They’re back! About time we get our big bats back. This series upcoming against LA is huge. Duh. Arguably the two best teams in baseball. Harper vs Ohtani is the marquee matchup. The last series against Atlanta was, although deflating and disappointing, not a huge deal. We’re still 7 1/2 games up, and we were…

Ok…let’s not panic. Everything will be ok. Trea is back today too. We lost one series to a good team. Yes we got outscored 14-5 in the last two games but it will be ok. Bohm is heating back up, which we desperately need. In June, he’s batting .280 with 4 two bags and 10…

It’s back! After an offseason matching the Phillies (eerily quiet), we are back for a full year! After a crushing end to the season (what’s new), hope springs eternal down in Clearwooder. Mitts are popping, bats are cracking, and Weston Wilson is hitting jacks. I don’t care if the Yanks or Jays are playing their…

Red October is back. I cannot wait for tomorrow at 8:00 when we absolutely go bananas against Jesus Luzardo. I keep thinking, the Marlins? Them? Playoff team? I just don’t see it. 84-78, third in the NL East. Like cmon man. Luzardo is 10-9 with a 3.63 ERA. He’s pitched fairly well against the Phillies…

Can I get a LOLMETS? Wow what another great series! Magic number down to one, home field down to two, what a time to be a Phils fan! It’s my opinion that we’ve finally found our three and four starters. Ranger and Chris Sanchez, the jobs are yours. I don’t care it’s against the Mets,…

I’m sure the six people reading this are ready to riot after I didn’t post after the Braves series. First off, I had school/a cold. Second, I was too dejected after what happened. Anyway, coming off an okay series against the Cards, I’m back. Initial thoughts: wow the bullpen is cooked. And Aaron Nola. I’ll…

That’s what’s in! Wasn’t the best baseball I’ve seen but whatever gets the job done. I still find it hilarious that Taijuan always seems to get insane run support whenever he starts. Monday was interesting to put it lightly. WHen we went up 8-1 I was like ‘Oh wow we really needed a laugher. Glad…

Well here we are! The annual September rollercoaster! This past series was a microcosm of this whole month I feel like; blown leads, errors, a bunch of home runs/strikeouts, and (hopefully not) poor Aaron Nola pitching. Friday’s game was just an absolute heartbreaker. They fall behind early (of course), Trea rescues them, and ALVARADO not…

That’s a sweep ladies and gentlemen! I’m so proud of Aaron Nola first off. That game yesterday could easily be a 5 innings, 8 hits, 6 runs statline. But no! 7 innings! ONE hit! NO runs! Who is this guy? If we get that version of Nola in the playoffs, look out. The rotation was,…

Again, to the seven people reading this blog, I had a 7:30PM baseball game in reading so yeah couldn’t do a post. But the Nationals series was disappointing. The Giants series however, was not! The first game was good until Dylan Covey entered the game (of course). I don’t care if it’s a 40 run…
