Do you think the Phillies can win the NL wild card?

I'll tell you how I think the Phillies will blow there chance at winning it.

It seems like every year this team is loaded with talent, but always choke at crunch time. This year is no different IMO.

The Phillies are only out of the wild card by 2 games, and play 7 games against Washington to finish the year. Somehow you just know that they will probably have a 4 or 5 game losing streak about 2 weeks before the regular season is over (probably against Washington), and completely blow any chance of winning that wild card.

blowing an 8-2 lead vs Braves just killed them..they can't lose to teams like FLA either...they need to get another top starting pitcher...they've got the offense...pitching is holding them back...if they still had Wagner as their closer that would have been better as well

[bigboydan]

Thats what I mean WestsidePete. They always seem to choke when it comes right down to it.

[stump]

no shot, the bullpen is terrible, as seen in the Atlanta game. starting pitching is spotty, and i still don't think this team has the heart to win under pressure

[Illusion]

The wildcard is a complete crapshoot imo. My darkhorse is the Colorado Rockies.

[WestsidePete]

if the dodgers sweep the padres all hell can break loose and a bunch of teams will have a chance...

[bigboydan]

I can't believe the Phillies came back to win that game tonight.
