Game Thread 7/25: Astros at Phillies

Oh sweet Moses, last night was horrible. Really bad. I mean, it’s not like we don’t know that the Astros are a better team than the Phillies. We’re well aware. But did they have to beat the Phillies into the ground like that? Seriously, that sucked almost completely, save for Nick Williams’ triple.

But tonight they’re back at it again, because they have to be. That’s the point of all this. So let’s see who’s gonna be out there.

Oh no, Nick Pivetta. I’m so sorry, Nick. I have faith in you, but the Astros have a scary offense. Maybe Charlie Morton will give the Phillies offense a little help by sucking and being easy to hit. At the very least, I’d like them to avoid a blowout tonight. Keep the bar low, right? That way it’s harder to be disappointed.
