So much for “we want to win this year noone can stop us”. This is how you hit, you deserve to be knocked out.
Turned it off. Bad enough watching them waste a Wherler start but those announcers made my ears bleed
There’s nothing that Long can do with these guys. They’re going to hit the way that they feel like it. The only solution is to move out some of them. The problem is no one will want those contracts.Turner, Castellanos and Marsh are strikeouts waiting to happen whenever they walk up to the plate. When Harper, Stott and JT start swinging at stuff out of the zone, the Phillies are cooked.
Middleton deserves a refund
