Type of crap Ruben spits out every July

[Klein25 @Klein25]

Fun Dodgers trade ideas:

LAD acquire: INF Jordan Westburg
O’s acquire: OF Teoscar Hernandez & P Paul Gervase

LAD acquire: INF Jeremy Peña & OF Jake Meyers
Astros acquire P Tyler Glasnow, $20 million cash.

How reporters feel when asking if winning game one is a big win every year

@BeaneaterB Sending Don Mattingly the fart smell after every bullpen implosion

[Explaining The Phillies @ExplainingPhils]

Forgot all the miis from your switch randomly appear in switch sports resort so out of the 47 mii presidents I had a fist fight with James Garfield and played basketball with Joe Biden

My 90 buck one I bought like 5 months ago for 512 GB is looking mighty nice now

[Nintendeal @Nintendeal]

Amazon is now selling their owned branded microSD Express cards (256GB, 512GB, 1TB) but they're some of the most expensive available right now

1TB is $438.89 https://t.co/iR6xzxq8Kf #ad

you're better off picking up a few of these Samsung 512GB cards for $99.97 each and swapping them out as needed: https://t.co/nbsoLnszq3

alternatively, Walmart still has their onn brand 512GB card for $84.77 https://t.co/Ds7T6UXWbq

Bro shows up to the debate stage to poll 2%, talk some shit, and then bow out before running it back again the next election. Just pure love of the game

[Max Steele @maxasteele]

Christie was like a hog in slop at those debates. Knew he was never going to be POTUS so he focused his efforts on ensuring several other people also would not be POTUS.

A true hater, through and through. In this rare instance you gotta hand it to him.

[Explaining The Phillies @ExplainingPhils]

This is very unfortunate

[Intentional Talk @IntentionalTalk]

After 16 seasons, the final episode of Intentional Talk will air November 4th, 2026.

@SieraSantos, @Dempster46 & @KMillar15 reflect on the show's run and their last four years together.

[Explaining The Phillies @ExplainingPhils]

@Jared_Tims That’s fair then my mistake

[Explaining The Phillies @ExplainingPhils]

Not falling for the “he’s actually terrible” gimmick again

[Jared Tims @Jared_Tims]

Good news about Teruaki Sato, he can play some OF.

Bad news he also runs about the same K% as Murakami did in the NPB and he doesn’t have the same pop he has either.

So we’ve got a .220 hitter that hits 25 bombs that K’s 30% of the time and plays a corner OF spot.

I’d argue Phils/Braves, Rays/Guardians, Padres/Brewers, and White Sox/Guardians have all been decent-great series’ this year

[Daniel Fox @DanBFox1287]

Right now, the worst postseason in recent memory is 2007.

Division series had 3 sweeps and a gentlemen sweep between Indians and Yankees where the best moment was a bunch of bugs attacking Joba

NLCS had the Rockies sweeping the Diamondbacks, and though the Red Sox/Indians went 7 games, there was one actually good game

Then the World Series was non-competitive

I think we are a boring World Series away from 2026 catching them

[Explaining The Phillies @ExplainingPhils]

Won’t believe it til Passan tweets it

[Explaining The Phillies @ExplainingPhils]

Pretty clear there’s a problem communicating it to the hitting side because the pitching side has been quite good

[Zack Scott @ZackScottSports]

Three teams left, and all three have bigger-than-average analytics staffs.

Brewers: 46 (2nd in MLB)
Rays: 39
Guardians: 30
League average: 28.5

The Phillies have the biggest staff in baseball, and they're already home. Like payroll, it's one input. Everything else combined still matters more.

Mr.@Dombrowski

[Just Baseball @JustBB_Media]

The Hanshin Tigers have officially accepted Teruaki Sato’s posting request.

Sato won the 2026 Triple Crown in the NPB, hitting .306 with 39 HR and 106 RBI in his age-27 season.

[Explaining The Phillies @ExplainingPhils]

@pjmr26 Off the top of my head idk but I know Turner has been dogshit. JT surprisingly from what I remember has actually been pretty decent in the postseason

[Explaining The Phillies @ExplainingPhils]

Bryce Harper and Kyle Schwarber each have a playoff OPS of .900+ with the Phillies. Bryce at 1.064 and Kyle at .943. The problem lies in the rest of the current team. The next two highest are Turner and JT at .771 and .734 respectively. You need more than 3 players to win

[Explaining The Phillies @ExplainingPhils]

@GoldyKnocks Why in the world would we trade for Yordan and not keep Harper

[Explaining The Phillies @ExplainingPhils]

@BeaneaterB He had some pep in his step til he got older

[Explaining The Phillies @ExplainingPhils]

These highlights are a good way to remember that Jayson Werth was one of our all time playoff homer hitters for a while

[Phillies and Eagles throwbacks @Philsbirdsthrow]

10-18-2009- The Phillies rout the Dodgers 11-0 to take a 2-1 lead in the NLCS @2008Philz

[Explaining The Phillies @ExplainingPhils]

@mhartg1 @PhilsAddict Would absolutely take that as well

[Explaining The Phillies @ExplainingPhils]

Would look good on the left side of our infield

[Punchoutpitch @Punchoutpitch]

Jeremy Pena is an “ideal trade candidate” this winter after the Astros failed to extend him, per @Chandler_Rome

Pena is a free agent after the 2027 season

@crissanchezfan Tbf, he did offer the blue jays the exact same terms and they refused
