Memory can be a fickle thing. When one thinks back to each time the Phillies face a young, exciting hurler for the first time, it usually feels like that pitcher will show exactly what he was so touted when he faces the Phillies. It always feels like that rookie has his best start when facing the Phillies, no matter his struggles. Logan Gilbert is definitely not a rookie, having debuted last year for Seattle, but he hadn’t lived up to his top prospect status just yet. He’s been good, but it felt like when he got his turn against the Phillies, it would be one of those “That’s the day he became the ace” type starts.
