    Damn, Urquidy proving once again why he's a way superior playoff pitcher than McCullers...

    It’s not a must win until it’s actually a must win. Tomorrow would be ****ing helpful though.

    This has all the makings of the 2018 ALCS, and JV potentially starting in game 5 in an elimination game.

    Jose Urquidy literally has been the Astros best pitcher ever in World Series' history

    Jose Urquidy has a record of 3-0 with an ERA of 1.54 and 11 strikeouts in 4 appearances in the World Series in his career.

    Good, I hope they are jinxing it.

    Astros win tomorrow and the series changes just like that. They secure a trip back to Houston and put game 5 as a must win for the Phillies.

    it would be one thing to lose to a superior team and go down fighting and with your gun empty. But we didn’t. Dusty is a dingbat of a manager and our players are just non-chalant out there. That is what sucks is the fans care more then the d*** team. You would think every single one of them lost their dog today or something. If we make it to game 7 and Lance starts and gets rocked yea there would be no excuse to not let Dusty and Click go. After seeing this performance tonight I would rather roll with Urquidy. What’s there to lose. You go down with your best guys. Right now JV and LMJ are not that. They could be but they aren’t.

    Urquidy was shaky early(understandable having not pitched all postseason), but he's looked pretty solid. Granted, the Phillies hitters know this game is over. If this goes 7, Dusty better not default to Lance.

    Dusty is costing us the World Series. We have the best bullpen by a mile and he refuses to use it.
    It already cost us game 1. And it is about to cost us game 3.

    and mcCullers out there throwing change up after change up. I’m sorry this is on Dusty 100%. He hasn’t won a World Series for a reason.

    In 2019 we had the best team, up and down the roster. That one is a choke

    Last year and this year, I don't think we are decidedly better than the other team.
    The World series is so much different than the regular season. It should be seven games in seven days for it to be similar to the regular season. I imagine if the regular season was 3 games and two off days then three more games and two more off days....the Phillies would have a .700 winning percentage never needing to use their 4th and 5th starters or middle relievers. Just use three starters and 4 relievers all year like the world series calls for. It's just a completely different game really.
