Need a good start out of Bieber so we can trade him

Seymour supposed to be used in bulk relief. 

Casey Lasagna opening the game today.

Would be huge if Bieber can pitch 6 to 7 innings and allowing a max 1-2 earned runs with some K's. 

We need Gausman and Bieber to showcase themselves to other teams.

It seems watching the call ups from Buffalo out performing the veterans is the only bright spot this season.....Love to see the dead weight gone soon.

Don Mattingly is 47-27 since taking over as manager for the Phillies, they were ten games under prior.. Our management is f***ing clueless and only wants "yes men" as manager. Maybe bring back Charlie Montoya, lol.

It is wild.  I don't think anyone here thought Donny Baseball was good at anything.

You also have no idea if Donny is a yes man or not. He is working for his son now.  You think he's consistently pushing back and going against what he wants?  Unlikely

It's not even that, it's the presence of a manager who's been there and done that. JS brings nothing of the sort to the table, same goes for Popkins.

Don Mattingly has never won anything in his life lol. He was embarrassed out of town with the Dodgers and Marlins, and yes now that he gets to be a reverse nepo baby in Philly he was the winning force behind the 2025 Blue Jays all along, lol.

Straw makes a catch that Varsho could not.

[G-Snarls]

I don't watch the games anymore 

Just check the score occasionally 

Bieber boosting his trade value hopefully?

I'm with Org on this one.  I think most of your feelings that Donny has "been there and done that" and thus that makes him much better than managers who didn't play in the big league, or who have less experienced is an extremely flawed view.

I won't discredit what Donny and the Phillies have done since he arrived, but there's often no justification for it.  To suggest Donny is some miracle manager just doesn't seem believable.  I keep saying this, but baseball is full of unpredictable and unexplainable swings - often with a lot of luck involved.  People may not like hearing that, but I think it's true.  I hope Donny is enjoying all of this - it must be a ton of fun with his son being the GM.

Would be nice to see Bieber get a couple more K's on that pitching line.

I can't make it through full games recently.
