He's sure intense, he always looks like he stepped in dog poop. I keep thinking he'd make about 100 million more over his career if he laughed once in a while like he's having a good time.
Bryce took a hit to the funnybone and all is good.
That's just his game face. He got a little choked up the night before in an interview talking about Philly and the fan base. He really does love it here.
Holy Crap! The Phillies are on a tear!! Have you watched any of their games? they are intense
All of them, more or less, so far.
Any word on Bryce this morning?

So my "less interested" better half asked this morning... "were they doing the tomahawk chop again last night" (having seen game 3)... I informed her that we didn't really have an opportunity to taunt the Braves...it was a bit closer last night. Her response: "Good...I hate that chant".
I will confess that I did not like the Castellanos (who lives nearby) signing... but he has proven me wrong most of this year. I hope he continues to do so for another few weeks.
Castellanos ilves about 10 miles from us. He bought Ben Simmon's place in Rancocoas. Personally, for 4 mil, he could have done better in the area.
I hate the Chop as well. but it was pretty funny to see it turned on them. The chant came out a little bit toward the end of the game last night.
I was in bed watching the game. more listening then watching. when I heard Bryce is hurt my eyes flew open!
Castellanos is awesome! "We thrive after we get punched in the face, man." is the Phillies quote of the year.
and the crowd taunting with the tomahawk chop is priceless.

I don't have a problem with the current system....
So looking at "where we are"... it's officially nuts.
I don't think you can change it much...unless you want to make the first round 1 game. That could be done on Tuesday, and you start the second round the next day. The winners would not have their pitchers "set up"...which would be a huge advantage to those with a buy. If that were to happen, you'd have the 3rd place division winner upset that they only got 1 game (if they lost)...but they did come in 3rd (at least).
Teams that won over 90 games during the regular season were a combined 1-13 in the postseason. The Braves are the only team to win a game.
The AL East had 3 teams in playoffs. The last team in the division to win a game this season was the Boston Red Sox...who won their final game on Oct. 1 against Baltimore.
90-72. That's the sweet spot. The Phillies, Astros, and Rangers all finished with that record. The Dbacks were 6 games worse, which can only mean they are in the driver's seat. They lost 4 in a row at the end of the season to get the last spot by 1 over the Cubs... and haven't lost since.
Intense? Castellanos looked (and sounded) like he wanted to punch someone in the post-game interview.
I will confess that when Bryce got hit in the (surgically repaired ACL) arm... there were a few mins of concern.
