Are The Philadelphia Phillies Quietly Sneaking In Under Everyone's Radar?

Dom Brown = Babe Ruth

[dlunc3]

Brown's hitting HRs because teams have no reason NOT to pitch to him.

wonder when they will start trying against him? 3rd hr in 3 games and 4th in the last 5...

[dlunc3]

Did you just quote yourself?

Huh?

I think you need to check that Phillies lineup again.

Michael Young, Jimmy Rollins, Ryan Howard, Ben Revere, John Mayberry Jr all have higher batting averages and OBP higher than Brown.

Downtown Dom Brown! This thread is great

[dlunc3]

....

You watching this kid hit? Unreal run...

[billysink]

Brown with a way too long swing against righties. When he shortens his stroke same length as against lefties he will be a real good hitter. The longer he plays the better he will read pickoffs and use his speed.

Lot of upside.

What he said.

[dlunc3]

Come on out Sam.. Time for another one of your updates

[InTheDrink]

sell high

trade domonic now

[pavyracer]

They are not sneaking under any radar.

[SamDiamond]

What the hell.

Let's review this one.

Dominic Brown. The legend. The "5-tool player" that PhillyFlyers guaranteed for us was about to blossom.

Brown is batting .210

He has 3 HRs.

If you go back to the all-star break in 2013, Brown is batting .229 with 7 HRs.

The Phillies are on 'Fade-dar'. Tough team to watch.

Props to Utley at least... raking at .335 in his 12th MLB season. Homers are gone though, Utley must have been on the roids when he was cracking 30+ a year.

either that, or he was 28 years old not 35

[Down_Goes Bookie]

Utley's HR output dropped roughly by half in 2010 when he was 31 yoa and has stayed about there since then. Before that he had averaged nearly 30 HRs for five seasons straight. Maybe age, maybe not, probably never know. Helluva ballplayer either way.
