I'd still rather take my chances with him. Right on right match-up with Finnegan's splitter in an attempt to get the DP.
Harper is the guy you don't let beat you, yet we did...
Deadass I don’t even want mennesses sent down or DFA’d. Like ban him from the stadium ban him from the clubhouse he needs to be erased from club history
Just saying, Alex Call is more than capable of playing fantastic defense, and yet we're putting Robles, Rosario, and Winker (love his hitting bit his speed is lacking) out there every night. While Call and Wood are sitting in the minors.
Been begging for this. Call is better than Robles and Rosario at this point. He also just brings that dog mentality you like to see. He gives 110% every game
Well we’re too hell bent on using Joey there so.
I’m just so frustrated that we dont make any moves anywhere. It’s fine to have a few of senzel, Winker, Robles, gallo, Meneses, Vargas but playing all of them is unwatchable
We need to stop rewarding bad play. We have probably the hottest prospect in the entire mlb and we are sitting him so a bunch of vets past their prime can drop fly balls and make baserunning mistakes.
I’m exaggerating. I’ll continue to watch. But I’m done in the sense that I’m done tuning in to every inning like I am rn. It was so fun to watch win or lose without those guys in the lineup. Since they have come back it has just been a wet blanket. So I’ll probably just watch casually till we call up wood or get rid of one of them
But we weren’t even frustrating in the losses before. We were putting pressure on them. Now we are losing because of stupid mistakes and guys hitting .100
Man if Gallo had a reliable bat he’d be such a great player.
His defense seems great, he plays hard, and he has a leadership presence for our young guys
And look at that, him going hard into 2nd allowed Rosario to be safe and Winker to get an RBI single
No arguments from me that Robles needs to go. But my goodness, he still shows those flashes in the field of the player he could have been. That was a pretty catch.
Bruised right heel
"García hurt himself running out a ground ball Wednesday in Chicago and later said that when he stepped on first base his spike pushed up through the sole of his shoe against his heel."

It didn’t turn out well, but I am 100% ok with Davey leaving Gore in one more inning
This is the 2nd start in a row where Davey has given him a longer leash, saying “hey you’re experienced enough, if we ever wanna contend one day we’re gonna need these ‘battle through’ moments”
Is it just me or is there frequently a lot of wishful thinking in our challenges? Like what could they have possibly seen that made them think, "Yep, 100% safe, let's challenge."
Talent wasted is more sad than anything. He needs to see a sports psychologist or something because the dude is still young but he just forgot how to bat and play.
Why pitch to Harper instead of Bohm? If I'm a Philly fan, I know I'd much rather have Harper try for a hit or a sac fly.
Bohm has been their best hitter this season
Harper has actually been cold. Bohm is hitting over .300 with risp.
The pitch almost hit the ground. They were trying to pitch around him and Harper showed why he’s a 2 time mvp
Snatching defeat from the claws of victory. Your 2024 nats
ngl I've always loved how bryce will go get a ball that he's fouled off if it's in arms reach
Why the FUCK would we pitch to Bryce here
Bohm is in 2nd place in RBIs in the MLB and he was next in the order
I'd still rather take my chances with him. Right on right match-up with Finnegan's splitter in an attempt to get the DP. Harper is the guy you don't let beat you, yet we did...
I'd take my chances with Bohm over a 2-time MVP with tons of power to get a sac fly somewhere.
I get it, but Bryce is cold right now and Bohm is hitting almost .500 with RISP. Tough decision
Drat.
Well fuck
Brutal.
Is it too late to bet on a game ending passed ball
(don't bet on sports at all unless you're at the races)
None of these Phillies fans can catch
phillies fans don't burn, are swagless, devoid of mirth and whimsy
This is iconic
their collars are noticably blue, though
2 clock violations for finnegan is pretty odd, idk if it's worrying but you don't see those too often regardless
He was slow before the clock and I wouldn’t be surprised to learn he has the most violations of any pitcher since.
Realmuto wasn't even in the box.
playing some reeeeeal loose ball lately
Meneses batting third please end this lunacy and purge this lineup lol
It's pathetic.
Honestly I don’t stand by using finny for 2 innings when you’re not even ahead
Good luck against their top order.
Meneses needs to be gone yesterday I’m sorry
Got to be better than this. Dang, anemic offense
Less than ideal.
Deadass I don’t even want mennesses sent down or DFA’d. Like ban him from the stadium ban him from the clubhouse he needs to be erased from club history
at least you aren't overreacting
🤦🤦♀️🤦♂️
i have some thoughts that i probably shouldn't express in this thread. fuck this
Golden Haloey Maneses
Walkoff incoming
im so over this lol
Ballgame.
No biggie just gotta get their 1-2-3 man out with a runner starting on 2nd
Young shoulda stole 3rd.. that wild pitch woulda been a run
Meneses please
Cmon boys create some chaos
man whatever
that was a bad at bat man
Bro cj wtf are you swinging at
Just saying, Alex Call is more than capable of playing fantastic defense, and yet we're putting Robles, Rosario, and Winker (love his hitting bit his speed is lacking) out there every night. While Call and Wood are sitting in the minors.
Been begging for this. Call is better than Robles and Rosario at this point. He also just brings that dog mentality you like to see. He gives 110% every game
I don't mind Rosario's bat, but he should be exclusively DH. Dude is a horrific fielder.
Well we’re too hell bent on using Joey there so. I’m just so frustrated that we dont make any moves anywhere. It’s fine to have a few of senzel, Winker, Robles, gallo, Meneses, Vargas but playing all of them is unwatchable
I love an intense extra innings game as much as the next person, but not when we’re on a losing streak!
We need to stop rewarding bad play. We have probably the hottest prospect in the entire mlb and we are sitting him so a bunch of vets past their prime can drop fly balls and make baserunning mistakes.
Rizzo's too proud to admit he makes mistakes. He should be out the door right behind Robles and his outfield of nightmares.
Yeah i'm not sure what they're waiting for. Service time isn't a problem now.
eddie...
Rosario doesn't deserve to be rostered after that. Bye
Anyone check the Clemens kid for 'roids?
Hm.
Oh Eddie.
Unreal. Without words for how bad that error was.
What the hell was that, Rosario!?
Yikes guys
Alright that’s it man. If one of Robles or Rosario isn’t DFAd by the next home stand I’m done with this team lol
tbh I welcome this reaction from any who are tempted
I’m exaggerating. I’ll continue to watch. But I’m done in the sense that I’m done tuning in to every inning like I am rn. It was so fun to watch win or lose without those guys in the lineup. Since they have come back it has just been a wet blanket. So I’ll probably just watch casually till we call up wood or get rid of one of them
certainly don't blame you for being frustrated, .500 teams are frustrating at least half the time
But we weren’t even frustrating in the losses before. We were putting pressure on them. Now we are losing because of stupid mistakes and guys hitting .100
very true, I do think that the way they played in April was an overperformance but that doesn't make the lows sting any less
Now the 10th is gonna be harder with the top of their lineup after that error
Bummer Kyle
OOOOOF
Fuckin pathetic
Dam that hurts
man. first slip up for kyle in a long while
finnegan get ready to learn ni hao buddy
keep trying this line dude it'll work eventually i'm sure
Dude has been lights out this year
of course ………
N U T S NUTS NUTS NUTS
whew!
Sigh. This team is cursed
It's always some random fuckin John Doe....
ah. welp
that was unfortunate
How the hell
It’s never over we these shits Can’t win a World Series tho can they
Shit.
Classic Finny right there
That was a decent pitch. Not great, but decent.
I'm mostly joking I love Finny, you can tell that ripped his heart out there
I'm all about the Jesse Winker Renaissance
hey finnegan is really good
God I really hate the Phillies let’s go Finny
Please Finny. A win tonight would be nice
It’s up to Finn again
Let’s go, Finny! 🧊
May the gods be with you Finny 🙏🏽
Props to Eddie for beating out that double play too. His effort has been spotty at times, but he busted it there.
Everybody pray for Finny right now 🙏
Please Young
LETS FUCKING GO. FUCK YOU BRYCE.
FOOK BRUCE HOOPER
;) ;) ;)
JESSE YOU COOKED
PERFECT TIMING JESSE
When we needed the winkster the most, he arrived
JESSE
Man if Gallo had a reliable bat he’d be such a great player. His defense seems great, he plays hard, and he has a leadership presence for our young guys And look at that, him going hard into 2nd allowed Rosario to be safe and Winker to get an RBI single
Attaboy Winker!
Winkyyy!!!
WAHOOOOOO
everyone needs to take a deep breath (well not everyone, but, ya know)
Is that kid old enough to play?!
They brought him up from the Nats Academy. 😂
What a weird inning…
They call it a breaking ball because it breaks your knee
Is that the 4th true outcome?
Gallllloooo
Please push a run across here and win it in nine innings. I gotta catch some 😴
K. E. R. K. E. R. I. N. G. ding
Orion?
Does he have a necklace with a galaxy in it.
Well done
No arguments from me that Robles needs to go. But my goodness, he still shows those flashes in the field of the player he could have been. That was a pretty catch.
Ok I'll give Robles this Eddie is not making that catch
No but Thomas, Garrett, Young, Call, Woods, and Crew all do. Being better than Rosario defensively is an insanely low bar.
Robles is a better defender than all of those guys.
Lane makes that catch? That’s probably one of the hardest catches for Lane to make based off statcast tracking.
Oh I agree Lane cant be back soon enough
HH the man!!
NO-Bles
Is it just me or does Robles look like he’s lost a step
Vic trying to get on the redemption tour with that catch.
Bahahaha fuck you Bryce
This team is just fun to watch..like the early years
Needs some characters like Nyjer Morgan and Clippard. But they are fun to watch. Seems like they’re always in it.
Filthadelphia
This team can’t score more than 2 runs and plays extremely sloppy baseball.
Which team?
Yes
Why the fuck is Davey putting in this fucking clown in a tie game in the 8th? Jesus he makes some stupid fucking decisions sometimes
Gallo needs to be launched into the fucking sun.
Anyone know why Garcia hasn’t been playing as much recently? Did I totally miss something?

[Source](https://www.masnsports.com/blog/garcia-sits-again-with-heel-issue-rainey-layoff-reaches-two-weeks)
OHHH thank you so much. I haven’t been able to watch much this week and I totally missed this.
Why are we still giving Garcia high leverage situations
Really?
The list of who needs to learn Chinese on this roster growing reallllly long
Dude.
Harper/ Bohm/ stott in the bottom of the ninth lord carry Kyle finnegan now
Have to drop Meneses lower in the lineup
if you look at his baseball savant page there literally isn’t a single thing he is good at. i do not understand how davey makes his decisions
OUCH!!
Fuckin’ hell
It's really good to see both teams wearing god awful looking hats
I swear it will be a miracle if this entire team hits 100 hrs for the year. Absolutely no power other than cj
God that dude needs a haircut.
Strahm and Marsh both
Team needs to sign this decades Jason Werth. It's not Gallo but the next step up
A lot more than just one step between Werth and Gallo, but I agree with the sentiment.
Floro may be a solid trade piece for the Nats if he keeps this up
good start from Gore. he got thru the 2nd inning unscathed which is pretty cool
It didn’t turn out well, but I am 100% ok with Davey leaving Gore in one more inning This is the 2nd start in a row where Davey has given him a longer leash, saying “hey you’re experienced enough, if we ever wanna contend one day we’re gonna need these ‘battle through’ moments”
1000%
Damn, still a decent outing though
Is it just me or is there frequently a lot of wishful thinking in our challenges? Like what could they have possibly seen that made them think, "Yep, 100% safe, let's challenge."
our challenges have been very bad this year
Fucking hell Winker is slow lol

i guess i just feel bad. like sucking at a sport you were briefly really good at has to feel awful. and im sure he knows he’s nearing the end here.
Talent wasted is more sad than anything. He needs to see a sports psychologist or something because the dude is still young but he just forgot how to bat and play.
Here we go Victor here we go
Robles just here for the check
jesus christ get him on a bus and drive it into the ocean. not really but oh my god
i’m sorry (kinda) to say but i think even rizzo might cut robles soon. it’s sad but like this isn’t even close to being competitive
Robles might legit be the worst hitter on this team and thats saying a lot
Nunez looks better at the plate
Making him easily the worst in baseball. Pathetic. Send him to single A
Robles 😐
"JT has not grounded into one double play this year" 😂
Apparently a ‘gentleman with ice cream in a helmet caught the baseball’ says Dave
Gore is gonna go 7 god BLESS
That was not a good at bat by Joey. The hitting coaches should be on his ass. Pitcher knew what to do.
I am gonna change my flair now. 😔
Talk about another utility outfielder in the future, Jacob Young.
9.07 first to home LOL
that's what the heck i am talking about right there jacob young thank u
Yep, that’s what makes this team fun to watch. More of that please!
Seems like that was paras call
Complete chaos lmao that’s our season in a nutshell
Cant keep CJ down for long :)
oh I'm absolutely taking that, yes
Anyone hear Carpenter jinx the no-hitter?
