OT: Philadelphia Phillies (MLB): The "Ruf"fled Offseason Thread

[Justified]

Back to 3 games. need to win these next two games in houston first, then have either those two teams split or the Dodgers win both.

[Devastate]

Pirates won, so we gotta keep pace with them.

[Justified]

What a terrible performance. howard is so worthless.

[Hollywood Couturier]

Kershaw scratched and out indefinitely. That's good at least.

[Justified]

Would rather have him pitch tomorrow against Wainwright. This game tonight is the dagger.

[Devastate]

Purrty pathetic

[Phileeguy]

But seriously. You hope they sweep this series, are okay with going 3-1, but deep down you realize that since it's the Astros, you know a split is the best they can come up with.

[Justified]

I guess as long as Dodgers win one of these next two games and the Phillies win tomorrow, it is ok.

[Justified]

Dodgers win in the 9th, Now in tomorrow and you escape a place where you have always played terribly with no damage done.

[Hollywood Couturier]

And the Phillies blow the lead again. *******s.

[Phileeguy]

It was Bring Your Dog to the Park day in Houston. The few fans that came brought some, the Phillies brought themselves.

Are they really going to lose 3 of 4 to the Houston Asstros?

Why not? They do it just about every year.

[Justified]

taps has started playing.

[Protest]

I cannot wait for this **** hole team to move to the AL. Seriously what the ****? It's been like 7 years of this ********, and always in August or September.

[FlyerSithLord]

I'm so irritated with myself for becoming re-invested after the win streak. You can't lose 3 of 4 to a team like the Astros and expect to make the playoffs.

I also don't understand why are starters can't go 7 innings or more. The bullpen had a good few weeks, but good ole' Charlie just kept going to the well. I can't remember the last time he left a starter in after 6 innings. If you honestly thought you were in contention for the playoffs, then your starters can throw 120 pitches.

So ****ing mad. Between the lockout and the phillies, my two favorite sports have been an utter embarrassment this year.

[PayItForward]

Losing 3 out of 4 to the Houston Astros of all teams? How am I not surprised.

[RussianRocket10]

Halladay hasn't been himself all year, even after coming back from that injury.

[Hollywood Couturier]

Oh hey, the Cardinals can beat the Astros.

The Astors could be 0-100, and they'd sweep the Phillies in a 4 game series for their first wins of the year.

[kovultrick]

heads up howard belts one in the 9th

paps cinches it

[JDinklage Morgoone]

The Phillies always lose to the Astros. Like, always.

[Devastate]

Unfortunately that home run was too little too late.

If we were able to win one more game at the astros and didn't blow that 7-1 lead against the braves, we'd be two games. Thats far more doable.

[Hollywood Couturier]

And the Astros leave the bases loaded in the 8th down by one.

[Justified]

The Phillies went 9-25 from the start of June to the ASB, that is why they arent making the playoffs.
