    Muncy said it was an accident. Bullshit. You can see him staring right at the bag.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    ^ Came here to say something about this and Neris.

    I'm a nerd for statistics and leaning on them for practically everything. The only "eye test"/gut feeling I believe about winning teams are that they learn to grow together, grow to win together.

    And my gut is this team will get punked time and time again. I like Neris getting fired up and yelling 'fuck you'. Then Realmuto pulls him back, puts his glove out to the Dodgers bench to almost say, "sorry about that, it's alright." Now, yelling 'fuck you' is pretty egregious but sometimes ya gotta let it out ya know?

    Muncy stomps on Hoskins' foot (twice!), they do nothing. Neris goes Major League 2 Marbles, Dodgers stick around (not even in their own ballpark) ready to go after Neris, rest of the team does nothing. Kapler forces his ejections, I get that he's not a big "rah rah" guy, which is fine. But I do believe the makeup/leadership of this team starts with the manager and I think the players yawn at him.
    You mean meathead athletes respond to stuff like this?


    Yes, meatheads love this shit. Harper doesn't watch an ounce of film, but I know he'd get a boner for that.

    Absolutely. And it all starts with Roberts at the top - gain every edge you can. Kapler should be genuinely livid about it, but instead he musters fake rage when he's supposed to be "appropriately" ejected.

    Fuck Dave Roberts.  He can go straight to hell, forever.

    Girardi would have been starting a fight with Roberts himself.  Point being, Phillies need to hire Girardi yesterday.  Might not be a "players" manager, but not sure that is what the Phillies need.

    Why was he let go from the Yankees in the first place? Never understood that.

    I have said all along that Kapler is a butthole.

    LOVE that Cliffy is still sore @ Roberts, 15 years later! 
    Baseball is so great.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Boone has grown on me a bit this year, but from what I understand, he maybe wasn't as aligned with analytics as they would have liked and I think the major thing was after 10 years, his intensity was getting a bit much, especially with some of the younger kids.  They wanted more of a players manager. I am a big Girardi fan.  He is a good manager and a great dude.

    Too hard on the younger players or not, I'd take him on the Phillies in a heartbeat.

    Phillies need someone other than the guy who thinks he gains power from the sun on his nuts.

    I obviously agree. I think he'd be a good fit.

    The in-game stuff is nuts 
    When do casinos start taking bets? Are they already? When can non-casinos start taking bets? When can the hoagie shop around the street start taking bets? LET'S ALL TAKE BETS.

    In all seriousness, though, I wish Xfinity Live just became a sportsbook because that's what it looks like it was designed to be.
