SirAnthony Dominguez needs to be released or traded. He should never pitch another inning for the Phillies. He's horrible!!!!

I see Lehigh Valley in his immediate future. He needs some work to regain what looked like a promising career.

Most wins in baseball on May 1. Feels nice to say. April has never been their month. High Hopes.

He has no options. There is virtually no chance he is sent there because he'd have to agree to be sent there.

Oh I didn’t know that. I thought I read somewhere that he had one left. Yeah, no chance then.

He's been in the league too long:

He is absolutely critical to this team going deep in the post season. Truth be told, only Hoffman has been what they want at the back end. I’m not including Matt who has been really good. But Soto, Dominguez, Alvarado have been dicey, Kerkering “incomplete“ grade to date.

Agreed. I also just detest the different role different closer stuff every game and refuse to believe that it doesn’t cause some of the problems.

I think we both know that it’s lineup dependent. If there are quality left handed hitters,it will be Alvarado to close. Opposite with Hoffman. If the 8th inning features the middle of the lineup, you will get who is throwing best so that the 9th inning and save go to someone else. Best case scenario is that you have at least two of the three arms from either direction going well so that you have the guys available against any matchups that arise.

So, why isn’t tonight’s game against SF on cable tv? It looks like the only option to watch is via Apple TV.

Yeah, I don’t have an Apple TV subscription.

The link I provided is titled "How to watch baseball on Apple TV+." But it wasn't my intention to provide anyone with a path to watch the game. If you open the link I provided, the opening paragraph answers your question as to why the game isn't on cable TV. Hence, the reason I posted it.

The “why” was a rhetorical question, another way of saying it was a decision that I don’t agree with…
