I hope that the Phils get this craptastic offensive game out of their system before the regular season. Or maybe by tomorrow when the son and I are headed north to Clearwater to see the game.

And apparently Hoskins is nursing some shoulder injury. They're playing it down (the whole "no structural damage" thing), but it's something to keep an eye on. He's out until at least the weekend.

His last two outings were really good. If he can become a #2... [/wishful thinking]

Nice McBride clip Geo. 39 years ago, damn. 1980-81 every Philadelphia team made it to their respective league championship, bums only ones to prevail as world champs.

hes been good all spring but today was next level filth that ive never seen from him

They need him. Stating the obvious but since VV isn't developing he's got to be the third guy.

Harper's gone yard twice

Don Ho · March 21, 2019, 05:04:39 PM

Harper's second homer was beautiful.

Damn, VV really sucks. "Vince, bullpen on line 1".

your no 3 is pivetta...maybe

most likely its someone currently playing for another team. what the phillies have in house is a lot of bottom of the rotation starters/organization depth. the best thing about their rotation is they have 3/4 guys in AAA who are not horrendous, which is kind of something.

Hell of a lot of fun at Spectrum Field today. Both Harper homers were blasts. Son got an autograph from Jimmy Rollins. Bought him a #3 jersey. May have to sell blood to pay the bills later.

Vinny V is maddening to watch. He can be dominant to two strikes, then starts nibbling. He might start the year in the rotation, but he won't end it there.

There are few places I'd wait in line to eat. This is one of them.
