Philadelphia Phillies Update
Nola will be joining the team, and will the Phillies have a six-man rotation, and how will it work out for the Phillies? Currently, the Philadelphia Phillies are in first place, and we need to see how long they will last. Last year in the playoffs, the Phillies didn’t do well at all. What the Phillies need to do is to focus on the small ball and hit, and try to win. If they do that, then they will do well. Currently, the Phillies’ pitching isn’t doing well, and it seems like they don’t have their command.
