Phillies' 2023 GDT #89: 07/09/23 Phillies(48-40) @ Marlins(52-39) - 1:40pm

[bigel57]

Schwarber and Turner with zero discipline.

[bigel57]

Nola Mr Hyde showed up today.

[BelmontShore]

Already on vacation.

No energy.

Nola has looked like he'd rather be anywhere else but the mound at loanDepot Park.

[Christopher]

This is exactly how I envisioned this series.

Fortunately, the Rays series was way way different than how I envisioned it.

Yesterday & today don't spoil what Phillies have done in June/July, but maybe it tempers the expectations of some of those folks elsewhere (not here) who have been irrationally exuberant lately. This is a far cry from the 2022 offense.

[BelmontShore]

Really dumb team, in all reality.

[BelmontShore]

Stott has to get that lead runner from getting to 2B. After that, Turner a real let down as a defender.

[wrench248]

A team filled with stupidity.

They have to dump Schwarber in the off-season. Completely worthless

They cannot have this guy on the team next year. Baseball is moving in a different direction from the way this team is constructed. Pitching,speed,defense,contact,home runs ..Phillies have pitching,which is not what we have expected. 2022 looks like an aberration

[Christopher]

They have pitching for now.

Painter & Abel, at best, can't help until August 2024.

So the rotation next year is aging Wheeler, Walker, Suarez and .........

How they address the top of the rotation for 2024/2025 will determine everything

Dumping Schwarber and letting Nola should help a little on that front. However, the Phillies are going to have to hope Turner somehow turns it around next season.
