One thing that is going to annoy me is how expensive Renteria’s Bowman first auto cards are going to be

Mitch_Rupert@mitchrupert.bsky.social · yesterday

Francisco Renteria hooks 97 mph into the corner for a three-run double to give the DSL Phillies a 4-1 lead. Renteria has 43 RBIs in 44 games this season. It’s also his eighth double of the year.

Sent this over on the other site, so here goes. I’m probably the contrarian on all of this, but I believe the Phillies are fine with what they did at the deadline. (1/)

So far today, I’m at: Arraez/Kilian deal: B- Raley deal: B

In Trading Ramon Marquez for Luis Arraez Prior Process Failures Increase Cost to Stay Afloat

For those that wish the Phillies to enter a rebuild, let me remind you, rebuilds are not as fun as you think they are.

Anyway, trade Orion. He’s cooked here without a third pitch when the other two aren’t that good

Again I ask: where is the offense in games? One hit after the Realmuto home run. One!

But yeah, Donnie, keep telling us how Bryce shouldn’t say that this team needs help.

We can place a lot of the blame on Mattingly for his pitching moves….bur where is the offense to pile on runs?

They won’t sell, nor should they. They’re still in a WC spot and should continue to push for that. After the season? Depending on how it all finishes, that’s a whole other story

Alex Cora, every time Don Mattingly has to make a managerial decision:

Donald Duck Fanning Money

Conversely, Joe Girardi needs to simply shut up for longer than 4 seconds.

Joey Votto might already be the best analyst of any MLB broadcast

Can José Alvarado be salvaged? From @witteethan.bsky.social www.thegoodphight.com/phillies-ana...

Just a random thought for the day: Would you trade Trea Turner straight up for Francisco Lindor?

Jhoan Duran is this team’s MVP and I don’t think it’s close

Gotta say, like the fire from Cotham and Dickerson

Since 6/11, the day after Garcia got hurt, here are the outfielders for the Phillies before tonight

Want to feel old? Jim Thome’s son is probably going to be drafted this weekend.

Watching this making of stranger things doc and it’s pretty funny that my assumption was right, the Duffer brothers had no clue how to end the show

Underrated baseball thing: a fastball thrown past a hitter so hard, it makes a pop of dust in the catcher’s mitt

The last week of June in the Phillies system with a check in on Aroon Escobar walking and hitting home runs, and Cade Obermueller getting himself out of trouble.

The Phillies’ biggest need always has been the bullpen. Duran is wonderful, of course, but if you believe they have reliable arms to get you from 5/6th innings to the 9th? Friend, I have some news…

The Nationals bullpen needs an exorcism

You ever notice that Sanchez rarely throws over to first to hold a runner?

There is no actual reason for Turner to be anywhere above fifth in the lineup right now. No reason Mattingly shouldn’t be pushing other buttons to get him going.

Death, taxes, the Phillies’ offense doing nothing on the Sunday of a road trip

There is no shame is seeing Misiorowski set the strikeout record tonight

Hope Gabriel Rincones, Jr. knows where his suitcase is

Giglio, Wednesday afternoon: “you know, if you look at it, Duran has been a little shaky lately.” Hugh: “mmhmm” Giglio: “I just don’t think I can trust him in big moments right now” Hugh: <falls asleep, head hits mic> Giglio: “I mean honestly, is he THAT dominant? I don’t know”
