Looking more and more like they will be easily knocked out by anyone in the NL. Team has been nothing but mediocre for three months now. Middleton can’t be too happy.
They are embarassing. Team really needs a complete makeover for’25.
These are the dumbest hitters on one team in baseball
Horrible approaches up and down the lineup

Middleton must be fuming
The outfield needs an overhaul at the end of the season. Finding a replacement for Marsh should be a priority. He’s nothing but a platoon player who really isn’t anything special. Can’t hit a breaking ball if his life depends on it and strikes out way too much. 14 for his last 86.

Braves have figured it out. Never throw the Phillies a fastball. These idiots will consistently swing at breaking stuff out of the zone.

Stevenson and Schwarber show good patience working back to back walks. Big spot for Turner

And no shocker, Turner comes up small and grounds into a double play.

The “Big 3” very very very small
Will be swept in KC.

All the talk from the Phillies players about how important this series was and not a single hitter showed up. This is what you get when you have a team with filled overpaid and aging players.

For all of their injuries, Braves showed more heart and fire than the Phillies. I’m sure we’ll hear the usual excuses, but this team has no leader.

And Thomson will have no plan on how to stop the slide. He’s shown he’s pretty content with letting the players do what they want.

He is merely a puppet and cheerleader
He really has no major impact once the game starts
Never ever calls out bad play or dumb approaches at the plate i
If Scott Servais can get fired with 40 games Togo,why not Thomson?
