The Philadelphia Phillies are 24-50- an astoundingly bad record at this stage. They are on 52 win pace, and really have nothing to be excited about. Their pitching? Bad. The line-up? Bad. Relievers? Pathetic. Bench? Not so good. This team is just plain bad, by any standard we apply. Today they get to face Zack Greinke as well, so expect another loss (though Nick Pivetta did just beat Chris Sale).
In a couple weeks, someone from the Philadelphia Phillies will be named to the National League All-Star team. That's a travesty. This team is on 110 loss pace, and their best two players so far (Howie Kendrick and Cesar Hernandez) have been hurt as much as they've played. If there was ever a good argument to eliminate the requirement for every team to get an All-Star, this one is it.
