We all rag on Juilio and it's not always pretty but his ERA is now under 4 and his last 7 games is 2.64 with a WHIP of .9. His season batting average against is now at .198. If he could just cut down on the walks that would be awesome.

If he could just cut down on the walks that would be awesome. A couple of good things about Julio. 1-He's been durable 2-He's a competitor Imagine where he'd be without all the walks and homers. It's stressful as hell to watch him pitch though, and at my age I simply can't forgive him for that.  |

The problem with Julio is he's always pitching in high stress situations, and I always feel like every inning we're on the verge of it being a 6 run inning.

Bad news from New York! It's raining and it looks like deGrom being scratched because of a good chance of a postponement. A good chance for a Phillies loss will be missed if he doesn't pitch or even if the game is postponed. Chances are the Phils won't get deGrom in a make up.

Joel Sherman @joelsherman1 Corey Oswalt is starting in place of Jacob deGrom today #Mets DAMNNot only will the Phillies miss deGrom today but if he pitches tomorrow and and takes the normal 4 days rest he will also miss pitching against the Phillies in their three game series next week due to not pitching today. This is a seriously big decision that could affect the NL East standings by several games and may have a say, when all is said and done, in who wins the NL East! The Phillies missing the best pitcher in baseball twice while the Braves will most likely have to face him in the next to last series of the year. This is terrible BAD LUCK for the Braves! Needless to say his rotation day will fall in the Braves series opener after a Mets off day on 9/25 if he pitches every 5 days. Even if he takes an extra days rest or two he would still be schedule to pitch against the Braves on 9/26 or 9/27. All that being said if the Braves win 4 of 7 against the Phils it shouldn't matter but if they should slip up just a little this could wind up being huge. Here's to hoping that maybe they just skip his start and resume his normal schedule but I think that's unlikely. |
