    Yeah....also I don't want to meet anyone who puts any stock, what so ever, in a stupid unscientific poll on twitter.

    I want to meet the 39% of people in that poll from that article who rather have Rhys Hoskins than Mike Trout.  that's a new level of idiocy for Philly fans. 
    WOW>39%?>You're correct: that is a new level of idiocy.

    Crawford looked good last night. Why is Kim Playing? Get Altherr back out there so we can all the young bucks on the field together.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Yeah, the Kim thing makes no fucking sense to me. You trade Hellickson, and he comes back as part of the deal? Fine. But then fucking DFA him like you did Nate Schierholtz when you traded Pence and took a guy back. You have a loaded outfield of options who are going to be here long-term and Kim is not one of them.

    Kim is garbage. Altherr should be back soon.

    How sweet is Hoskins' swing? So effortless and compact for a righty. Pleasure to watch.

    What do you gents think of this? Some of my favorite writers have gone there. Ken Rosenthal actually just started for their national site too since Fox is inexplicably all video content now. They promise no annoying pop up ads, no dumb videos that start automatically, and no stupid hot takes/two dopes arguing for the sake of clicks. Just solid sports writing from knowledgeable people. Subscription is like $4 per month with their discount. I'm thinking of taking the plunge though I'm already paying for the espn inside stuff.....

    I'm thinking about it as well. Seems like everyone worth reading is going the subscription route.

    the font and type on that is terrible but definitely has potential to be good especially if you get access to all the cities and teams.

    Odubel Herrera is one of the most annoying and frustrating player i've ever watched from this franchise.  it takes a special player to misplay one fly ball twice.

    8 hits, 7 rbi, 5 runs scored, 1 double, and 2 homers for Williams, Hoskins, and Crawford last night.....giggity

    crawford is playing third.  now he's playing short. now he's playing second.

    it's all so -- insanely stupid

    galvis is the utility guy.  put your best prospect at short you fucking morons.  no one cares about galvis -- he's not good

    god I hate this team.  Push for 100+.  terrible schedule but these ass holes can get there.  step off SF giants, the phils management is way dumberer

    "Anyone pimping Hoskins is not smart." The Fixer, earlier this year. Great call buddy!
