Obviously, today is a must win for the Phillies. Taking three straight from the Dodgers feels nigh impossible at this point. Blake Snell is on the mound and while the task is tall, there should be some
confidence that the team will bounce back. They have played well at home and know they are up against the wall.
Let’s hope for a better outcome.
On to the links.
Phillies news:
- Harrison Bader’s MRI came back clean, so the chances of his making it back in time for today’s game are improving.
- Is Citizens Bank Park no longer the invincible fortress it once was for playoff teams? It’s starting to look like it ($). Personally, I blame the players.
MLB news:
- As of now, the status for whether or not Jackson Chourio can play today in Game 2 is still up in the air for the Brewers.
- The Red Sox had planned to hire a general manager this offseason, but their best choice took the top job in Washington.
- Looks like Buster Posey is considering a friend of his as the next manager of the Giants.
- Atlanta is also looking for a new manager to take over their operation, according to Alex Anthopoulos. This should be the top choice for candidates.
