We stink.
I can't believe that Strahm and Covey aren't even in the Top 12 problems on this team.

Trea Turner well on his way to be the biggest free agent bust signing in Phila sports history

Only 10+ years left on his contract

The starting pitching is by far their biggest problem. Not even close.

Yes, and their names are Nola, Wheeler, Suarez & Walker. ... Falter has already been punted.

Yes but it’s not rare for pitchers like Nola and Wheeler that pitch deep into post seasons to struggle the following year.

We saw it happen to Hamels.

Their plan was not good going into the year with 0 depth

We're in full agreement there.

Man Alec Bohm has a .315 OBP.

Weird because it’s just accepted he has been much better, but this is borderline unplayable from a corner IF offensively.

I mean Turner and Schwarber are much bigger issues.

Also need a 1B. Maybe Hall, but maybe an easy place to add offense via trade

Turner’s strikeout in the 7 th just now may be the worst AB I have seen in years.
The guy is totally lost and getting worse every day
