Bohm

Great to see Bohm having that success.

OMG it finally happened...Giardi fixed the lineup. Phillies have not had much luck against Gray in the past, but this offense needs to wake up and sweep this 2 game series

Not trying to enact a reverse jinx here, but I'll be happy if it happens:

Guys, the Mets are really fucking good.
Smart manager, a confident clubhouse with strong leadership for the first time in years, and, as the year goes on, they'll have 7 quality starting pitchers to pick from.

It remains to be seen how they react when they encounter their first stumble of the year, but I don't think Showalter will let them go fully off-kilter.

I think they're going to run away with the division

This is getting closer. The thing is it's never going to be perfect because the Phillies have two #3 hitters, One #9 hitter and the rest are all 5,6and 7 hitters. They have zero top of the order hitters and it's no surprise Harper has so many solo HR in his career in Philly. But, this is better than what Joe's been running out there so far.

Good results so far....Bohm is setting the table

I am not a fan of Schwarber in the 1 hole, but if the guys at the bottom of the order can get on, eventually it will pay off

Need Segura to break out of this quick....too good of hitter for this

Schwarber leading off is great.
