Now That The Phillies Are Signing Actual Pitchers, You're All In Deep Shit
Okay so maybe that's a lot of money but guess what? It's not coming out of your pocket so who cares?
The Phillies went out and they loaded up on bats last offseason, obviously headlined by Bryce Harper, to launch balls out of Citizens Bank Park and all the way up to North Philly. They also got the Best Catcher In Baseball in JT Realmuto. Then the Phillies did the right thing and they told Gabe Kapler to take a hike. They brought in a guy who actually knows how to manage a World Series caliber team and is an actual leader of men in Joe Girardi. The only issue with the Phillies?
Well this team still can't pitch for shit 4 out of every 5 days. But that's not the case anymore because the Phillies are about to start throwing GAS. And as bad as I feel for the rest of the league, I feel even worse for JT Realmuto's hand right now. Guy might want to start wearing some gloves under his glove. But yeah, the Phillies are clearly focused on pitching now and everybody else is fucked because it's the only thing holding this team back from dominance. Nola, Wheeler, keep the checkbook open and go after another starter and some bullpen arms. Let the bats absolutely mash balls into orbit and then let Joey G work his magic with the lineup. Folks, we're getting October baseball back in Philly.
