WoW! Quite the way to start the game. Looking like Nol is going to be a big problem this season.

Foul (94.2 mph four-seam fastball)

[Philsmania]

I'm beginning to think the Phillies' experience with Nola's contract will be similar to the Nationals' with Patrick Corbin, sans the one great year which contributed to a World Championship.

[kikutaro]

Trea Turner

Ball (95.4 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (87.6 mph changeup)
Ball (95.5 mph four-seam fastball)
Called strike (93.4 mph four-seam fastball)
In play, no out (95.4 mph four-seam fastball)

Trea Turner singles on a ground ball to left fielder Mauricio Dubón. Rafael Marchán to 2nd.

[LoneStarPhan]

Boy. I don't think the platoon advantage is going to make Dylan Moore hit Sale any better than Crawford or Marsh would have. But unless Nola pitches a real gem the game's not going to be won or lost at the bottom of our batting order or on our CF defense either.

Agree that it is unlikely that anyone hits Sale much. I did note that last night the RHP walked Turner in the tenth and was replaced with the lefty pitcher, who walked Schwarber and then gave up the RBI hit to Harper. Then after striking out Garcia, he gave up hits to Marsh and Stott before striking out Bohm. So much for LH/RH matchups.

I read somewhere that Crawford hit LH pitching very well in AAA last season, but Thomson is training him to not be able to hit LH pitching this year. I don't know if Crawford is the real deal or not, but I hate the way he is being handled so far this season.

[VoteForKalas]

Our pitching strength (rotation and pen) has turned into a pumpkin so far this season. Combined with a punch & judy offense, it is just U.G.L.Y as Fishbone used to sing.
