Some random notes as the Phillies visit the Rockies for a three-game series starting at 8:40pm tonight (see series preview).
Below are the two teams’ MLB rankings on key stats.
The Phils’ 9-9 record isn’t great, but they’re one of the (many) teams tied for 11th in MLB, and 5th in the NL.
One note on the Defense: ranking 15th in MLB is misleading here, since AL teams are dinged by the DH. The Phils rank 13th in the NL, which is closer to the eye test at least.
The Rockies have.
