This. Also let's bring up Bohm and trade Jean for a competent pitcher.

Didi has been average
You're right I meant Kingery.

EDIT: Funnily enough Didi just gave us life in this game.

It could be that, but I feel like a bunch of guys on the team fell off a cliff at the same time rumors came out about over-tinkering with mechanics.

Then again, this article might suggest that Kingery, for example, was never going to be able to adjust:

Oh, and here's a sad excerpt:

I didn't pop into this thread last night because I knew what the outcome of the game would be and I knew talking about it would make me more frustrated than I already was...This team is really hard to watch.

Same, and... yeah.

Like, watching Rube burn down a potential dynasty was one thing, because at least that team was fun to watch, and did win for a while. This is just ... I don't know.

At this point, Harper must be miserable, and I can't imagine Realmuto would be interested in an extension.

If I were Realmuto I'd not want to stay. Hell I saw his face last night and he was not happy.

It really sucks because I've only been a Phillies fan since 2010 so I've only seen the team get worse

I'm happy I don't have to watch pivetta pitch anymore
