Our offense needs to learn how to continue to score throughout the game. We start out O.K. but we seem to just die beginning around the 6th inning just like last year. It seems people go home early.

wtf is up with Votto this year?

So far, again starting pitching gets it done. Our offense is able to put up some runs and we fall a part down at the end thanks to the bullpen. I really hope when it gets a bit warmer out they can generate some more runs.

DUnno but killing me in Fantasy baseball at this moment.

 

[Omar 382]

And another early lead

 

[Cedrique]

Morton is garbage

 

[Omar 382]

Not so fast

 

[Cedrique]

Entertain us Cedric Hunter!

 

[Omar 382]

Entertain us Cedric Hunter!

Congrats on the first home run Ced

 

[Omar 382]

Look how choked up on the bat Votto is. Holy shit

 

[BPNAZ]

lol, that was so predictable

 

[Retroram52]

Sometimes I wish we had the fireball-thrower Giles back. Sometimes.

 

[Retroram52]

Yep. True to the pattern. Early lead and then the offense will start to fade near the end.

 

[Omar 382]

Hunter has the yips

 

[Cedrique]

Daniel Stumpf is going to make the Phillies Great again

 

[Retroram52]

Giving up runs doesn't help either.

 

[Omar 382]

Seriously, look how choked up Votto is

 

[Retroram52]

What batting coach suggested this batting grip for Votto?

 

[Omar 382]

And thus the Brett Oberholtzer era begins

 

[Cedrique]

Fuck you Suarez! I thought I was going to win thousands of dollars in my daily fantasy game by putting in all Phillies and Reds. But being the stupid homer that I am I used Franco as my 3B.

I think that is a symptom of younger, (also not as good) teams. They don't have the experience to perform well against the specialist relievers they see later in the game. (Then again the Reds are a young team and they don't seem to have any problems lighting up the Phillies parade of bad relievers so who knows....)
