7 back of the Braves and they were losing before a rain delay. Starting to track them down in earnest

It’s funny to even type this, but after the past two playoff performances, I genuinely don’t want the bye. I think keeping the rhythm and hosting a walk card series is better for this team.

Shoot, if they can’t win a wild card series at home, they weren’t gonna win it all anyway.

At this point I’m just happy the Phils are part of my summer. Looked a little bleak early

Painter getting smacked around. Singles, walks, doubles, Home Runs, a little bit of everything.

Time for Painter to be sent down.

From a Philadelphia Inquirer article, by Scott Lauber, after today's game, and Painter's demotion:

"Painter will search for his fastball in Lehigh Valley. His replacement isn’t apparent. The triple-A rotation consists of Tucker Davidson (6.50 ERA), Alan Rangel (3.74), Bryse Wilson (6.29), Brian Keller (4.35), and Chuck King (4.02). Rangel, the best of the bunch, started Wednesday night for the IronPigs and could slide into Painter’s spot."

Almost have to give Rangel a shot cannot be any worse than Painter or Walker.

The Painter saga shows that (almost) no prospect is untouchable. If you can trade potential for proven production, you’ve got to always seriously consider it

He thought he was making a point. The Phillies are flawed, but the Braves are leaking serious oil.

I’m starting to embrace this.

I’m starting to embrace this.

Yeah, I’m late to this too. The Dominic Brown story awhile back should have convinced me earlier - he was a can’t miss super stud and we had a chance to land some studs for him but held onto him

Lost the game started on Tue that ended on Wed and lost the Wed night game as well. 6.5 back of Atlanta.

How long will Tanner Banks be allowed to throw BP in real games before he’s sent packing? SMH.
