7/5/2015 - Phillies 28 & 56

Looks like "the Fightins" could/will set a new Phillies record for losses in a 162 game season.
At least it (probably) won't be a franchise record .

Currently 29 & 62.
Can this team avoid a 100 losses this season ?
If they play all 162 games , they would have to go 34 and 37 the rest of the way.
Being a follower of the Phillies , I don't think it's going to happen .
Any Philadelphia fans(here on The Bench)disagree ?

All Star time...they will have a few days to rest and try to turn the season around! Best regards, David

 

[chieftazmisty]

maybe they want to keep up with the 76ers with losses

They stink. And every day they wait to trade Hamels and Papelbon, etc., the value decreases on what they will be getting back. Amaro has destroyed this franchise over the past 4 or 5 years and there is no "end of the tunnel" in sight.

The 08 Phillies Championship is the obvious outlier in what is an absolutely dismal sports city right now. No playoffs for the Sixers. No playoffs for the Flyers. No playoffs for the Phillies. The Eagles playoff hopes rest on Sam Bradford, Mark Sanchez and Tim Tebow..that is NOT a recipe for a parade down Broad Street.

If they play all 162 games .....
I'm going with a 55 and 107 season
.0339(5)pct.
Hope I'm wrong and they can avoid a 100 loss season ,
but that would mean going 34 and 37 the rest of the way ....... don't see that happening though.
2015 , a rough year in Phillies history .
Oh well , "that's baseball,"

With a record of 12 & 3 so far ......... looks like my season prediction
MIGHT not hold up ?

63 - 99, just had to get rid of that bum Sandberg so they could start playing some good ball!
