Unknøwn Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Well, its incredibly hard to believe but the final series of the regular season is here. Let's rest up, finish the year feeling good and turn all attention to Game 1 of the NLDS. Friday, 7:10 Keuchel vs Stroman Saturday, 7:15 Folty vs Matz Sunday, 3:10 Soroka vs Syndergaard E.

TheTrue7 Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Screw that.. sweep gets us to 100! /purp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tl;dr Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Surprised Soroka is going Sunday, but if the plan is for him to go in game 3, then it makes since. Honestly, he could go in game 2 and be fine. Seems like Keuchel, Folty, Soroka is our 3 man rotation right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknøwn Posted September 27, 2019 Author Share Posted September 27, 2019 Remember Game 1 is also Thursday. Game 2 would be normal rest for him. Still expect game 3 though. Keuchel, Folty and Soroka all get extra rest before the NLDS with this setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if he isn't going game 1, you should throw him out in game 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I guess a part of me still thought he would go 1st. But I like the rotation we have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E. T. Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 I'm already in playoff mode. I'd like to hit 100, but I also would like to see us play a little conservative too. If it happens, it happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknøwn Posted September 27, 2019 Author Share Posted September 27, 2019 The loss of Kranitz is being blamed for a major part of why the Phillies collapsed this year. Kapler wanted to change the program and culture for the pitching so he removed Kranitz. Multiple team sources told the Philly beat writer this was a huge blow to the development the Philly staff had achieved last year. The results reflected that this season. Meanwhile, Kranitz has developed Fried and Soroka into top of the rotation arms for the Phillies division rival.

ATLBrave Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Hopefully it's just precautionary, but Hechavarria is currently taking groundballs at 1B. Falconsfan567 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknøwn Posted September 27, 2019 Author Share Posted September 27, 2019 We need versatility. Riley probably isn't making the roster. We need someone besides Cervelli that can cover 1B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
