There is truly nothing lamer than running to a team thread to "talk shit" after a game. Good one Killy Me Please , dump and dbl would be proud
That sucked, but Phillies were the better team. We're not going anywhere, but we're also more built for the regular season than post season. We need a "fuck you, give me the ball" SP. Strider may be that guy. Fried has stayed healthy for one year. Still think we need 2 more SPs
Phillies stars outplayed our stars by a mile. They were the better team. Time to figure out why and work to address it.
really interesting off-season coming up. the core is there but idk if you can just run it back after the last two years. but i also don’t know what’s available to improve on
Braves never changed their approach at the plate and the Phillies didn’t miss on the occasions that our pitchers missed. Simple as that. They lived off the homer and never shortened up to put the ball in play.
Meh, I don't think that's it. SP. Some human sacrifices when the playoffs start. Maybe beat a baby seal with our players' bats or something.
I don't know what's going to suddenly make this locked up core not shit their pants when the lights get bright.
The reality is that the Phillies are a better constructed team than us. We played incredible baseball for nearly the whole year but the holes in this team were present from the beginning. The wheels finally fell off against a team that seems to have more composure in big moments. The good news is that with our young talent locked up, there should be more chances for us in the future.
Need to upgrade SS, too. Lando is better served as a backup. He’s not a starting SS on a team hoping for more than an NLDS exit.
Pitchers had to be perfect (spoiler alert: they weren’t) because the lineup disappeared, pathetic showing by everyone but Riley
What's the answers to the bats going silent two straight years in the postseason? That's ultimately what lost this series. We lost games 3-0 and 3-1.
No idea. But not sure there's anything you can, or need, to change with our lineup. Hope Money can take a big leap next year. Pitching wins 'ships. Very rarely does offense
162 game season, and the two best teams through that long stretch, are eliminated by a five game Division Series. If these aren’t stretched out to seven games in the future, then you have to wonder if MLB just wants chaos.
