Phillies' 2023 GDT #97: 07/21/23 Phillies(52-44) @ Guardians(47-49) - 7:10pm

[FolesMVP09]

Turner is garbage

10 LOB tonight
1 for 6 with RISP

Almost 100 games into the season - this is what the team is

[FolesMVP09]

Guardians now 5-11 with RISP

Phils 26th in OPS with RISP - that is not a team with much of a shot to do anything.

[Christopher]

Hate offensive droughts. Unwatchable.
I'd arguably rather lose by the bullpen giving up 4 in the 9th.

[FolesMVP09]

It isn't a drought Chris. It is a subpar offense. Yes, they will have stretches where they score as all teams do, but they can't hit with RISP. It is 97 games of this.

[Christopher]

No, but it's a drought in the sense that they can generally score 4-5 runs and win the game when the pitching only gives up 2-3. But that requires top-tier pitching at all times.

That's how they played .625 ball or whatever it was before these past few games.

[Christopher]

Anyhoo, let's keep up the trash talk. This game is over. No shot.

Bullpen is more than capable of that as well

Turner is my least favorite player on this team

[FolesMVP09]

Turner is my least favorite player on this team

and Thomson continues to bat a sub 700 OPS, horrible with RISP 2nd

Worst free agent signing (factoring in the years/$$$) in Phila sports history

100%. Heis maddening to watch ,on both sides of the ball. They have made a huge mistake. And why hasn’t Thomson moved him down and Stott up?
Thomson is not much of a thinker
