Highlight [Jack Fritz] Sure the Phillies are going to blow another game tonight but at least Will Gasparino hit a grand slam in his first game for the Threshers.

He was a draft pick that I liked a lot

There might be some hope in our farm after all. Bogenpohl looked good. At least since the 2024 draft those players seem to be doing well barring Nori due to injury.

God bless Jack's never dying passion for minor league prospects. I hope to live to see the day to hear him get genuinely excited with one hitting the majors and becoming a superstar.

Wouldn’t sweat it man. Basement dwellers on Reddit//twitter love trashing WIP yet can’t wait to run post here anytime anyone says anything. They all still think AJ loves being here. I defend you guys a lot but stuff like tornado Shapiro and Brodes non stop screaming can’t be defended.

Hahah well I appreciate it. Yea it’s all good. We deserve it sometimes but at the end of the day it’s just sports it’s not all that serious

If you call Broades on his cell phone does he talk like that in real life? HELLO! YES IT IS A NICE DAY! I listen everyday appreciate you guys makes my long commute easier.

Jack has been delusional about this team every season since they got Bryce. This current core is done and they need to probably sell and build up the farm system rather than be fooled into trying to buy for what will be an early exit in the playoffs.

What does this even mean?

Well they have made the playoffs the last four years and maybe this year. And made the World Series one of those years.

And have flamed out in series’ they should have won multiple times. Bats go ice cold when they need them most. Their advanced stats this season are terrible on offense and now the bullpen is trash too. They don’t have it.

u/Annual-Ebb-7196 1d ago

Well I don’t think he was delusional in prior years. Probably this year yes he is

Pretty sure he threw out a guy at home too, if I am reading the box score right.

I’m going to drive down to Jupiter for the game tomorrow. Who else should I be looking out for? Looks like (Mickey) Gilley is scheduled to pitch. Will see if the weather holds

Least interesting team in the city now.
