Can Philadelphia Figure It Out?

It’s tough to figure out an exact reason why the Philadelphia Phillies are misfiring, especially a team that with Bryce Harper, Nick Castellanos, Kyle Schwarber other high-level hitters. Looking at  a rotation which includes Aaron Nola and Zack Wheeler, Philadelphia lost its last four games and 11-of-15.

Philadelphia just hasn’t been able to get the job done this season. If the Phillies want to be the team they hoped to be this season, they need to figure it out, and soon. The New York Mets are too good a team for Philadelphia to keep dropping games.

This is going to be a tough opponent for them. Jakob Junis, the Giants’ starter, has limited the Phillie order to a .150 against him..

Ranger Suarez enters with a 4-3 and a 4.74 ERA for the Phils.
