Each week, the MLB posts a power ranking of the top 10 teams in the league on their social media. I have no idea who specifically comes up with the list, I just know that every week multiple fan bases are pissed off. This week, it was our turn. Some movement at the top […]
Right now, I feel exactly like Patrick Star in that scene from Spongebob where he returns home to his rock and doesn’t know any of the people in his house. When it comes to the Phillies of the past week, I don’t know who any of these people are. 5 straight wins?! 9th inning […]
Tuesday night’s win was one of the most non-Phillies, Phillies win my eyes have ever seen. That’s truly saying a lot given I said the exact same thing just three days ago about Sunday’s win. The sudden turn around of the Phils and the recent wave of doing the exact opposite of what they […]
When the Phillies signed Bryce Harper to a mega 13-year, $330 million contract in March of 2019, they expected him to step up in the clutch moments like he did on Sunday afternoon. When the Phillies drafted Bryson Stott, they will say that they eventually expected the same thing from Stott that they did from […]
An absolute bombshell was dropped in the Philly sports world while I was at the gym this morning (I workout sometimes). Joe Girardi is out as Phillies manager. Rob Thomson interim — Jim Salisbury (@JSalisburyNBCS) June 3, 2022 After writing a mere three days ago about the pros and cons of firing Joe […]
This Phillies team has been more disappointing than a rainy day at the beach. The 2022 Phillies have been downright embarrassing. Whether it be their dumbfounding defensive miscues, inopportune cold streaks at the plate, or the bullpen serving up their best batch of an Italian grandmother’s meatballs in big situations, this squad has been intolerably […]
Here is my pitch for a city-wide slogan regarding the Philadelphia sports teams: Philly sports, where the hope is plentiful, but the pain and suffering is endless. That’s the kind of Tuesday it was in the Delaware Valley. The day had every bit of predictable frustration you could possibly imagine. The Phillies played way […]
Last fall, Phillies owner, John Middleton sat in a crowded conference room and expressed his disgruntlement with back to back September collapses under then manager, Gabe Kapler. Middleton called the collapses ‘unacceptable’ and said it played a large part in the Phillies moving on to search for another manager. The Phils front office decided to […]
Crazy? You’re crazy for thinking they wouldn’t. I know in the cookie cutter world we live in today where everything has to be cut and dry, everyone assumes Wins directly correlate to good things and Losses directly correlates to bad things. But, that’s because you haven’t opened your third eye to the game of virtual […]
In the 8th inning of tonight’s Orioles vs Phillies game, we saw a bare handed jump pass from a pitcher, Tim Tebow Florida style to throw out a runner stealing home. It wouldn’t even register as one of the Top 5 whackiest moments of the game that was. The Phillies Bad News Bear’s themselves out […]
