I just don't believe that they can coast over the next 10 games, have 6 days off, and then flip a switch and be unbeatable again. I think they need to be clicking going into the playoffs (like the 2021 team was) because there is no time to find your bearings in a 5 game series. Have to be ready to go from the first pitch.

Is it possible to avoid having to use Elder in the LDS for game 4 without bringing Fried or Strider back on three days rest?

I don’t think that’s the case huh? It’s either throw Elder or throw Fried/Strider on three days.

I don’t think winning or losing is going to carry over with all the days off. We are going to need a spark when the actual playoffs arrive.

The Phillies were beyond bad over the final month last year. One of the worst Septembers for any team who’s ever made the playoffs. They slept walked through game 1 of the WC series before they exploded in the 9th due to some sloppy play by the Cardinals and the rest is history.

We totally slept walked through game 1 of the NLDS in 2021 and really played with fire in the 9th of game 2. Then Joc’s homer in to the chop house in game 3 seemed to change the entire feel and attitude of the team the rest of the postseason imo. I don’t think it was anything that happened in September.
