Rambling Phillies posts with doses of other sports and movie takes
A supposed historically great team losing to “Wisconsin” at home meanwhile the actual best team in the country is just chugging along with casual dominance.

I’ve been on record as saying I think a long term Bichette deal is going to age badly, he’s already seen a decline in athleticism and he’s very much a free swinger. But I think if the Phillies sign him it’s probably not a deal in the 7+ year range was expected to receive.

The idea that Willson Contreras has *negative trade value* because of his contract is belied by the fact that *an MLB team just traded for him and his contract*.

I’m sorry, but while I won’t argue Contreras is a great asset, the idea he has *negative* value is just stupid, as seen by the trade!

Arizona and Michigan are the two best teams in the country and I’m not sure it is close at the moment.

They really are about to sweep all 6 of their high level noncon games. This team is ridiculous

I’m afraid it might be The Year

Schwarber is a ++ swing decision guy with elite bat speed. So elite that he has room for decline in that category later into his 30s while still being productive in the ISO/SLG department. He’s actually become a more complete hitter the last two seasons.

My thoughts on that football game are:

The Arizona Wildcats are #1 in America

You can talk about the death of the Kansas City Chiefs all you want but just know that their demise occurred in February of this year.

I haven’t felt this way about an Arizona team since my freshman year when they started 21-0. It’s an exhilarating and also frightening feeling.

I need a film nerd who is much smarter about basketball than me to do a breakdown thread on every second half possession Awaka had on Clark and Dent. Just unbelievable effort from him

Maybe loser Michael Walter Cronin should learn this rivalry needs to always be played on campus

Jaden Bradley played like shit for 30 minutes but shook it right off and brought the game home when the team needed it most. Leader. My point guard

I’ve never been more back. BEAR THE FUCK DOWN

The Eagles have the most star studded offense in the league and it’s amazing what happens when you actually dial up shot plays for said fucking stars.

Patullo is the worst coordinator that we have had on either side of the ball since Juan Castillo. Every third and long run to a back up running back makes me fucking snap

The groans from the freezing Lambeau crowd when the Eagles line up for the first tush push tonight will cleanse my soul.

Sadly i must admit i am ready for Arizona basketball to ruin my life again

First responders in Canada are going to be stretched thin across the country after those last two swings

Imagine watching this and thinking “yeah I wish this was over 2 innings ago on a bunt and sac fly.” Ghost runner and it’s defenders should be banished from society

I like that we have no idea yet how this is gonna end, but it's already one of the greatest non-deciding World Series games ever by acclamation.

The Phillies only swung at 8 of 25 Yamamoto curveballs and cutters. They whiffed at zero.

Aaron “The Opener” Nola hit 95 mph multiple times tonight

They tried to take a “hall of fame” starter and convert him to a reliever. I guess the “conversion therapy” didn’t work on that sick freak!!
