It seems that they only win games when they get the early lead. When they go down by 3 or more early they somehow give up and forget how to hit? Am I crazy or anyone else seeing this? I don't recall a single Phils comeback win, at least a notable one (like down 3 or more).
yea i watch every game and seems to be a trend when down the first two innings by a few.. but tonight fish had to redeem themselves and blanton downplayed them. theyl win tomorrow but im a little skeptical for sundays moyer vs johnson matchup
The Phillies are 3-6 in their last 9 games and Fla gained confidence with the road win last night. The Fish also have the pitching advantage in the next two games, especially game 3 with Johnson on the hill.
Contrarian note: I'm chasing the Phillies for two games on Saturday and Sunday. They won't get swept at home by the Marlins, come hell or high water. I think everyone's bats wake up on Saturday, so I like the over, too.
CK disagrees, by the way. He says chase the Fish until they win two in this series.
Phills have all of the components (except a closer) to be a world series competitor once again IMO. We're seeing a slump at the moment. They need the rest down the stretch, but a little extra divisional competition should spur them back into winning ways at some point. A rebound is just around the corner, I think.
Yeah being a Phils fan and taking them last night makes it frustrating guessing if their bats will show up. Watch they prob put up 8 or 9 tonight. Oh and speaking of the Nats they cost me $$$ the last two nights. Nothing like your team jumping out big early and watch the worst team in baseball pick your pocket.
yoo razz good point, they need another closer. they will rebound today with a w but damn tho, fav at 225, i think if you wanted to play this game id prob go with the over..
