I was reticent to mess with Bohm, but it's time now to put him at 1B and play Sosa nearly every day. Our lineup is a disaster.

Do that as the bridge until they acquire a RH-hitting first baseman by trade.

AXS TV is showing the reruns on Friday nights.

But I digress. Phils take 2-3 this weekend and slowly get them back on track.

[Christopher]

They absolutely have to make hay in the next 20 games:

-- 7 vs. Reds
-- 3 vs. Marlins
-- 3 vs. White Sox
-- 4 vs. Rockies
-- 3 vs. Mariners

Need a minimum of 13-7, which would put them at a reasonable 14-12 overall.

Need 5-2 vs. the Reds, and then hope for good pitching matchups vs. Marlins and Mariners, especially

Also, no off day now until April 24, so we're going to see bullpen games and all the relievers.

[Christopher]

Because AFTER those 20 easier games, we seeing teams like the Astros, Dodgers, Blue Jays

[BelmontShore]

Seriously. What the fuck were Turner, Schwarber and Realmuto swinging at? Why are you chasing pitches that far out of the zone in the 1st inning?

Fear of a shitty ump?

[BelmontShore]

If Stott moves the runner, that hard line drive by Bohm is an RBI.

Hm. Great baseball podcast name.
