It sure seems to be. Despite adding Asdrubal Cabrera, Wilson Ramos, Justin Bour and Jose Bautista over the last few weeks, the offense continues to flounder. This weekend, they scored just four runs in three games against an admittedly-good Chicago Cubs team, but isn’t this an offense that is supposed to mash the baseball at home?
That hasn’t been happening lately, and this weekend, the problems with the bats were especially apparent. Is their solution hopeless? Not according to manager Gabe Kapler.
Kapler says he's not concerned about the Phillies' offense.
