PhilaPhans

Offense comes up small again.

Game has all the markings of 2-1 loss.

How many pitches that were actually over the plate have the Mets thrown?

Team is filled with hitters who are undisciplined.

And wheeler gives up the lead off walk

Cut down on the swings, gain better bat control.

Put the damn ball in play.

Castellanos is such a dumb fucking hitter. Didn’t swing at a single strike

Castellanos is so dumb.

Immensely talented roster. No reason for this approach.

This is the same offense as last year.

Going nowhere.

This is who they are as hitters.

Book is out on them to just continue to throw balls, they won’t take walks.

Indeed, just throw breaking balls out of the zone and these hitters will chase and chase.

All talk this winter from the Phillies was cutting their chase rate and put the ball in play. Only Schwarber might have actually tried that.
