Kyle Schwarber has been on an absolute tear. Over his last three games, he’s batting .500 (5-for-10) with 3 home runs, 4 RBI, 5 runs scored, 3 walks, and a 2.015 OPS. He has 43 home runs this season, which leads all of MLB. He’s doing stuff at the plate that I’ve never seen before […]

The Braves wrapped up by far their most pivotal series of the season on Monday afternoon with a disappointing 1-0 loss that was perfectly pitched by both sides and ultimately decided by one swing of the bat late in the game. Braves Hold Serve That was basically the story of the entire series. It was […]
The Braves’ decision to move Bryce Elder to the bullpen despite a lingering knee issue is questioned, with an IL stint seen as the more logical move given roster constraints and Elder’s lack of relief experience. The episode also breaks down how Atlanta can exploit Philadelphia’s vulnerable bullpen by avoiding early-count outs and chasing below the zone. Finally, it previews a tough three-game set vs the AL-leading Rays, focusing on key matchups, Tampa’s righty-mashing lineup, and Atlanta’s ne...

Yeah, I could’ve phrased this as a question and had the same post body anyway, but why bother when I can just make a post? After the Braves split their big series on the road against the Phillies, I have three big picture thoughts, two of which were prompted by their dramatic comeback win in Game Three. Why is everyone, including Ronald Acuña Jr., obsessed with going the other way? In this series, the Braves’ most common ball in play was a grounder up the middle, followed by a ball in the air ...

The first four games of this pivotal stretch for the Phillies against the Atlanta Braves are over. It didn’t go quite the way Philadelphia could’ve hoped, as they were only able to split the series. They are now still four games behind the Braves with three games in Atlanta coming next weekend and 18 games […]
It was just not meant to be on Monday for the Braves. Kyle Schwarber once again went deep for the only run in the game, but the story was the dominance of Jesus Luzardo during his complete game shutout against the Braves in a 1-0 win for the Phillies. Grant Holmes was outstanding once again, […]
And now, the Astros come to town. This is actually going to be an important series as it’s one of those that the Phillies really should be winning.

The Philadelphia Phillies looked buried before the season had even reached May. After stumbling to a 9-19 start and becoming one of the worst teams in the National League, Philadelphia fired Rob Thomson and handed the team to Don Mattingly.

The top of the National League East played itself to a stalemate this holiday weekend in Philadelphia, as the visiting Atlanta Braves and the hosting Phillies split a four-game set, two wins apiece. It was a captivating showdown between familiar rivals, one packed with impressive performances and knife’s edge moments. But in the end, Walt Weiss’ Braves left the Citizens Bank Park thunderdome with the same four-game division lead with which they arrived. Much happened — and little, too. At this...

The Braves split a four-game series in Philadelphia, outscoring the Phillies 12–11 and maintaining a four-game NL East lead with 18 games left while securing the season tiebreaker (7–3). Atlanta’s run prevention impressed—Sale and Mahle looked like postseason starters, the bullpen was largely strong, and Holmes showed high ceiling with scary contact. Offensively, the Braves were overly dependent on Ronald Acuña Jr., who went 7-for-15 with two homers and six RBI while the rest of the lineup hit...
Four down, three to go. The Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies have now played four of the seven games they’ve got scheduled against each other here in September and so far, the Braves can at least rest easy knowing that they held serve in the division. Sure, it would’ve been great to see the Braves win the series or even sweep it but being realistic, a road split was a decent result and as we always say, “you always take a four-game split on the road.” So, how did Atlanta go about earni...
Ronald Acuña Jr. and the Phillies brought the drama this weekend, while an umpire somehow found himself at the center of controversy after confronting a pitcher making his MLB debut.

When the Phillies needed somebody to right the ship, Jesus Luzardo was there. I guess you could really say that about the entire season.
