The Phillies won a game today by two runs; it was a game they were leading 7-0 at one point. It’s the second game in the last 25 where they had a lead of at least seven and came very close to losing (Miami Marlins, 4/27, won 12-9 in a game they were leading 10-1). One of the reasons this game ended up being so close is because manager Gabe Kapler mismanaged the bullpen and unfortunately this seems to be a trend. In what’s shaping up to be a very close division race the Phillies shouldn’t be - they can’t be - giving away games, Every single one will seemingly matter and they can’t afford missteps.
Is Gabe Kapler mismanaging the Phillies?
