Why would we have hopefully the 8th and 9th best hitters on the the team batting 1st and 2nd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuliusO1274 Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 (edited) Lopez seems to be throwing harder. Fastball has been consistently 97+. Edit- Well he was the first 2 innings. Edited August 4, 2019 by JuliusO1274 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 If I were a Phillies fan I'd be losing my shit over this series. Kapler, bad baserunning, not scoring vs. Detwiler, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moncada looked awful in 2018 too. He'll be ok. The talent is still there. Eloy was starting to get it going before he got hurt. Now he's starting from a completely different point. 2019 looks like an adjustment season for Eloy. Hahn and Kenny should be taking notes (wink wink) Edited August 4, 2019 by Jack Parkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not missing a ton of bats today but lots of weak contact. Both are effective. I'd say he looks ok. Edited August 4, 2019 by Jack Parkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Smyly didn't throw a single pitch in the zone to Tim that AB. The 3-2 pitch was debatable and Timmy fouled it off but it was very similar to a previous pitch that was called a ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
