At this point in time, believe it or not, the Philadelphia Phillies are still in that super tight NL East race. It won’t be easy to make the MLB Playoffs but at the end of the day, the Phillies have a shot to make it provided they fix one of their most glaring areas. Hitting.
That’s right ladies and gentlemen, once Rhys Hoskins was out due to an unfortunate groin strain injury, it proved he was the only catalyst on offense. Without Hoskins in the lineup, the rest of the Phillies lineup suffered when it came to not only getting players on base but at least getting some hits on the stats sheet.
