It has been a rough stretch lately for the Phillies. Injuries up and down the lineup, struggles from the starting pitching, a road trip where they lost five out of seven to the Rockies and Mets, and a return home only to lose the series opener to the lowly Marlins.
And yet here they still sit, only 1⁄2 game out of first place in the NL East.
Before jumping into the stats, this reminder is still needed...
Small Sample Warning: It’s only been 25 games, and any such small sample is always going to have weird stuff going on.
