Ah the old 2008 World Series rematch, now 10 years later. Of course these two organizations – let alone teams – look nothing like they did in 2008.
The Phillies will try to move to two over .500 with a win tonight against a scuffling Tampa Bay Rays squad. They’re 3-9, attempting to win with three actual starters in their rotation (they have tons of injuries and are using bullpen days as fourth and fifth starters). The Phils are tentatively going to see a bullpen day on Sunday; otherwise, they get probably the team’s best two pitchers in this series.
