I still like Bohm but sitting him some of those early games and starting him tonight when Ranger gets a lot of left side grounders is just more "Lol Joe" stuff.

I understand your point - but you can't have a 3B that you have to hide. Phils are evaluating 3B &SS this month. By May there will be everyday starters and others will either be gone or in AAA

You have to tip your cap to the Mets hitters, they are taking some 2 strike pitches and putting bat on ball and hitting it to RF for singles...Meanwhile the Phillies hitters can not hit pitches in the zone....well not Didi, he swung at 3 balls I think.

What do they say, if you have 2 QBs you dont have 1. I think you go with a standard lineup, all this switching everyday fucks with your team. Regardless of the pitching or defense, you are not going to win games if you are not scoring runs

[headclown]

That was a real nice changeup by Nelson on the 3-2 pitch

Phillies are a HR hitting team, not going to manufacture runs, strike out way too much. Not a recipe for a winning season, let alone playoffs. Yeah I know it’s early but this is who they are.

Meh.

They manufacturered runs on Friday, hit HRs on Saturday. They aren't just a HR hitting team. They struggled yesterday with the lineup change and it's only 2.5 into the fucking game, today.

Could you be more of an extremist?

Bohm is unplayable at 3B.

Switching is not the issue. Teams have won championships with mass platooning - they need to figure out 3B, SS and CF. Stott will eventually start everyday somewhere, but between Camargo, Didi & Bohm, they need one to be at least adequate

Can Bohm just DH? I don’t get it, you play baseball all you life and you’re terrible in the field.

I probably could be if I really wanted to, lol. We will see how it all plays out this season. I’m optimistic they can steal a WC spot.

sigh Mean Jean - how can you do that?
