    This current phillies team should worry you actually. playing great baseball since the start of the postseason. elite aces on the mound and stars in the lineup to go with them w/ a good supporting cast

    Playing great baseball over 8 games?

    They are a horrible defensive team. Their bats are incredibly inconsistent. Nola & Wheeler are good, but not better than our pitchers.

    yup that's really all that matters in baseball. the hottest team when the postseason starts is the one that pretty much makes it to the end.

    did anyone say they're better? nah. but they're both damn good and are aces that can carry their team to a W. they very much have the foundation to make a legit run in the WS. A lot of folks forget Philly came into this season with extremely high expectations. They had their rough start and fired their coach. Got their season back on track and were seeing why this team had high expectations to begin with

    We still owe the Phillies for 1980 I think more so than we owe the padres for 1998.

    I was too young, but I just watched Facing Nolan on Netflix and they showed how that game turned around in a hurry. Ouch Nolan, 3 run lead in the 8th.

    I feel like Profar could have caught that with a better jump. Defense matters, kids!
