I'd let Gibson continue to get pounded and just pitch all 9
No need to waste the bullpen

I'm not moving on from the final year of Segura's contract unless Bogaerts or Turner is coming to the clubhouse. They need the middle infield to remain above-average, because LF and/or CF will be below average
Some point this team has to move on the core that has watched 3 straight collapses.
Segura Hoskins Nola.
Unless you rather move on from JT or Bryce

One way to simultaneously help the Phillies and hurt an opponent would be signing Brandon Nimmo. Gotta overpay, but who cares?
Phils are going to convince themselves that Marsh is the CF answer and ride him to a sub .700 OPS year in 2023

I mean they are doing it with Bohm this year while batting him 3rd for a huge stretch lol

So many questions. I'm not opposed to giving Marsh a shot, but it really matters what the whole rest of the roster looks like.
Nola is a huge conundrum. I don't see a path to October next year without Wheeler/Nola/Suarez atop the rotation and they're right back in that tricky situation where you simply can't throw away (another) year of Harper/Realmuto while waiting for Painter/Abel/McGarry to arrive

At least we get to root for the Mets mid-week

Even if the Brewers get swept, it won't matter. At best the Phils win one this week and the Brewers will be at least tied by Sunday.

You can’t not make the right decisions because of that fear.
This team needs to change. Invest whatever money Hoskins/Nola/Segura would cost and reconfigure the team. A better defensive team.
You’ve already change managers multiple times, it’s the core of the team. It’s rotten.

Unless they get a HR, they struggle to score most nights - got lucky with an infield single. No one stepping up - just an embarrassment

Kyle Gibson being a floppy noodle is a perfect metaphor for what this team is when it gets tough.
