Teams with less than 90 wins don’t win the WS all that often. The Phillies and Padres weren’t even that great in Sept. pretty much every playoff team had a better record in September.
Phillies hit bombs. Hopefully they can do it against the astros pitching.
Still don’t understand not putting in Hader there, but it is what it is. Good season.
I wouldn’t mind 7 game series in the DS, but 5 is probably enough. The three game series is dumb but better than 1 and it’s punishment for being a WC team. Win your division and you don’t have to play a coin flip 3 game series.
