Can pretty much the impossible be done.
Phils have 11 games left.
Tonight they start a 4 game stretch in Hotlanta and face the Baby Braves the final 3 games of the season against the Bravos at home.
Phils stand any chance of turning around an ugly late August and September and shocking everyone?
If they sweep this series - things get verrrry interesting.
Phils have a chance?
Yay or Nay?
Go!

Braves magic number is 6 so best they can do is a WC. They're 5 out, they're tied with the D-Backs and the Rockies are ahead of both of them. If they were solely in 3rd for the WC race, they'd have a better shot but they'd basically have to win 10 out of 11 to make it.

The Power of Positive has a tendency to bond a group and make them excel.
Plus we're getting Harper and Machado during the Winter Meetings - take it to the bank baby

Bases loaded for the Bravos in the bottom of the 8th leading 4-3. Hoping the Braves get some runs in because the bullpen sucks

Phillies just walked Dansy making it 5-3.
I think the Phillies need to take at least 3 of this series to REALLY make me think they have a shot. Braves play the horrible Mets in between Phillies series so a Braves sweep could be had there.

Phillies really looking like shit here. Can't even pick off a guy correctly or field a ground ball. Should have been the 3rd out 2 times instead it leads to a Braves run.

They had Dansby picked off---and he still stole the base! lol. That's little league stuff. No way he could handle a Harper or a Machado type ego either. Would be a disaster.

8-3 Bravos going into the top of the 9th. Wish I could say this is over but the Bravos have blown bigger leads than this.

Braves take it, 8-3. Magic # down to 4. If the Braves take 2 more this series it's lights out for the division. I personally don't see Philly getting a wild card birth either.

And yet deGrom has a losing record! 8-9. Way to finish strong Cy Young record season man!

Phillies bullpen blowing it tonight as well. Had a 4-1 lead in the bottom of the 7th and we're now tied 4-4.

Phillies are done. The offense is dead but Kapler's use of the bullpen this season has been the nail in the coffin.
Kapler needs to be fired and Jake Arrieta needs to be traded or released.
