@Philly__Nation Harper is a way better first baseman. Period. You bring him back and you platoon him with marsh in LF for the games marsh sits against lefties. If you really hate him in LF. DH him that game and put Schwarber in LF. He’s making 150 mil he can play the field from time to time.
@ercole_nick Score was 3-2 in the 8th before he drove in 3. Saying he contributed ZERO to anything this season or any season he’s been here is just delusional…. Bub
@ercole_nick Also it’s not just competition… the media is often if not always disingenuous, inaccurate, and agenda driven politically to create fear and division. It’s dead bc independent journalists create good content and actual cover truths.
@ercole_nick Fans want to hear manufactured bullshit ? Sorry buddy this trash media is not in demand anymore hence why ESPN and all major outlets don’t get the views they once did. But hey enjoy running Casty out of town while the team is on a heater and primed for a WS run.
@ercole_nick Also… let’s not act like topper is this all world manager… they often lose specifically in the playoffs bc of him and his poor decision making.
@ercole_nick lol why don’t you just admit, I personally don’t like him.. bc you haven’t made any valid counterpoints, or acknowledged my main point the media is trying to create controversy. Why are you running cover for corny media guys causing problems in the middle of a WS run
@ercole_nick I hear ya from an analytics standpoint. But how many memorable plays has he made in the field for us in his short time, and he was the only guy to show up in the Mets series last yr. My point is the media is trying to create controversy. The platoon is working. Let it be
@ercole_nick It didn’t tho.. bc the media still stirs shit up with him regardless of his answers. And players get labeled things like “ diva” etc all the time. Casty has given plenty of answers like that and then gets ripped on. Just call it what it is. People don’t like him personally.
@ercole_nick Neither topper or Casty ever said they have a problem with one another. Dudes a 10 yr vet who literally played 162 last yr. And was the only guy who showed up in the Mets series. But we are mad at him for being competitive and upset he doesn’t want to just collect a paycheck.
@NatalieEgenolf Let’s calm down with the “journalism” they get paid to watch pro sports and ask the team questions. Asking questions repeatedly after perfect answers were already given is bait. Bait For a sound bite to do exactly what it did. Create controversy. “ JoUrNaLiSm 🥴”
@ercole_nick And also what about hurts ? Lol dude says all the right things and still gets trashed locally and nationally for not putting up Peyton manning stats weekly. Lol
@ercole_nick@saddlesurfer2 By your logic … if he answered the question on multiple previous interviews and he’s been playing less…. Do you think his answer is going to change? No it’s corny Philly media bs exactly like the AJB nonsense.
