lineup
on my way to the game
>>75570854
>A-Done hitting clean up
Cesar!
>Galvis hitting 2nd
LETS GO PETE
>>75570854
I looked that up earlier today and literally recognized 0 names on Philly
I think they have 1 starter (Hellickson) I've heard of, and that's it. Do they at least have some 90 year old guy that's been around forever like Colon or something?
>>75571468
We have Kendrick who was a starter for you last season, but he's on the DL
He was hitting at an insane clip too
>>75571468
Saunders has been around for a while.
>>75571372
to clean up the inning with that easy out
>>75571468
Oh and Bucholz, but he's also injured. He's had some good years but his first 2 starts were abysmal
New fan here.
Third phillies game what should I expect?
>>75571468
Michael Saunders, Howie Kendrick.
Also, Freddy Galvis has been a regular player since like 2012
>>75571847
probably pain and suffering since Maeda is a really good pitcher
>>75571847
Gotta score early because Dodgers bullpen is nasty
>>75571872
>Maeda is a really good pitcher
There'll be pain and suffering alright. For the Dodgers, through innings 1-4.
>Chase Utley
What a dreamboat~
>>75571928
he isn't that bad
he just needs time to get used to the MLB rotation
>>75571872
>>75571885
So I have just been watching games for now.
Read the phillies Wikipedia page and watched first 3 episodes of ken burns.
Any other suggestions for getting deeper into baseball?
>>75571967
>he just needs time to get used to the MLB rotation
Like, maybe a season of MLB baseball?
>>75571975
Watch games and don't be afraid to ask questions. Maybe playing a video game can help get a bit more down
>>75571956
A real class act!
>>75572013
>Boo me? Fuck you!
>>75571990
>shove a jap pitcher to MLB rotation his first year
>tired out the ass and then goes to the post season even worse
he is now in the mechanics phase
Does Seager have an unusually small head, or an unusually large helmet
>>75572057
Yeah just like how Nomo threw 230 Ace-level innings in his second season because Jap pitchers need so much time to adjust.
On any given out, can a player give the ball to a fan?
What is a good batting average?
Also what are players constantly spitting?
>>75572143
.999
cum
>>75572143
a .300 hitter is a very, very good hitter under most circumstances. .260-.270 are good hitters
>Eick's curveball
It's gonna be a good pitching night
GODDAMN KRUK COME BACK
ah fuck it turning on the dodger booth
>>75572143
a good avg is typically considered .250
anything below is below average
.220 is the Mendoza line ie the avg that gets you sent down
>>75571372
He's in this super ultimate slump to the point I'd have guessed he had 2 hits this season
Then I see now he somehow has a .250 batting average
Even when he's hot garbage he's league average. I'm willing to ride with him until his contract is up
>>75572209
I watched a bluejays game the other day against cardinals and they had a thingy on screen that showed pitcher name/batter name as well as the pitch location at all times.
Why doesn't philly have this?
>>75572246
.250 with no power is not league average. He's hitting like vintage Adam Kennedy, while giving you nothing with the glove or on the bases.
Are most of the phillies relatively new players?
>>75572300
>nothing with the glove
bruh
>>75572214
>a good avg is typically considered .250
.250 would've been 116th among 149 qualified batters in 2016.
>>75572327
Even in his prime he was garbage with the glove.
>>75572311
Kinda, there's a fair amount of vets on the roster right now. By july depending on how the season goes a lot of them will prob be gone
Hellickson might be the oldest guy we have at the end of the season
>>75572256
Philadelphia's broadcast rights are owned by NBC Comcast. the game you were watching was broadcast by Fox
>>75572385
I thought the goal was to trade hellickson
>>75572375
His glove was always fine. He was just molasses in an igloo
>>75572462
What teams have fox as their broadcast so I can know to switch to them if phillies play.
>>75572479
glove as metaphor for defense.
>>75572478
It is, but if he regresses and we can't get much for him, might as well ride the reason out, especially if we're still playing .500 ball come summer
>>75572512
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_on_regional_sports_networks
Part of me wants Utley to hit a dinger
all of me wants the Phillies to be up by 5 runs by then
>>75572605
I don't even think he's physically capable of homering anymore
Who is this guy?
>>75572630
I was at the game where he hit the slam against the Phils, i think he's got a few left in him
>>75572643
Jackie Robinson
Holy crap Andre Eithier is still in the league?
Who let the Mexicans in this thread?
WELL TOM, THAT STREAK ENDS TONIGHT WHEN MAEDA GETS A CGSO
Dodgers b-team is ass
Is Philadelphia ever gonna get on base?
goddamn he looks so lost out there, every at-bat
>>75572948
After the Cubs series
Damn desu nice play
btw Cesar Hernandez got bumped up to 84 overall in MLB
FREDDY
Lads I think this time Freddie's for real
I know we say it every year
Maeda is fucking broken. Send him back to Japan.
>Odubel is showing the umpire where the pitch was again
Sooner or later he's going to get tossed
>>75573255
What do you mean?
>>75573333
every so often Herrera will point at the strikezone and say something to the umpire. He has a habit of getting right to the edge of irritating someone and stopping. He can also get pretty glacial when getting in the box.
I guess it's just accepted Odubel now
>>75573255
Yeah he'll get tossed one day, but that'll be pretty fun to watch and I'm sure he'll learn from it. I love him tho he's one of the most entertaining phillies to watch in years
Thank god for the fucking wind
okay I'm done on maeda
20 million 6 years for a RP ain't so bad
pls get out of this Jerad
Embarrassing..
That was sloppy as fuck.
Freddie is so fucking hot right now
please stop shifting franco
Man i trust the pitcher's spot more than tommy lately
>Utley still has the same walk-up music
Guys I miss him
>inb4 cody gets a walk off bunt
CODY HAS WHEELS
That's it, trade the entire team and start from scratch. I can't watch these dodgers anymore
AAAAAGGGGH
>>75571956
>>75572013
>>75572605
He also has great hair obviously
Bellinger is fast as fuck.
I better see a homer because that is a gold moment for one
Damn these are the phillies i know xd
Maeda gets on base quite often....
Yeah, he sounds like he's from DelCo
SeaGOD
FUCK he's too fast
>>75574431
N-Nani!?
>>75574431
Glad I went to the game yesterday, this one is falling apart fast
GODLEY
>horr du I ruin gamu?
>homurr or 4 walkus
They're decretly gonna walk Bellinger. They not gonna challenge him.
Not even close.
>>75574509
too late
>aSLOWgon
Cody getting hotter and hotter
>le taco truck speed man
They were just baiting another error. He knew he'd be safe
>>75574523
What the fun is happening tonight? The roles bunt? This shit? Bro? What the fuck is happening.
Is Bellinger elite?
What did he say that shit with the Torta was?? I had the tater tots. They're quite good and like $8. Dodger stadium has some shit food. I miss the Carl's Jr.
Just came over from NFL draft coverage. Has Maeda been locating his pitches or have the Phils' offense fallen back down to earth?
>>75574555
baseball is getting hot
orange ducks
>rags
whos are looking like a legit team
>eaton
fun times
>>75574662
We've had so many swings and misses mang, he's just fooling all of them. Galvis had a great triple in the 3rd but besides that it's been pretty anemic
>>75574662
either Phillies are making maeda look good or he is really starting to morph into that solid 2 that many thought he'd be
>>75574662
Maeda is working fine. Niggas overreacting if he gives up a run before the 4th. Change up is nasty as fuck tonight and he's spotting well. The offense has actually shot itself with two rally killers on mental errors. Maeda looks good. He might be done for the night after 2ER 6IP 7K
>>75572690
No seriously, what happened to Puig and Joc?
Can't wait for another 2 out rally
>>75574885
Puig has a day off and Joc is injured.
>>75574809
Nobody in the pen. Maeda will work the 7th.
eickhoff is ross stripling but thiccer
I hate 10 PM games.
Just hope turner swings on the first pitch and we get a pop-up. That's p much the only way to get out of this
>it's a dodgers starter has more than a quality start and then some bean named avilan/baez/romo comes in and gives up 4 runs episode
>>75574990
He's due for a homer
>>75575004
Baez is good. Gave up his first run in 19 innings. Have some respect for the guy. I understand he slow (he's fixed that) and has given up critical homers but the guy is well above average for a reliever. Tired o hearing all this negative shit about Baez as if he was the one inserting himself in the game and willingly giving up runs.
Nobody says shit when he strikes out the side with men on the corners.
>>75575004
I know that episode
I see it every season
Goodnight, lads. If the dodgers keep the lead, GG, if the phillies win, I'll have some bonus fun in the morning
>>75575071
See ya lad. Not looking good tbhq phamily
>14 game hitting streak
>0 HR
>That slugging
Ginger Jesus
This is kinda sad. Why are players so sloppy today compared to against marlins.
JFC. Why does Petey Mac continue to write Tommy Joseph's name in the lineup card?
His swing has looked even worse than Howard's last year.
>>75575142
because that was the marlins these are the dodgers
>>75575142
First west coast trip maybe? The defense has been pretty good this season, and they cost us today. Dodgers lineup is just better in the 2-5 than the marlins and Seager is a monster
>Scott Kazmir is still a Dodger
Holy shit is this al leiters son??????
>that strikeout
Good to see Maeda back.
>>75575310
for a few months
Nice debut.
Love ya Doobs
I think josh fields has to find a solid one two combo instead of breaking breaking breaking fastball
Damn. Franco smacked the ball. Thought it had a chance.
Another RBI! think that's 17 for him
>>75575619
21, actually.
>>75575609
He's all hard fastball withe the curve serving as his change of speed. Basically what Kershaw was when he was 20.
It was just unfortunate that the runner advanced and that be couldn't get field the ball to get the frost first out.
>luis didn't give up 5 runs
is he back?
Can't fault Saunders. Tough pitch to just watch.
>>75575655
Must've been before that grandy
And fuck, good at-bat just a better pitch
Avilan was a top 10 relief pitcher just three seasons ago on 2014. I hope the bullpen pessimists remember these moments when they're good.
>>75575748
think I'll have a few drinks
Well, there's a bright side to this situation:
Jeanmar can't blow a lead now.
Is jenmar the closer?
>>75575758
3 seasons ago, Storen and Papelbon were top 4 relievers
Relievers and closers arms are fleeting as fuck
>>75575797
Neris is Jeanmar is shit
>>75575797
No, Jeanmar blew a couple saves early on this season, and Mackanin is trying a closer by committee kind of thing.
Kenley closes with 12 pitches.
Absolutely overwhelmed
despite his loss in velocity , kenley's k/9 rate has gone through the roof still tho
>tfw no more 100mph cutters
Why the fuck does dodgers field have so much blowing trash on it?
>>75575996
unusually windy day
>>75575981
He stopped throwing 4 seamers. He hit 97 in SF when he closed. He just learned to spot all cutters with the occasional slider. Hence his stupid K to BB ratio.
>>75575996
hey man thats not nice to say about the phillies
we love it
gg LA, 6 W streak was nice while it lasted.
gg phils
They should just stop the game when kenley hits the mound at the 9th.
gg doyers
maeda 2 skronk
