Let's have a look back at some preseason predictions

He's one of many pieces added this offseason. It's not like we are banking on him carrying this team by himself.

Phillies added multiple legit current All Stars this off season besides Harper lol. The lineup is going to be upgraded big time.

A borderline .500 team last season should be much improved.....at least on paper.

Forget McCutchen, hes a nice add (not MVP form but still solid) you forget we gave up our best prospect for the best catcher in baseball as well? Realmuto is legit, and can hit REALLY well...hes going to be hitting in the middle of the lineup for sure (4th or 5th).

Not to mention Realmuto is Harpers good friend, aka one of the biggest reasons Phillies were willing to give up so much to trade for him.

Not sure what point you're trying to prove but

Phillies lineup is so much improved from last season it's not even funny.

Adding 3+ current all stars and some of the best players at their positions can do wonders ya know. Hoskins isnt the only slugger in the lineup anymore.

This is a 90+ win team at minimum right now. Still moves to be made too

I mean was I really that unrealistic? They underachieved, we all know this?

I also said McCutchen was a great add, which he was, and then he went down in the first few weeks of the season with a season ending injury.

On paper doesn't always translate, example A the 2019 Phillies.


Okay, 90 wins didn't happen they're an 80 win team. Boo hoo lol, it's not like I said they're a world series lock.

The lineup was upgraded, and did perform better than the previous year, just not AS much as we would have expected. :wallbash:

There are many, many more good quotes Terps. Keep on digging!

I like the one where he was bragging about how they were the first team to ever acquire 4 all stars in the same off-season. That sure worked out!

But I think my favourite and I really wish I could find the quote (not sure if it was in this sub or FnR) was when DM mentioned that the Eagles had 3 straight road games in October because the league must have assumed the Phillies would be playing October baseball 🤣🤣

If you're going to quote me, at least be accurate.

Those acquisitions turned out to be just fine? Bryce had a good season where he hit a career high RBI's and the second most hits and HR's of his career. J.T. Realmuto was the best catcher in baseball, and Jean Segura had a Jean Segura caliber season.


The October baseball thing is pretty funny though rofl
