[bkeich]

I feel bad for Velasquez. I think he probably would be a good reliever, probably even a late game guy, but they team keeps flipping him back to starter because they don’t have any depth in the rotation and skipped making any moves to improve the rotation almost 100 games into the season.

It really isn’t his fault, he has proven he is not well suited for going through a lineup 3 times, he just doesn’t have a wide enough repertoire of pitches.

It’s hard to believe that a team can be ahead 6-5 and probably have a 20% chance to win. Hope I am wrong but this has disaster written all over it

[LoneStarPhan]

Very disappointing to see the Phillies offense go cold after scoring six in the first two innings. Buehler still in there pitching for the Dodgers and now has put up four scoreless innings. Meanwhile, VV fails to go 5 innings and has reduced a 5 run lead to one.

I don't know what the problem is with this team but something is just not right. Unless we see a miraculous turn around, they have to rethink things and some changes have to be made. Easier said than done, though.

[kikutaro]

Barnes, A

Phillies left fielder Jay Bruce left the game due to an injured side.
Pitching Change: Juan Nicasio replaces Jose Alvarez, batting 9th.
Called strike (85.8 mph slider)
Called strike (93.4 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (87.9 mph slider)
Called strike (86.3 mph slider)

Austin Barnes called out on strikes.

[kikutaro]

Freese

Offensive Substitution: Pinch-hitter David Freese replaces Walker Buehler.
Foul (92.1 mph two-seam fastball)
Swinging strike (87.4 mph slider)
Ball (87.3 mph slider)
Swinging strike (94.3 mph four-seam fastball)

David Freese strikes out swinging.

[LoneStarPhan]

This is what drives me crazy with managers today. THIS IS NOT THE WORLD SERIES. Nicasio just pitched to two hitters and struck both out. Now he is out. No wonder the pitching is in shambles.

[Patchmk88]

I just said the same thing to my family while we were watching. Analytics need to be a tool not the decision maker.
