I dont blame gabe. The team just makes so many stupid mistakes. Like I don't think I'd be terribly upset if every fielder was different next season at this point. jesus.

I give him credit for the wins and blame for the losses. He made questionable decisions this game. Not having a pure closer has cost this team multiple wins and its his decision to run the bullpen that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick is bad in right, Rhys is bad in left, Franco is bad at third, Kingery is good at SS, Hernandez is above average at 2nd, and Santana is good at first, we just saw the negative tonight of him having a cannon at first. Ramos and Alfaro are both usually very good. Alfaro has especially made strides this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having a pure closer has cost this team multiple wins and its his decision to run the bullpen that way How does not having a pure closer cost a team wins? He brought in his best pitcher to get the outs needed, and Neshek failed. That's Gabe's fault? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaving Hunter out there who has been shaky all year gives you a strong inning and you push the limit. Now you have to bring you best pitcher in already at a disadvantage. Instead of giving him a fresh inning. The league has closers for a reason. Its easy to say the guys should just get guys out but part of being a Manager is putting your guys in the best position to win. Baseball players are creatures of habit. Roles. Consistency. Any other manager would have Neshek as the setup man and Seranthony as the closer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyguy1609 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 should have atleast split the double header against the Nats. I saw a reporter for the phils(maybe The Athletic) said Santana looks good at 3rd in his limited time there so maybe try him there next yr and bring Hoskins back to 1st.

Hope we see JP get everyday at bats the rest of the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danger Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 The Phillies aren't a terrible team, but for whatever reason. I really just don't like this team. I genuinely loathe them. They make me angry. They find ways to lose. If I'm being honest, they aren't as good as their record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken mentions the phillies could look a lot different next year and honestly I think that's the right approach. Not sure Klentak is the guy to do it though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good those are the exact two players I were hoping they'd say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mm6492 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 We have pieces to make some interesting moves, not sure I trust Klentak to do it at all. I don't mind Santana but would hope we would at least explore if anyone would want him. Moving Hoskins to 1st base will really help this team out and get players into better positions defensively.
