2008 Philadelphia Phillies Season/Playoff Thread (Die Mets Die)

[ice grillin you]

three wins against atlanta
three wins combined against the three good teams theyve played in this stretch


they need to sweep the angels to 'easily' reach the nine wins wing boldly predicted

[Wingspan]

i bet 10 the phils would be .500

[MDS]

well that sucked. everyone take a break and come back friday.

[ice grillin you]

is this team for real?

NO

[rjs246]

I love it. They lose two games to one of the best teams in the league and suddenly it's fire and brimstone. Settle down, sisters.

[SunMo]

actually, they've lost 3 series in a row and with the exception of 2 games the offense has been putrid


casual following is not your thing

[ice grillin you]

its not like the seasons over they can of course still make the playoffs...but this 15 game stretch was a chance to show they could take it to the big boys and i think it was an important test...so far its a test they have failed...losing every series in this stretch aginst quality opponents

unless they make some serious moves at the deadline they have no chance of making the world series much less winning it...nothing less nothing more

Hit.

[SunMo]

easily 9

[QB Eagles]

3 @ atlanta
3 @ florida - 2nd place
3 @ stl -  2nd place
3 vs bos - 1st place
3 vs laa - 1st place

winning seven of those would be good cause for me to post a bunch of panicky shtein about how the team isn't a real contender

[ice grillin you]

contender for what?...to win a playoff game this year....that would be a huge step forward

sorry but i could care less about making the playoffs they already did that....either they are a world series title contender or who the hell cares...and right now they are NOT a world seriesa title contender

and lol @ anyone saying anything negative about them being panicky

was i being unrealistic when i asked if this team was for real two weeks ago?

[Rome]

The Phillies might not win another game this season.
