cooking anything good?
i'm making a protein platter - hamburgers over kale/spinach.
there were whispers that Zach Wheeler may sit out the season due to Covid
was about to type wonder if he hears some boos tonight after signing that huge contract - but forgot there will be no fans in the stands
this is the first time i get to see him pitch - curious to see his stuff.
this is actually good for him - because i'm sure if there were fans in the stands and he got completely lit up - even though it's an exhibition game - he'd here it a bit walking back to the dugout.
risky signing all that money and years for a 29 year old who already had Tommy John - Klentak said he's put our 1-2 punch of Nola/Wheeler up there with anybody - we'll see about that - hope he's right.

In Philly, is anger part of the piped-in crowd noise? Can they actually recreate the sound of bitterness? |

Curious as to what cardboard cutouts are in the stands.
How about people throwing batteries and snowballs at Santa Claus - like that one Millar  |

wheeler is taller on the mound than i expected - taller than Nola, same height as Arrieta, Eflin is a giant at 6'6
still awaiting word on who the 5th starter is - they just sent prospect spencer howard back down so they could get another year of control over him but he should be back up
thinking the #5 may be between velasquez/pivetta but was hoping they'd be in the pen

awesome - according to reports alec bohm and howard can be called back up relatively early since this is only a 60 game season - at Game 6 - sent back down so the team can gain one more year of control over them financially.
fascinating stuff eh Phillies Nation/Army?

andrew mccutchen? thoughts? glad to see him back.
it's exactly when they took a nosedive last year - when he was lost for the season
leader in the clubhouse. glad to see him back leading off.

this is actually awesome watching a home town team play a game for the first time 4 months. last nights game wasn't televised here. don't care if it's an exhibition and nobody is in the stands - seeing some familiar faces and listening to familiar voices play ball |
