Phillies Stat Notes: the year of Rhys

Despite losing two of three in the Arizona series, the Phillies still have the second best record in the NL, two games behind the Cubs, and percentage points ahead of Milwaukee.

That series was one of the worst of the year offensively, and the split between their run scoring and run prevention is more pronounced than it has been all season.

After bouncing around league average for most of the year offensively, they’ve now fallen to 11th in both overall hitting (wRC+), and average runs scored.

Their team ERA is now 3rd best in the NL, and the fielding-independent metrics rank the Phillies’ pitching 2nd (FIP) and 3rd (xFIP).
