\n
I had forgotten he managed the Marlins for seven<\/em> seasons (2016-2022) and only in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season did he have a winning record (2020).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
Anyway, a manager is usually only as good as their roster, and in this Phillies roster ol\u2019 Donnie Two Times might have found himself firmly between those Marlins teams and his Dodgers teams. There are certainly good players on this roster, but as we saw in San Francisco and as we can see by their record, the bloom is off the rose for this particular group.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
You know, unless Don Mattingly energizes them for this series.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
But the 10-game losing streak they\u2019ve already suffered this season is their longest since 1999. They\u2019ve also lost 11 of 12 heading into this series. Their 9-19 start is their worst since 2002. The vibes are nonexistent at this point.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
On the other hand, there\u2019s a chance the Giants might have actually lost some of their momentum with the travel day. Going 4-2 on a homestand that included the Dodgers was such a good time and their comeback from a 3-0 deficit in the finale against the Marlins so heartening that getting on a plane and heading east seems like it could\u2019ve cooled off a team that was warming up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Can the confusion and consternation of the Phillies situation make it easier for the bats to stay in a groove? We\u2019ll find out, I suppose. The Giants faced two of the pitchers in this series back in San Francisco and got 11 hits and 4 runs against the Phillies\u2019 ace Cristopher Sanchez. In three starts since, he\u2019s given up 26 hits in 17.12 IP while striking out 20. He has a 4.11 FIP in that span as well.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
You\u2019ll recall that the Giants shutout the Phillies in the final two games of the series and since then, Philadelphia has mustered just 3.75 runs per game (60 runs in 16 games) and a team line of .218\/.284\/.370 with a 7.2 BB% and 21.7 K%. It was actually lower on the 9-game homestand they had following the Giants series (3.66).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
That Phillies series really does feel like the first key turning point of this Giants season and having a rematch so soon could be tricky. The Phillies have enough dangerous talent that the Giants are better off seeing them in a state of transition than at full strength and you just hope they can get through this series before they coalesce around their new manager.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
A famously not great manager.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Still, it\u2019s Baseball, so, you never know. Maybe this is the situation that works for manager and team. But, you know, they should put it together after <\/em>the Giants leave town.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
Who: <\/em>San Francisco Giants (13-15) at Philadelphia Phillies (9-19)
Where: <\/em>Citizens Bank Park | Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
When: <\/em>Tuesday & Wednesday at 3:40pm PT, Thursday at 10:05am PT
National broadcasts: <\/em>MLB Network simulcast (Wednesday)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
Projected starters<\/strong>
Tuesday: Tyler Mahle (RHP 1-3, 5.26 ERA) vs. Jesus Luzardo (LHP 1-3, 6.91 ERA)
Wednesday: Logan Webb (RHP 2-3, 4.86 ERA) vs. Cristopher Sanchez (LHP 2-2, 2.94 ERA)
Thursday: Adrian Houser (RHP 0-3, 7.36 ERA) vs. Andrew Painter (RHP 1-2, 5.25 ERA)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
Kyle Schwarber: <\/em><\/strong>Again, always keep an eye on this guy. He\u2019s been the second-best hitter on the Phillies in the 16 games since the Giants series (135 wRC+) but with 6 homers and an 11% walk rate. On the negative side, just a .197 average and 29.6 K%.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
Bryce Harper: <\/em><\/strong>He has been the best hitter on the Phillies over the same span (150 wRC+) and has mixed in 4 homers, 2 doubles, a triple, and a home run to go with a 10.4 BB% and 20.9 K%.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
Jesus Luzardo: <\/em><\/strong>It\u2019s going to be tough to get to Cristopher Sanchez twice in a month, I\u2019d think, so the series might come down to how they handle the other Phillies lefty. He\u2019s had just one great start this season (11 strikeouts and 1 run in 6.2 innings at Coors Field), but his only other decent start was last week against the Cubs in Chicago where he allowed just 1 run in 4.2 IP to go with 4 walks and only 3 strikeouts. He\u2019s made 6 career starts against the Giants and sports a 5.37 ERA in 31 IP. Last year, though he was 1-0 in 2 starts with a 2.19 ERA.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
Adrian Houser: <\/em><\/strong>It\u2019s probably not going to go well for the Giants\u2019 well-paid pitching machine, but he\u2019s pitched okay at Citizens Bank Park for his career. In 4 games and 2 career starts, he\u2019s 1-1 with a 3.38 ERA and \u2014 gasp \u2014 just 1 home run allowed. Now, that count could go up right away, but on the other hand, the Giants might need him to spin a gem for them to pull out a series win.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
Heliot Ramos: <\/em><\/strong>He appears to be sneaking back to his lefty-mashing ways (career .849 OPS vs. LHP) with a triple slash of .292\/.346\/.500 (.846 OPS) in 26 PA against them this season. He\u2019s been on a roll of late, with a .932 OPS over his past 15 games (55 PA).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
Matt Gage\/Ryan Borucki:<\/em><\/strong> It\u2019s going to come down to getting some key outs against lefties and, well, these are the non-Erik Millers available to the Giants.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
You know what? It could be worse for Giants fans, right? The Giants could\u2019ve dropped $10 million on the manager\u2019s position and be in a Phillies or Mets situation right now and we\u2019d all have to sit there and let things play out while the front office hoped like hell that things would turn around. Vitello looks less deer in the headlights just a month into the job and, well, that\u2019s a very good thing. But if Don Mattingly <\/em>is able to exact some revenge against the Giants by catching Tony Vitello doing something \u201cfirst time manager\u201d-ish, I\u2019m gonna lose it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
The Giants were lucky that Don Mattingly was the Dodgers\u2019 manager for all those years. Sorry, Phillies fans.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The Giants will figure out a way to win a game in this series\u2026 right? Don Mattingly isn\u2019t going to turn this whole Phillies mess around in a single series\u2026 right??<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
