4 wins in a row and tied with the Yankees for 3rd best record in all of baseball. Unfortunately, the Braves have the best record and Phils remain 1.5 games behind them. The starting pitching has been so good but now Tajuan Walker is back and Turnbull will go to the bullpen despite his 1.33 ERA as a starter. I'm so glad this team finally has had a good April.
Ok, 10 losses in a row against the lowly Angels?? Why can't we beat this team no matter how bad they are. I'm not sure what is wrong with Dominguez, but what worries more is that Thomson keeps trusting him in big leverage situations despite his extreme control issues. He could have went with a well rested Strahm instead. Very frustrating especially since we could have gained a game on the Braves.
Hey!! We helped you!! Nah, don't worry. The Angels are already so far back we don't care about them anymore XD
Awesome come-from-behind win in the 9th yesterday from the most unlikely of sources, Casty & Rohas. I felt like it was a dream. Only a half game behind Atlanta though they have 3 games in hand.
Phils are rolling and passed the Braves. Best record in baseball. So of course Trea Turner & Alec Bohm get hurt. Ugh.
Phils continue to keep winning. 7 in a row and 11 straight at home. Yesterday, Jose Berrios came into the game with the best ERA in the majors at 1.44. Phils touched him for 8 runs including a Harper grand slam.
Since this is a Phillies thread, I thought I'd might as well post this review of Keith O'Brien's new bio on Pete Rose. Solid read. Book Review: Charlie Hustle: The Rise and Fall of Pete Rose, and the Last Glory Days of Baseball by Keith O’Brien - Sports Chump
