PhilaPhans

Walker has only pitched one game in relief since 2014. They kind of need him to be their "Eflin" in October, though -- Eflin gave them 10.2 innings over 10 game last October, surrendering no earned runs in NLCS or World Series.

NFC might be decided why who of Dallas and Philly makes the best secondary acquisition

Today's game will tell us more.
FWIW, if I'm the Mets, I'm absolutely treating this like my World Series. They will play us tough. Our offense must be relentless and put them away.

Need it to stay competitive for the #2/#3 wild card. ... If Arizona gets "locked" into the #2 spot, they will be able to tweak their rotation for the wild card series. They won today and the are the top team to root against right now, not for worries over the #1 spot, but so they don't cli...

It would have been 99% Kimbrel's fault, not Castellanos, with the walk and then allowing two stolen bases.

AL West is CRAZY. Going to be a bonkers final week.

Yeah - you were right about Flaherty What would be worse for the Phillies if they somehow make the playoffs? 1) Get swept in the NLWS 2) Lose game 7 of the WS 1-0 to Kyle Gibson I'd still probably take #2. ... But the problem with #2 is NOT the forever pain of coulda/woulda/shoulda. The real proble...
