What is the story about?

the Phillies need to win this series at home to make you start feeling any better about them? Most people I know that follow the team are somewhat “blah” about the start the team has gotten off too, not caring that it’s just the beginning of the year still. They just want to see wins. This would be the second of three series at home they would be the victors of, an important thing as the season goes along. Is it a must win?
On to the links.
Phillies news:
- Moving Alec Bohm to eighth in the lineup is supposed to help provide a spark to his bat. Hey, anything will help.
- Adolis Garcia is going to get the next crack at the cleanup spot ($) once the team faces a pitching staff with left handed relievers.
- According to these pitchers, they know what Zack Wheeler (and his lack of velocity) are going through in his rehab starts ($).
MLB news:
- Craig Kimbrel was called up by the Mets for some reason. Condolences to all Mets fans for what they’re about to endure.
- Tatsuya Imai is heading back to Houston to have his right arm examined, which he is calling “tired”. Seems ominous.
- Adley Rutschman is heading to the injured list with an ankle issue. He should only miss the requisite ten games.
