Game 122 Open Thread: Phillies at Marlins

Being worse than the Marlins is necessary, but still hard to take.

Are you there, God? It's me, Jeff.

In the battle for the worst team in baseball, The Phillies are beating the Marlins. The Phillies will fight tooth and nail for that number one draft pick. They will fight and win by being bad and losing. I want the Phillies to beat the effing Marlins at something, even if that something is being bad at baseball.

Today's Lineups
