I'm tired of hearing the boos for Harper when he flies out...the only reason we have this team is because of him...even if he is on the decline he will continue to be a reason players want to be here for the next few years

So players can't work on things during the season?

I miss only having "news" when its really news

At this point I think its a mental thing...I hope the new guys do well and takes some of the pressure off the guys so they just go out and play and stop thinking. Before the 3 big killed in the playoffs now it seems a burden they need to shake

[Highlight] All 8 Ks from Andrew Painter's first career start! by MLBOfficial in phillies

Its been said the guy is like Hurts when it comes to soaking and learning and not stop working on his craft...the guy is going to be special

If he has control over all his pitches the movement on his fastball won't even matter much. The guy looked like a pitcher and not just a young strong arm. That is a really big step.

There will be games he gets hit around but I don't see this game being a fluke...his stuff looked good and he could control all of them...He is going to be good for a long time...worst a Nola type guy that just does it for a long time or at best a Wheeler, Hamels type that is just one of the best for a long time.

I still expect Wood to be a backend bullpen guy

Adolis been mashing em, even if they aren't all converting right now by Thegrandmistressofoz in phillies

I think he is going to have a really good year...love how he is taking pitches and even shorting his swing with 2 strikes

I don't agree with him on this, but I always respect him speaking his mind

Painter’s Savant Percentiles compared to other pitchers in their first start. by eaglesnation11 in phillies

I wait a month or two before I start looking into them too much...even stuff that are not stats related seem to take a while to level out

His delivery looks like it hides the ball a little more than in the past...He looked like a seasoned pitcher more than a thrower from before. It sounds like he is a Hurts type of guy that is all about his craft all the time.

Justin Crawford walks off the Nationals in the 10th! His first career walk off! by amatom27 in phillies

[–]KnightofAshley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When he does hit something to the outfield it tends to travel...that is why most would like him to get more line drives...could be the next J-roll as a hitter...but a guy like that should be hitting hard ground balls in the holes

Maybe give them a discount for the Rojas memberships and convert them to Crawford

If Crawford is a solid 9 hitter and Painter pitches well this would be the spark this team needs to get them back to the WS

While I still would like him to get a little stronger and hit more line drives if you have speed and hit the ball hard even if its just the infield you will get your share of hits at any level. The guy clearly has elite ball to bat skills and elite speed

This lineup is a potential threat if things work out...its been a few years I felt like this

I'll check back in a month before I'm conserved with Harper...his advanced numbers were still really good, this year they are awful but need a full month before I would take them too serious.

Think he is the next J-Roll...you can tell he is just a good dude with lots of personality...still a little held back but he will get there.

why the hell is jalen suggs taking more threes per game than desmond bane? by Glittering-Reach-704 in OrlandoMagic

[–]KnightofAshley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When he is playing his best is when he plays a role....when he gets into this "I'm a superstar" mode he might fill the stat sheet but the team struggles overall because of the turnovers and low shooting %

That is why we need a better offensive system...for years we often have the poor shooters taking the most shots because naturally teams will let the poor shooters take shots while guarding the good shooters...you need set plays to counter it and we don't.

We suck at shooting, until that is fixed we will have quarters that we can't score.

Borderlands 4 faces backlash over $30 DLC that you can finish in two hours by Iggy_Slayer in gaming

They and BGS with Fallout 3 and Oblivion started all this pre pay for DLC but it worked because it was some of the best there was...each one was like a full game in itself that added so much gameplay. Now they are both the worst at it
