Who are these Phillies?

OTTO!!!

Number 8!!!

Trea halfway to a cycle with at least 3 more plate appearances.

A bullpen game?

Maybe a storm related outage.

No ghost runner until the 13th inning. I personally like the DH; too many pitchers have no clue about what to do at the plate. Plus with no DH the Phils would have had no Harper and no World Series.

"Crying won't help you. Praying won't do you no good." Yes I know the song was about a flood and not a drought-but it still applies. Maybe praying would help if you acted like you really believe in the word of God. "Faith without works is dead." James, Chapter 2.

I propose "Blue America" and "The Fascist Republic of America" aka the FRA. Open to suggestions on renaming Blue America but FRA is non-negotiable.

How did any black players stand Tuberville? Seriously. He was a decent college coach but kept leaving places. A liar there too; claimed he recruited Patrick Mahomes while he was HC at Texas Tech (He didn't.). He never would have made it in the NFL. Not even as a quality control assistant.

With that attitude just DFA him (I know they won't.). Thank God he only signed a 1 year contract. If the Phils re-up him but let Kyle or J.T. go my head will explode (I have resigned myself to Ranger leaving. ☹️).

Picking up my quarterly wine order from the winery closest to my condo. While waiting I noticed they sell soap here. IMO a very odd combo.

Say what you want about the Phillies bullpen, but this team needs a bat more than anything else. A right-handed bat that can play in the outfield. Center field ability a bonus but not an absolute requirement.

Friday Football Just read a list: Top 25 top NFL players of all time. Many are on my All-Time post merger team. A few are not. And I found one glaring omission from the list: Bruce Smith. 9th All-Time weighted AV. Career sack leader. FTR only DE Reggie White. No Deacon Jones.

Saquon Barkley's usage, lost starters on defense, and a reigning 20-year hex on NFC East champs trying to repeat could all get in the Eagles' way in 2025.

Hey Phils fans! Julio Rodriguez is good defensively. Would Seattle consider trading him? Casty is awful at defense (and still swinging at that low & outside pitch way too much). Logan O'Hoppe would not be a long term solution at catcher had he not been traded for Marsh.

Another day another dozen emails for life insurance and auto insurance. I live alone. If I passed tomorrow my 2 adult kids would inherit a condo with a mortgage that they would sell. Right now I don't need life insurance. And I am pleased with my current auto insurance. Marking spam does no good.

Incorrect. The Phils play the Reds on the 4th. But at least they got the time right. Hate to show up at 6:05 for a 1:05 game.

I see that the Supreme Court is doing its part in the establishment of the FRA. Not surprised one bit.

"Tell me lies tell me sweet little lies"

Or Camden.The places I found online that call themselves "Supermarkets" are the size of your old school stand alone Wawa. FTR there are NO Wawas in the City of Camden. 2 nearby in Pennsauken are the closest.

Just swung at 2 low and outside pitches.

No.

"Hey Man..."

A German court has fined the country's football association over a scandal connected to the hosting of the 2006 World Cup. The trial had been going on for more … This took 19 years?!?

Florida Man strikes again.
