The Phillies are cooked. They couldn’t lose today with Wheeler facing a bullpen game from the Mets. At least it will be quick.I don’t know, this just has the feeling of a Mets sweep.
Hopefully the big boy pants are t filled with a load!The disturbing thing is that all the things that can be said after today's game were the same exact things said after last year's elimination. I believe all the Mets' hits were singles. They extended at-bats by fouling off pitches. Hit the ball up the middle. Phiillies with big swings, chasing pitches, strikeouts and fly balls.
True, it's one game. But, the Phils wasted a 7-inning one-hit masterpiece by their ace and get beat in a bullpen game and had had their own bullpen exposed. Severino tomorrow. Oh boy. Big boy pants needed.

The interesting thing is where Middleton goes from here. The same basic formula hasn’t worked for several years now. They need a significant overhaul.
Little premature no?I don’t know, this just has the feeling of a Mets sweep.
Nope. This roster has run its course. They were magic in 2022 and then came unraveled last postseason. They were cooked by July this year and coasted into the playoffs on fumes. They have nothing left. Time for a big reset.Little premature no?
I think you should worry now, Philles bullpen sucks!Little premature no?
wow, what a timely hit, score 2 on Stott triple
Need to get this guy on 3rd in.
Just got home. Why is Strahm in and not the closer?are you kidding me?
Mets with a 2-run HR in the top of the 9th, to tie it up, 6-6
Just got home. Why is Strahm in and not the closer?
He pitched an inning priorJust got home. Why is Strahm in and not the closer?
Ok. Thanks. At this point I don’t trust anyone in the bullpen but Estez.Estez pitched the 8th inning. I believe he got the 1st 1-2-3 inning from the Fightins' bullpen in this year's playoffs.
Why not start the 9th with Estevez? He only threw 8 pitches.He pitched an inning prior
