Was just checking the division standings though and the Guardians are actually good this year? 32-17 and winners of 5 straight.
There's a guy from Philly, El Hombre that has a weekly appearance on Seattle Sports radio. He was on last night and was rightfully pumped about the Phils

I need to dig into my closet. I know somewhere is a thick dust coated Bobby Abreu shirt-jersey back there somewhere.

What's going on with your Mets, KUB?

It has been the core of the team that has been awful, Alonso-Lindor-McNeil-Marte, with Alvarez out and no serious backup catcher. Too much awful play from "stars" to overcome. The work Stearns did this past off season was mostly great but no one can overcome all of their expected big contributors except for Nimmo shitting the bed.

Lindor will be fine but Marte and McNeil are probably washed permanently and Pete will not age gracefully, I hope they don't re-sign him for more than 120m

Most teams will print a 'first game certificate ' for you. You should check the website or ask fan services at the game. Enjoy it

Braves 1-hit and now 9-11 in their last 20 games while PHI runs away with the division lol. Austin Riley is even worse than Jeff McNeil

Question for phuture, when if ever does the 'always sunny' cast dicking around Philly sports teams get old? For me it got old after about a week and we're about 15 years in



Do Philly fans really enjoy this? Reminds me of Bill Murray overstaying his welcome around the Cubs or Spike Lee and the Knicks

It was cool when they first did it but now it's almost a parody. Also, from what I can tell, that show should have ended but it's still on air.

Sly is allowed to do so in perpetuity because Rocky is the greatest work of art ever created in any medium. Period.

Hope not but probably. Then again Soto is clearly going to the high bidder and Steinbrenner has been very vocal about not going to the top tier of the sport in terms of payroll.
