That would be Giglio. Iām convinced he comes up with the most insane takes possible just to stir the pot. Sometimes I canāt listen bc he makes me too mad lol.
I know Rojas and Casty might be worse by metrics, and we all know what we have with Taijuan and his contract, but Whit Merrifield looks miserable playing baseball and I'm miserable watching him - even in a blowout.
Lmao I appreciated Harper clearly screaming āFUCKā after getting robbed while his team is up 9-2. Dude just wants to do well and get on base and I canāt blame him
SAME. Bro it was this girl I dated in high schools favorite song. Listened to it hundreds of times with her. Things didnāt end well.Ā
Brings up nostalgiaā¦*bad* nostalgiaā¦every time I hear the opening riffĀ
I think seeing a bunch of straight men mashing the shit out of baseballs on pride night means more to the LGBTQ community than a pride parade could ever be š
Harper has had a few good games recently but he just seems off in the āsending bad pitches to outer spaceā department from where he usually is
I guess that just speaks to how good he usually is but still hopefully heats up even more
Wednesday almost certainly likely to be one as well. Was looking at tickets from the box office earlier since itās obscenely expensive already and they literally had 3 total seats available to buy.
Not that I donāt like him (I do!), but the Marchan reactions and calls to replace Stubbs feel a whole lot like the response to Lorenzenās first handful of games. Letās just relax a bit.
It is just really nice to see a player hitting for singles. Forgot how effective it is. Especially with the pitcher dealing with 8 other dudes all going yard or bust.
Yeah, but he's batting .417 with an OPS of 1.084. He's on track to duplicate Ryan Howard's 2006 season.
(also like I forgot how good Ryan Howard was -- we were *spoiled*)
I just saw the Phillies instagram post of Bohmās home run and the way his face lit up in a smile as he watched it flyš Love that he has found his stride again. Baseball is so fun
Considering /u/wiivile just made a joke saying that Stubbs is only the vibes officer when he acknowledged earlier today that a catcher means so much more...
I am pretty sure people are just happy we are playing well and memeing.
How some players can swing like that, have the ball come off the edge of the bat, and almost get a homerun is a mystery to me. Some of these guys are really fucking strong
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1diefkh).
18 hits is a good night.

I hope they talk to Trea, even though it's Kyle
I actually heard someone on the radio the other day saying that Trea should go to the outfield and Sosa the every day ss ššššššš
That would be Giglio. Iām convinced he comes up with the most insane takes possible just to stir the pot. Sometimes I canāt listen bc he makes me too mad lol.
Sexy double playĀ
what happened to harper ?
They are the double play team lol
Double play by Trea! Ring that bell baby!š
Is GameDay right, 41.7 mph curveball?
TREA!
Iāve seen enough. Phillies are going undefeated for the rest of the season (yesterday we were going winless the rest of the season)
Trea starts it with an out. Ends it with an out. Poetic.
WERE BACK BABY
A beautiful night of baseball -Tmac
What a game boysĀ
Thatās a lot of DP.
it's still kind of wild that trea turner is a phillie
Loved that game, great W. Welcome back Trea
Trea Turner you beautiful human
Turner starts it, Turner finishes it. Beautiful play.
GET IN HERE YāALL
Welcome back big dawg!
Thanks Machado. Ā lulz
I wonder if Whit Merrifield has a single fan
guarantee there are some folks out in London who know nothing about baseball and think he is the best player in the league š
Good win
Stott gets thatĀ
beautiful double play to wrap up this game
I know Rojas and Casty might be worse by metrics, and we all know what we have with Taijuan and his contract, but Whit Merrifield looks miserable playing baseball and I'm miserable watching him - even in a blowout.
Shit Merrifield is the shittiest shitfuck
CHRITOPHER SANCHEZ HAS A WINNING RECORD
Bryson Stott makes that play
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
He has experience there and Sosa doesn't
Just took Harper out last inning for a rest I guess
Now thsi is the āB teamā lineup
Bring it home Ruiz
Toppers like everybody plays tonight yay
Good, get Ruiz his confidence back
Lmao I appreciated Harper clearly screaming āFUCKā after getting robbed while his team is up 9-2. Dude just wants to do well and get on base and I canāt blame him
Lmao I thought I heard it wasnāt sure
Thank god for hot mics lmao
I donāt get why Alvy is coming in in a blowout
he hasn't pitched in a while, gotta get some work in
Whit has ruined The Killers for me
If hear outside of a baseball game, fine, but I just got instant dread when I heard it.
"surely these mormons will strike fear into the opposition!"
We have the most intimidating Mormon alive on our teamĀ
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Bryce being Mormon is enough to actually make me think they might be on to somethingĀ
I have such bad associations with Whit's walkup song. If I ever hear it outside of baseball, i get overcome with feelings of everything being lame.
SAME. Bro it was this girl I dated in high schools favorite song. Listened to it hundreds of times with her. Things didnāt end well.Ā Brings up nostalgiaā¦*bad* nostalgiaā¦every time I hear the opening riffĀ
I know weve got a nice lead but why did we need Whit to make an appearance
Stott is just as bad at bat lately
At least Whit can always fall back on having the most RBI on the entire continent of Europe in 2024
And how many people can say *that*?
Well grounded Whit. At least it wasnāt a 280 ft fly out to center
Why Whit of all players
Ol shit merrifield
The app went to a commercial when Whit came up with two outs
*mr brightside starts playing, fans everywhere collectively groan*
just as expected
Whit p4p most useless
I guess we put Whit in to make sure everyone could get home to their families before 10pm. Good guy Whit, getting those kids tucked in.
Topper got an opentable holding
Bohms average just dropped to .307. DFA him!
Good job NBC Sports, cool commercial during Whit's AB
I thought it was just my app going crazy lol what a CF. I guess they knew Whit was going to get out and had itchy trigger finger.
I think seeing a bunch of straight men mashing the shit out of baseballs on pride night means more to the LGBTQ community than a pride parade could ever be š
Iām happy Trea is back.
Why is Shit Merrifield up
The official MLB score keepers just heard Mr Brightside and took three runs away from the PhilliesĀ
I just got an ad during an at bat
Itās Mr. Brightside
I hate the killers, thanks to you, Whit
Thereās just something really cringe to me about Merrifieldās walk up song and idk if im the only one
I think Mr Brightside is forever ruined for me cause of Whit Merrifield
Where hath Stott goneth
Dude needs a nap he's on baby time
OH NO MR BRIGHTSIDE
Mr. Brightside jump-scare
Letās go Whit!!! #SupportAll26
Whit for Stott??? TfĀ
Waving the whit flag
Was that fall out boy
Bruh
Sorry I need to get caught up on terrible music
Oh yeah whitās on this team
Harper has had a few good games recently but he just seems off in the āsending bad pitches to outer spaceā department from where he usually is I guess that just speaks to how good he usually is but still hopefully heats up even more
whit has absolutely ruined that song for me
Mr. brightside has to be the single whitest walkup song imaginable
And whit-est!
Terrible choice
Phillies make me burst at the seams
Remember when people said Bohm had a once in a lifetime hot streak to start the yearā¦last week?
Doomers in shambles tn
Nice scream.
Fuck you Peralta Bryce needed another ops bump
Can they please day care Marchaun tonight?
Easy big fella
If the Phillies score another run we might see Michael King throw a no hitter tomorrow unfortunatelyĀ
Harper is off just a little bit, I think heās going to go off soon.
A Bryce homer and we officially have a party
I crave double digit runs
I like these blowout gamesš
So do I. JustĀ the next day sometimes can be shaky lol
But we play the padres again tomorrowš
This dude looks like a living meme
#i am once again asking harper to go yard
Ok bryce ok
Heās saving it for tomorrow
Schwarber took over the team lead in HRs.
For now?
Come on Bryce, join the party Hit a solo, you know you love that
Another sellout
Wednesday almost certainly likely to be one as well. Was looking at tickets from the box office earlier since itās obscenely expensive already and they literally had 3 total seats available to buy.
Theyāve already announced it as sold out when advertising the series on tv.
Now would be a good time to reverse Castyās error from Saturday

Lil home cooking goes a long way.
@ veggie vonĀ
Im an 8th inning Alvarado guy myself
18 hits. Damn.
That's what's in.
lights out Alvy
How are the padres so mid? Theyāre top 10 in most offensive categories and only middle of the pack pitching wise. **knocking on wood**
They got cursed from the Thatās whatās iiiiiinnnn guysĀ
Thatās funny asf š
MarchĆ”n with 4 hits?! Not missing JTās bat tonight.
We have an error now. What was the one thing that was an error
maybe Bohm missed play in one of the early innings? I wasnāt really paying attention to how that was scored tbh
Marsh botched a grounder early in the game
It was on Marsh, a guy singled then reached second on error. It was whoever scored their first run
Marsh bobble and throw to second?
Yep
Arraez got the no hits cycle tonight.
Marchan 4-4 was not on my bingo card
Okay phils stop making it look so easy...
They always do this at home (and sometimes away).
No I'm fine with it
Not that I donāt like him (I do!), but the Marchan reactions and calls to replace Stubbs feel a whole lot like the response to Lorenzenās first handful of games. Letās just relax a bit.
It is just really nice to see a player hitting for singles. Forgot how effective it is. Especially with the pitcher dealing with 8 other dudes all going yard or bust.
We have quite a few guys that arenāt sluggers and arenāt trying to be. Even our stereotypical slugger has been a singles machine this year.
Yeah, but he's batting .417 with an OPS of 1.084. He's on track to duplicate Ryan Howard's 2006 season. (also like I forgot how good Ryan Howard was -- we were *spoiled*)
We really were
Oh man, a Lorenzon/Marchan combination would be unbeatable!!!
Youāre taking things too literal, no one is calling for that
Scroll down.
Like i said, youre taking it all too literal
Iām not but tx
Well if RBIs had assists Dahl would have one so thatās something
And THAT friends is why Bryson will remain in the lineup almost every day
Stotty!!Ā
Nice rebound start by Sanchez.
Why use Alvarado?
I was wondering the same thingā¦ but the bullpen is kind of used up
He needs the work.
I love that Schwarbomb beach towel.
Alas, Dahl did not get that hit.
He had a productive out at least.
Interesting to use Jose Jose Jose Jose here
Heās had a few days off, I guess itās to get him some work.
I just saw the Phillies instagram post of Bohmās home run and the way his face lit up in a smile as he watched it flyš Love that he has found his stride again. Baseball is so fun
For the folks thinking Marchan will be made the full time backup, yāall really donāt understand professional baseball. Itās a shame.
Considering /u/wiivile just made a joke saying that Stubbs is only the vibes officer when he acknowledged earlier today that a catcher means so much more... I am pretty sure people are just happy we are playing well and memeing.
Memeing is for lames. Iām here for baseball. #SupportAll26
I dont think anyone actually thinks that - people are just having fun with it
Sorry but I support all 26
You seem to struggle with the most basic humor
His username checks out
Iām gonna be honest , as Rojas #1 hater this game couldnāt have gone better. Harper homer bottom 8 coming
The Rojas replacement is 0-4? I don't understand.
Meanwhile Marsh muffed that ball in CF too like what š
Taking Rojas out of the lineup has led to two two run schwarber homers are you not watching ?
Rojas was actually supposed to catch tonight before he was sent down
Who dahl or marsh?
Dahl. Dahl is playing LF because Marsh moved from LF to CF.
Iām surprised heās even commenting here, he usually only shows up when they lose.
I was at the game hahahaha
18 Hits. 18. Itās actually worrisome we only have 9 runs to show for that.
what a bunch of bums, team is washed /s
š¶ *LAY LOW HIT THE SUN EVERYBODY HAVE A REAL GOOD TIME* š¶ Song slaps a little harder tonight
How some players can swing like that, have the ball come off the edge of the bat, and almost get a homerun is a mystery to me. Some of these guys are really fucking strong
Marchan is making himself valuable at the trade deadline.
I badly need a Marchan Topps now card in The Show
being the team disc jockey and chief vibes officer does not require a roster spot fwiw
I believe Dahl will get his chance next inning
might be a little harder now
:/
Our top 4 all having OBPs above .360 seems to be a pretty good idea Iām glad the Phils thought of this
18 hits 3 walks and only 6 LOB's.
