Frustrating to see them swept by the Rangers in this series and for the season. That's not exactly a great team in the other dugout, but of course the Phillies have shown they can have many of those same tendencies, as well. The bad defense, while expected, is so frustrating to watch.Phils got out pitched, out hit, and out defensed in today's game against the Rangers, and fall 4-2.
It’s a good feeling when you wake up to a win after going to bed trailing.Solid win. Good starting pitching. A realmuto sighting. Another schwarber homer

I saw it happen on Comcast. If he didn’t get hit on the thumb, it may have hit him in the face. Pitcher came up and in on him. Legit baseball. After he got over his frustration at what was clearly a bad injury, he exonerated the pitcher by yelling an apology for getting upset initially.If you’re a Phillies fan, it’s bad feeling when you wake up to the news that Harper has a broken thumb.
Snell was visibly upset right after it happened from video I saw of him when he was off the mound. Not deliberate, and some idiots say Harper turned onto it!! He was trying to avoid another head beaming. 97 mph fastball up and in!I saw it happen on Comcast. If he didn’t get hit on the thumb, it may have hit him in the face. Pitcher came up and in on him.

Yup. Figure its two months just like for Jean Segura. Late August maybe for both to be back on the team.If you’re a Phillies fan, it’s bad feeling when you wake up to the news that Harper has a broken thumb.
Losing Harper for 2 mos is an insurmountable blow for this club. Their playoff chances are effectively zero at this point. They'll fight like hell, but struggle to maintain .500 while the other wild card contenders stretch well above .500.Sadly, this stretch without Harper is going to feature a lot of frustrating nights like last night. Think I've seen enough of Moniak. Another 0-for night for Castellanos. Yuck.
How can it be that Thomson knows how to manage the bullpen better than Girardi did? The change was needed, team had become stagnant. I’m liking Stott’s defense and it appears Realmuto, Hoskins, and, hopefully Castellanos, are starting to click at the plate better. Phillies may actually be in the division lead without some of those horrific bullpen performances. If the Mets continue their winning ways, well then it may be their year. Getting deGrom and Scherzer back is gonna help them.How we feeling all? Certainly has been a better run of late than any of us could have expected after Harper went down.
It sure is. That pitching staff is really good. And as for the Phillies and bullpen management, I just think Girardi had some really dumb rules that he was tied to and rigid on and that did no one any good.How can it be that Thomson knows how to manage the bullpen better than Girardi did?

Great start to tonight's game. I am still amazed how bad the Nats are just a few years removed from a World Series.
