Entering the 2019 season, the Philadelphia Phillies had suffered through six consecutive losing seasons and seven straight non-winning campaigns.
Today, in the midst of a rough stretch in which the club has last six of its last eight games, the Phillies are a winning team. Despite the recent losing the Phillies are 13-12 and just a half-game behind the first place New York Mets in the National League East Division standings.
Still, there are fans who left these comments as responses on our Phillies Nation feed at Twitter following Thursday night’s loss to Miami:
“Maybe Phil’s should sign Schmidt and Carlton anyone better than this current line up 500 ball club pitiful!
