[Official] Phillies @ Astros

Not the first time we have had trouble with Nola. Thankfully it wasn’t in the World Series.

 

We suck at home again!

 

The FAN - What have you done for me LATELY?

The SAGE - This too shall pass.

 

They say hitting a baseball is simple.

See the ball - Hit the ball.

I fail both halves.

 

Another game with Maldy catching, another loss. The sample size is getting larger. All 12 losses have been with him catching. We are undefeated when he doesn't catch…

 

I still think Dusty is trolling us

 

We're down 4 starters and are fine playing without a catcher that hits.

The fact we've managed to win games with this lineup recently is surprising.

 

To be fair to Dusty, I don’t think he has anything to do with pitching decisions. He’s said as much.

 

Agree with this. The Astro formula is clear, ignore the regular season, keep players healthy, experiment with lineups for optimal playoff run. With the extra playoff spot, this approach makes even more sense.

 

I think Dusty is good in regards to keeping positions players well rested. I don't think he experiments much.

 

have abreu or Tucker had an off day yet?

 

Abreu, Bregman, Pena and Tucker have played in all 26 games.

 

JFC more Maldonado

 

Finally!!!!

The lineup I've been begging for.

Jesus Dusty is slow. That was painful.

 

You'reDone is back!

 

Well if the playoffs started today we wouldn't be in it.

So there is that.

 

Every Thursday not counting opening day.

 

Was anyone slightly pissed that Yordan didn’t make MLB’s Top 10 Hitters power rankings? He literally won us 3 games in a row at the Braves. Not good enough apparently.
