GDT 10/20/23 Philadelphia Phillies (Sánchez, C) @ Arizona Diamondbacks (Mantiply)

[el-pietro]

I think Saalfrank is the only left hander they have left.

[MichaelJackSchmidt]

I don't think this is a good move. It'll be mostly right-handed pictures for Arizona and he'll just have a right-handed Pache you hasn't played in, who knows when.

[HopeSpringsEternal]

I think we need to fly Liam in for Saturday’s game. Nick is in a funk right now.

[zambonir]

I think marsh is staying in, he just went down to dugout during break.

[zambonir]

definitely the spot where you could have used Rhys or even Weston Wilson. though too early, esp if they don't have any lefty relievers remainting.

haha yes!

[zambonir]

guess that trip to the dugout was useful

[Docs]

Pache would have hit it out

[zambonir]

Big opp for Rojas here really.

[kikutaro]

Foul bunt (92.5 mph sinker)
Foul (84. mph curveball)

[MichaelJackSchmidt]

I highly doubt he would have even made contact.

[el-pietro]

They likely want Saalfrank to face Marsh, Rojas, Kyle, Trea and Bryce. .... I was distracted by the events if that inning.

[bkeich]

They are going to empty their bullpen. Bit of an advantage for the Phils, I would really be tempted to use Walker here and give us a huge bullpen advantage tomorrow (and hopefully win today)

[Docs]

We just need someone to convince walker that he already pitched an inning tonight before sending him in

[kikutaro]

Geraldo Perdomo

Pitching Change: Matt Strahm replaces Jeff Hoffman.
Called strike (93.7 mph four-seam fastball)

[zambonir]

Nick!

[MichaelJackSchmidt]

That was a beautiful catch by Casty.

[kikutaro]

Ketel Marte

Called strike (89.2 mph cutter)
Foul (94.1 mph four-seam fastball)
Batter Timeout.
Ball (94.7 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (94.8 mph four-seam fastball)
Foul (94.3 mph sinker)
Ball (83.8 mph slider)
Foul (84.2 mph slider)
In play, out(s) (94.1 mph four-seam fastball)

Ketel Marte flies out to left fielder Brandon Marsh in foul territory.

[zambonir]

Strahm, Seranthony, Soto (and Lorenzen) didn't pitch yesterday, they'll all be good tomorrow in what should be a traditional start. Just can't expect three in a row from Kimbrel. Alvarado maybe. Kerkering probably doesn't pitch today.

I don't think the first inning thing is the issue for Walker at this point so much as he's not used to relief pitching period.
