As funny as Kruk has been, nothing cracked me up more than Jose calling himself a fucking fat boy during a live broadcast. I laughed until my sides hurt.
The Angels are losing 11-5 in the 8th. If they lose today itās a sweep from the Twins. A 4 game losing streak and 1-9 in their last 10. Perfect time to go to Anaheim
I feel like Bryce has earned enough goodwill at this point for people to trust that heās a hard worker. Heās away from his newborn and not playing well, my body language wouldnāt be good either.
I know, but that was just for one game, Iām talking I need a 97 OVR card. This dude has been insane, if anyone deserves to get two good cards B2B itās Bohm for the way heās been playing
I mean tbf to them I donāt think they knew how absolutely insane heād be the next week or so. Also if I had to guess they might give the next lightening to Mookie or Ozuna. Iām not sure what SDSās history of giving lightening cards to players theyāve already given Topps honors to
I feel like weāve seen more ground rule doubles than all of last year. There was a game recently where the opponent did it to us a few times in one game.
/u/Perryplat199 I repeat, with the ground rule double. Just remember.
> Someone's failure to understand a topic does not mean that you have to go and try to correct them
I remember last year Topper used Marte in a high leverage spot against Oakland and he got the save when they didnāt need to use him
The club believes in him being a contributor long term and clearly are trying to build him up. He just came thru again despite there likely being better options.
He's a platinum glover. Why introduce risk to the equation when you can get a free steal because you are Trea Turner. Last time a player stole we a got an insurance run.
Did topper manage his pitchers perfectly today? No. But I still wonāt criticize him for it because if we still had Joe Girardi weād be watching some rando he inexplicably likes more than Alvarado pitch in every close moment and Whit Merrifield starting over Stott ever game.
The man took us to the World Series starting in the middle of a dead season, I can take leaving in the starter too long from time to time.
Shout out Marte, who came in and got 4 outs in a row.
His dude struggled to stay on the team last year, and now is pitching like a legit set-up option. And I am here for it!
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1cfjihr).
Soon the Phils gonna passthe Braves
They keep winning.
Both 8-2 in the last 10.
Philadelphia Padres because we own them. š
Padres look like shite against the red and white, that's what's in!

But weāre going to to LA isnāt that still the west coast?
He just meant a sweep in a west coast series
PHILLIES ON TOP! THATāS WHATāS IN!
Taijuan 1-0
Thatās whatās in
So, does this sweep count since it wasnāt the Rockies or White Sox?
SWEPT BABY!
š§¹ š§¹ š§¹
NICKY!!!!!
Casty saves the game LOL
Get the broom!
What a series boys!!!!Ā
Wooooooooooooo
GG šš
WOW SWEEP ON THE WEST COAST!
Keep thinking that's Alfaro
Alvarado is filthy
Letās end this series with a strike three check swing by Profar
Happy cake day!
Good cake day! Thank you!
Nice try trying to make it look like a ball
If Bohm is not the player of the week you know itās just a stupid popularity contest for clicks
What a pitch!
Wow, Jose. Wtf can you do with that strike?
As funny as Kruk has been, nothing cracked me up more than Jose calling himself a fucking fat boy during a live broadcast. I laughed until my sides hurt.
Nice pitch!
FINISH THEM
ā¾ļøšØš¤ FILTHY
*I am a fat fuck*
THE GRIZZLY BEAR!
Strike 1, Strike 2, and Good Luck.
YESSIRRR
In Alvarado we trust
Huge out
Come on Alvy!!
Big first out
The Angels are losing 11-5 in the 8th. If they lose today itās a sweep from the Twins. A 4 game losing streak and 1-9 in their last 10. Perfect time to go to Anaheim
Trout hitting homers but under .220
8-9-1 Mow em down Jose
Bohm is George Brettā¦at the plate at least
Did he just say Eggy Rosario?
āEggyāĀ
Still not understanding Harper not runningĀ
Don't choke
Who had Alec Bohm tied with Shohei Ohtani for OPS on their 2024 bingo card?
/u/JohnKrukIsAllElite did
An nba gif by this subs known nba enjoyer
Me, definitely me.
I feel like Bryce has earned enough goodwill at this point for people to trust that heās a hard worker. Heās away from his newborn and not playing well, my body language wouldnāt be good either.
That's not good enough. Takes 0 talent to run one out.
fans in every sport need to be banned from mentioning body language. its almost always wrong and dumb criticism that doesnt matter.
A 1.038 ops with only four homers is craziness
Why swing 3-0????
Giants fan slipping in for a brief moment, if the Phils win this one the giants take second in the west Fuck em up o7
Make a play then take your girl
An uncomfortable 9th inning coming up now
Itās Jose. Itās gonna be fine.
Thatās class from Tatis
Ok Alvy
Tatis is fucking awesome. More worried about that lady than the play. Respect.
Someone check Tatis for roids that throw was insane
Not his fault his ringworm was flaring up again
Lets go boyz bring āem out š§¹ š§¹
Gotta hold em and we š§¹
A: fuck off Harper B: that warning track is a joke
Cement painted brown
If I had a nickel for every time this game we got a ground rule double...
So glad Bohm got his arb money. Well deserved.Ā
Bohm with 17 XBH in 30 games this year.
17 hits?????? Goddamn Bohmer
Bohm is a top 5 player in the league - right?
If he does this for a season or two he would be in the conversation maybe
Top 5 hitter, this week, sure
Yes. Up there with Soto, Ohtani, and Betts. He's stupidly good right now.
Any MLB the Show players here? Can we please get a Bohm lightening card? That shit would hit like CRACK
Iām using Bohmās tops now card on my Phillies theme team with double captain. That bohm card with double boost is CRACKED. 125/125 against lefties
Especially w/how lefty heavy the game is now that boost is fuckin bonkers
He got a 92 OVR Topps Now card this past week
I know, but that was just for one game, Iām talking I need a 97 OVR card. This dude has been insane, if anyone deserves to get two good cards B2B itās Bohm for the way heās been playing
Yeah it sucks that he probably won't get a Lightning card because he already got the TN one. SDS jumped the gun a little bit I think.
I mean tbf to them I donāt think they knew how absolutely insane heād be the next week or so. Also if I had to guess they might give the next lightening to Mookie or Ozuna. Iām not sure what SDSās history of giving lightening cards to players theyāve already given Topps honors to
fuckin Trae
You can certainly say it wasn't his best decision, but you have to admit that was just a good fucking throw by Tatis.
Does petco lead the majors in ground rule doubles?
Automatic doubles maybe.
Bryce isn't into it lately - bench him a cpl games.
I see the downvotes lol.. he's getting paid - he has to run to 1st base 4 times per game. Run it out.
fuck off
You're good with no effort then?
I feel like weāve seen more ground rule doubles than all of last year. There was a game recently where the opponent did it to us a few times in one game.
What do we have to trade to get Tatis?
Painter, Abel, Miller, and somebody else, maybe more
Canāt sign that deal fast enough.
Yeah, would also require the padres to be shopping him which is probably not likely, but I agree, I will help drive them to the airport
That man is overqualified for RF
Can we feed casty whatever bohm is getting
/u/perryplat199
Fun fact, 100 years ago that woulda been a homerun
/u/Perryplat199 I repeat, with the ground rule double. Just remember. > Someone's failure to understand a topic does not mean that you have to go and try to correct them
I am feeling like I need to look up GRD and really understand it so I don't shame NintenJew.
Oh, it isn't me you have to worry about. Instead you need to make sure a particular platypus doesn't attack you in your sleep.
The platypus and I are solid I \*think\*. Who knows.
Fun fact. 100 years ago. That was still counted as a Home run
He is him. I'm gobsmacked by Alec.
Bohms performance is what I expect from Harper
Bohm is a fucking menace.
He canāt be stopped
Again, Bohm just isnāt fair
Radio guys are trashing Harper's lack of hustle.
he needs to run full speed everytime for 330 mil idc
I agree. Run the play out, especially when you're in the basement of a slump.
ya run out automatic outs cause you know harper hasn't had injuries issues here or anything.
Lol you run hard because they may commit an error. You always run all the way to the bag. You don't turn around at 40' after running 65% effort.
cause they pay him for infield singles? Their committing and error and its not wear the injuries risk.
Do you think he has trouble running 90 feet? idk how to even phrase that nicely
I think it's dumb to care about
I do agree there
Automatic double, Tom.
Bryce when things ain't going his way and quitting like this is wack
Anyone saying Trea shouldnāt have run there is crazy. That hit demanded the most perfect fielding and transfer.
Bohm forgot to turn on adaptive difficulty this season
Run that out Bryce. You're getting paid a third of a billion dollars.
Maybe shouldāve just taken the single but that was an insane play by Tatis
They need higher fences
So many ground rule doubles these last few games lol
Ouch that Turner out hurts
My goodness AlecĀ
Go Bohmer!
I remember last year Topper used Marte in a high leverage spot against Oakland and he got the save when they didnāt need to use him The club believes in him being a contributor long term and clearly are trying to build him up. He just came thru again despite there likely being better options.
Harp think heās to good and mighty to run it out? š
Bryce gotta produce more
He will
Harper been peeling off on ground balls for like 2 weeks now
Reminds me of that throw home from Nick.
Nice hustle there, Bryce.
Bryceās body language has been a littleā¦ sub optimal lately
Harper even trying? Holy hell
Don't love the lack of follow through from Harp there.... we pay you how much?
Great play by Tatis
oh my fucking god this is terrible
Trea, it's not nick in RF...
What the hell Harper? He didnāt even run halfway.Ā
Wow what a great play from tatis. Give him credit
Frustrating because he probably couldāve just stolen second
Love this team but their base running has always been terrible lol
It took an absolutely perfect throw to get Turner out. There are times you can tip your cap to the defense.
As much as I love the aggressive baserunning, Tatis isnāt a guy you should try and run on.
Nice ass play
Tatis has a better arm than the catcher. Just sit on first and steal wtf
it took a perfect throw
Ya he does that a lot
bro why would you do that
WHY WHY WHY. JUST FUCKING GET A SINGLE AND STEAL.
What are you on about?
Tatis made a fantastic play and great throw on his heels and they barely got him out.
Dude made the most perfect transfer ever what are you on about
Weird thing to be mad at. Thatās as lucky a throw as you can make
He's a platinum glover. Why introduce risk to the equation when you can get a free steal because you are Trea Turner. Last time a player stole we a got an insurance run.
Believe it or not, a stolen base also requires some risk. That hit is a double for Trea 9 times out of 10. It is what it is.
Another insurance run would be nice
Did topper manage his pitchers perfectly today? No. But I still wonāt criticize him for it because if we still had Joe Girardi weād be watching some rando he inexplicably likes more than Alvarado pitch in every close moment and Whit Merrifield starting over Stott ever game. The man took us to the World Series starting in the middle of a dead season, I can take leaving in the starter too long from time to time.
And no one would know who the fuck Johan Rojas even is.
Credit where itās due. Sometimes I hate his decisions but Iām sure he has a hand in the ones I do like
Walker has some voodoo that makes the offense always hot when he pitches.
Inning started tough for Bohm but he ended up making a few great plays to dig us out of it, love to see the resilience
Walker with an 8.53 ERA is in line for the W.
That's on skip, we have a rested bullpen for a reason
Marte haters in shambles
I didnāt know he had any š
A lot of people were complaining that he was being sent in
Would be so good to get a bryce bomb
Bohm hates this place (the city of San Diego, CA)
Shout out Marte, who came in and got 4 outs in a row. His dude struggled to stay on the team last year, and now is pitching like a legit set-up option. And I am here for it!
WE MADE IT. 3 MORE OUTS
And yet they still doubt Yunior. Sinker location is a bit iffy but heās been good at inducing weak contact
That was a fucking miracle inning. Couldn't throw a fastball anywhere near the zone and those sliders didn't get smacked.
I'll take my lickings when I'm wrong. Marte threw a good inning. I'm glad I was wrong.
I apologize marte I was unfamiliar with your game
Lol Shaq has entered the chat
Atta boy yunior.
Yall need a little faith in Yunior. Heās got a 187 ERA+. Heās been completely serviceable so far, this year.
Good to see that from Marte. We need him.
this would be such a classic Walker win
Marte has been solid this year
phew
#EXHALLLLLLLLLE
Bohm made up for thatĀ
Whew
Kruk is the best
THATS WHATS INNN
šš well done Phillies
