Need about 4 more runs, Phillies. No napping.

Sigh #Phillies

They're gonna actually *need* Duran today, aren't they

Quibble: It would have been better for Sanchez to be more efficient today, given -- waves hand at yesterday. They needed 7.

Wish they gave Schwarber a night off to just clear his head, or rest, or whatever.

Backyard overrun by baby skunks, so all is good and mellow

Hopefully there's good health status reports tomorrow. Schwarber should get tomorrow off. Get De La Cruz back into the lineup. Need 7 strong from Sanchez, for sure.

Phillies were back in the green on run differential, at +4, for one whole day. Will be back to negative.

This game has now fully flipped to horror mode

Let's go. Get this back tied, at minimum, Phillies.

Walk-off home run time, Phillies. Let's go.

Weather now says 91% chance (not 90%, please understand) that we get 0.40 inches of heavy rain starting at 9 p.m. Most of our desert forecasts are wrong, so I'm not holding my breath.

Would have liked a little more killer instinct from offense today versus a guy they can hit, but I guess that's par for the Phillies season.

Really impressive rebound by Painter tonight after starting the game with 1st-and-3rd and no outs. Didn't wilt.

Is today designed to renew some Phillies angst that we deluded ourselves into thinking was resolved was by one good start. Let's find out!

I still don't understand why the Nationals traded Luis Garcia.

Schwarber last 5 games: 0-for-14 6 walks 8 strikeouts

Luzardo when he's in the zone is a Top 10 pitcher in MLB

It's going to be interesting to see what the Phillies do when Marchan is ready to return. Really no one on the roster who can/should be sent down. I suspect they'll try to drag it out until roster expansion on Sept. 1, then do 3 catchers again.

Weirdly, the new Phillies lineup could lead to *more* men on base for Bohm.
