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.

But even in game 1 the bullpen kept us in it after Morton settled in and then Matzek was great in game 2 to keep it 3-0, from there the rest of the bullpen was spotless outside of Luke the rest of the way.

Maybe someone in this pen turns into what Tyler was for us that postseason, but I just don't see who that can be right now. Maybe it's Johnson, idk. You get that one guy who goes in the game and you know will likely give you 1 or even 2 scoreless innings, it kind of stabilizes the rest of the pen around that.
