@ToddZolecki: RHP David Robertson had some sort of setback in his recovery from Tommy John surgery. He had hoped to rejoin bullpen sometime next month.

By no means a perfect statistic but the bullpen has 7 of the 14 losses so far whereas they had 29 of the 81 losses last year (and I wouldn't exactly call last year's bullpen competent).
Two days later I get a text back that says I'm a basketball player and a businessman, not a Thundercat.

Hearing good things about Connor Seabold, the 2nd piece Red Sox got in the Philly trade, big RHP seen as potential No. 3 starter.


He probably never heard of him before today

Have to give Rhys props. Thought he might be in a downward spiral but he’s really picked it up. Cutch, too. Great to see for both of them.

Phillies have a positive run differential, only other team in the NL East with one is the barves. Outside the NL East only 3 other teams have positive run differentials.

I am not sure we're good, but I don't think we're bad. And there's a lot here to like.

Would be fun to be in the postseason, even if it's a bit fake.

Top to bottom, this feels like one of the better offenses in baseball. Don't know anything about any other baseball though. SP is above average. Bullpen is whack but that's the thrill of our journey. I say win the whole damn thing
