We need to get out of there with a couple of wins. I still can't believe what I saw last night. Santana walking the 8 and 9 hitters to set up a monster inning. I was yelling for Jerry to leave him out there. If he was embarrassed, he deserved it. In the end, I'm sure Jerry made the right move. You've got to protect your ace. But in the moment, I was pretty upset with him. I even went so far as to tell my wife that the Phillies had beaten the Mets ace... last night. It was my snarky little way of suggesting that Pelf is now the ace. Johann has lost a few mph on the fastball, and I'm hoping that this outing isn't indicative of what he's going to give us the rest of the way. Oh well... gotta shrug this one off and get ready for Cincy. Thank goodness there's no off day today! Agreed Mike, the Cincinatti series will be important for our pshyche.
