02 · The vibe

How Philly felt about the Phillies, that day

The sole voice present is the beat_writer (Phillies Therapy), and the mood is one of honest, measured frustration at the 7-8 start rather than full despair.

What was working and what was not

-8
Middle-order offensive void
Spots 4-6 in the lineup posting a 557 OPS, 29th in MLB, with no clear right-handed run producer emerging after 15 games.
-7
Bohm patience wearing thin
Despite objectively worse numbers last April, hosts feel less patience this year; Bohm has yet to pull a single ball in the air and exit velo is down a full 3 mph.
-6
Aidan Miller injury opacity
Back issue shrouded in HIPAA deflections from Dombrowski; beat writer projects at least 6 weeks minimum and a very deliberate ramp-up even under best-case scenario.
+6
Pitching and young arms a genuine bright spot
Painter and Crawford both impressive in MLB debuts, bullpen striking out batters at a high clip, and staff walk rate is excellent — a credible reason for optimism.
-5
Left field platoon feels like a missed offseason opportunity
Otto Kemp striking out in half his plate appearances and a defensive liability; hosts wish the front office had targeted a stronger right-handed platoon option.
06 · In the air

Hot takes from fans, journalists, and loudmouths

*As read by Phan-o-meter
These last two weeks of Alec Bohm are not major league caliber.
Podcastscore 15
Seven out of fifteen games have been one-run games. Half their games already this year have been one-run games.
Podcastscore 28
Andrew Painter is the lowest walk rate among all their starters. He looks like a massive win.
Podcastscore 80
I want to be proven wrong. I want to have opinions that look stupid if they're in the negative later on.
Podcastscore 42
Gelb and co-host run a concern-o-meter on a 7-8 team, flagging lineup depth, Bohm, left field platoon, and Aidan Miller's murky injury status as real worries while finding silver linings in pitching and Harper.
