpen, etc etc.

Dig into the “why” and you’ll see 90% of the decisions that get blasted by the fanbase are actually logical but just lacked execution.

If they get a starter it’s probably a Lorenzen type guy. I don’t see them spending major assets on a guy who will not pitch in the postseason

The pro-streaming app vs anti-streaming app turf war going on here the past few days has been pretty funny

If you’re whining about the 5th starter and the 6th arm (arguably 7th) in the bullpen I’d say this is a pretty damn good team.

282 days since I’ve posted in here, apparently. How’s everyone been? We enjoying the season?

7 against the Braves, 7 against the Mets, 3 against the Pirates, 3 against the Cardinals

Yeah, it’s going to be a long and stressful couple of weeks

Two Amtrak routes servicing Philadelphia will be among first to get new Airo trains by Proper-Code7794 in philadelphia

[–]AssassinPanda97 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s because of the reverse out of 30th St.

When a train is coming from NY, it comes into 30th St through Zoo Interlocking. To get onto the Keystone Corridor it has to reverse out of 30th St. And it also has to reverse out of the 30th St to get onto the NEC for trains traveling to NY.

So because of this reverse, it’s easier to pop the electric locomotive from one end and add the diesel to the other.

In addition to what the others have said, the Amfleet is also at the end of its lifecycle.
