    Back to hating Nick?  I haven't been watching much lately, is he ice cold again?
    I'll always root for Nick.

    Agree 💯 on the ghost runner thing fucking the RPs.  I hate extras in regular season, now.
    And sorry man, I've never liked Nick - as a baseball player that is, everything else seems just dandy. Stats player, doesn't show up enough, not consistent enough, not a fan of his swing or approach at the plate. When Schwarber signed it boggled my mind they still went out and signed him. I think his contract is very bad.
    Hope that Nick can do some heroic shit in playoffs to get some love from the Phils fans.  I think he was just in his groove when he played for the Reds....same awesome teammate, but he hit better and better across those few years. 

    I get why yall don't like him as a player.
    He kind of carried the team in the first half, keeping us not too far underwater. It's just like, dude take a pitch.
    Haha.  Yeah, he likes to swing.  (Early and often)
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Charlie appears to be writing Phillies columns. He. Is. The. Best.
    I have no idea who this is. I guess that's until Gelb shows up?

    Really digging this daily pod action for every team during the week.

    “Was there any concern that he would team up with another small man to step inside of a trench coat little rascals style?”
    that. is. hilarious.

    I'm pretty sure you can watch the games for free via apple? Or at least I think it was that way. Being able to select Franzke for the play by play is great.

    It's not coming next year and I don't want the full robot umps at all but cannot wait for a limited strategic ball/strike challenge system because these umpires are freaking trash.

    That is good stuff.  I saw this replayed on highlights but the 2-2 vs 3-1 analysis is strong.

    Where were we talking about the whole Athletic/PHLY thing? Whatever, it is surprisingly fun to say The Failing New York Times when talking about The Athletic.

    ...what the hell is Bryce doing swinging early after first two guys easily walk? And then hit into a double play? Ugh, at least we got a run.

    Anyway, as I sit in my office at work this is what I've been doing. Here's my playoff roster, barring this fucking team doesn't absolutely shit the bed:

    Lineup
    vs righties vs lefties
    1 Schwarber DH Schwarber DH
    2 Turner SS Turner SS
    3 Harper 1B Harper 1B
    4 Marsh LF Bohm 3B
    5 Bohm 3B Stott 2B
    6 Stott 2B Nick RF
    7 JT C Marsh LF
    8 Nick RF JT C
    9 Rojas CF Rojas CF

    Rotation
    1 Wheeler
    2 Nola
    3 Suarez
    4 Walker
    Bullpen
    LRP Lorenzen
    LRP Sanchez
    MRP Soto
    MRP Hoffman
    MRP Marte
    SU Alvarado


    SU Strahm
    CP Kimbrel

    Bench
    Pache OF/RH PH/Speed
    Wilson RH PH/Corner OF
    Sosa Util
    Castro Util
    Stubbs C

    Proobably drop Castro for another pitcher, but not sure who. But I definitely keep Wilson on the roster over Cave, or even think about bringing Hall up.

    I don't disagree with you to put Marsh in the cleanup spot, but with this manager we'll be lucky if they keep him in the starting lineup every playoff game. Friggin' best hitter on the team for a while this year.

    I hope we all enjoyed that Lorenzen no hitter - LOL.

    Nola got the first 9 guys out. This is going to be an epic collapse coming up.

    I just don't know who to put in the 4 hole right now. The answer should be Nick, but he hasn't been great for over two months. Though today he's showing signs of what he could do. And of course the optimal lineup would be way different as well, but they've shown they can't hit when you put them where they should go.

    Oh my Christ. First, Nick shouldn't be catching that ball, that's a brain fart. But, two, FUCKIN' A NICK BEAUTIFUL THROW!

    I heard Franzke on the radio saying "foul ball, and Castellanos catches it" and yeah I screamed out (in a work office) NO!!!
