Homecoming already for Ben Revere. I wonder if that will give him some extra motivation in this series.
Tulo should be more comfortable against NL pitching, so hopefully that gets him going again.
Both our starters have strong numbers against the Phillies. I would be genuinely shocked if they struggled against them.
It will be interesting to see how they get guys in the lineup. EE, Colabello, Smoak all play first and Colabello can play a below average LF, but then where does Revere play? Plus, there are now two extra players on the bench. Do we see guys like Donaldson and Bautista get a rest if they end up playing in a laugher? They'll need them fresh down the stretch to take a serious run at the division.
Honestly, if they don't win both of these games against the worst team in the entire league I'll be disappointed.
