Uggghhhhh more disappointing Phillies losing. The Phillies couldn’t figure out Charlie Morton, a pitcher who isn’t that good, and a guy they once had on their own team. But more went on in last night’s game, so read on.
This headline is a little disingenuous. The main thing here is that Herrera is still making some disappointing mental mistakes, like bat flipping a fly ball that was well-short of the outfield wall, or not running on a dropped strike three. (The Astros made fun of Herrera for his fly ball bat flip, and honestly, I can’t blame them because if Odubel is going to bat flip everything, including his mistakes, then he’s gotta expect teams to laugh at him for it.
