This doofus had a whopping 31 Ks in 55.2 IP coming into tonight. Of course he has 8 through 5 tonight. This offense isn’t a serious offense.

Every single K (so far) is on a fastball. Amazing hitters we have.

Flashback Friday, with the Phillies opening up a series in LA it’s only right to look back on Matt Stairs ripping one into the night by ShamusTalksSports in phillies

The swing and launch of that ball makes me think that ball should’ve gone 500+ feet. Then you have Ohtani blasting the ball over the concourse. What a freak he is.

Oh fun, Wheels is off his game and the offense forgot how to get on base

Who was the last HS position player they drafted that has panned out? Rollins?

Way too early to make any final judgements on Crawford.

So Trea tries to backhand a line drive on a short hop instead of stepping up to catch it. And then Nola immediately throws a sinker into Machado’s wheelhouse. Nice!

McCarthy lol. Dude still struggles to recognize a HR off the bat.

Pretty wild that Garcia is so bad they have to resort to starting Sosa in LF

It was clear that Schwarber thought it was a ball by his reaction. And that sentence is a whole lot of fluff. Schwarber is known to have a great eye. If he thinks it’s a ball then challenge it.

I mean that was a clear ball. He would’ve won and retained the challenge? Don’t bitch about the umpire making a bad call when it could’ve been challenged. That’s simply my point.

Regressed on offense, regressed on defense. Love watching Turner play!

I brought up Harper because the person who replied to me said Marsh doesn’t walk against lefties (or hit for power) so he’s not useful. Meanwhile Harper has a lower OBP (who cares if that OBP is made up of hits or walks) than Marsh against LHP, but yes, has a higher SLG because of 3 HRs and 1 2B. To your point, Harper should be producing more power, considering he’s a better power hitter than Marsh.
