Oh look. More Whit Merrifield.

[awfulstack]

“Topper” plays Whit when he is 1/19 against Quantrill.

But sits Stott all the time against lefties when his numbers are better against lefties.

Hate having those braindead managers.

[wrench248]

This offense is just pathetic.

Wasting a great start from Nola.

[BelmontShore]

You just can't keep having such dumb at bats from your 2-3-4 and expect to be a good baseball team. I'm sick of it. Especially from Turner and Harper.

You've got no outs and 1 out, but your approach is awful. Turner isn't prepared to swing in the zone, won't play to RF, RCF. Harper is ahead and is off balance, out front when the 3B is 40ft off 3rd.

Dumb. Just a very dumb, stubborn, undisciplined baseball team.

[BelmontShore]

Oh look. More Whit Merrifield.

Veteranness is very desirable.

[Moviephreak]

Hoffman is going to blow this, isn't he?

[Moviephreak]

Damn Marsh, looking at all 3 strikes? Did you forget that you had a bat in your hands?

[BelmontShore]

Too many batters not ready to swing the bat with 2 strikes.

I won't call them hitters.

Hitters know when to swing. Hitters know how to swing.

[Moviephreak]

There is your Phillies offense. 9 innings and 1 run against the 4 and 12 Rockies.
