34 games over .500.  It wasn’t so long ago that getting to 30 over seemed like a real stretch.  Nice.

It was great to sweep the Reds, who have been playing well.  But they just traded Drury and Castillo and probably others, and are a shell of a team now.  It was a good time to play them and we took advantage.

Lindor and Naquin are hot.  Heck, pretty much everyone is.  Good to see Pete get 3 hits which will hopefully help get him out of a mini funk.  He always seems to hit well in Philly anyway.

Playing the Phils in Philly will be tough.  They are playing great ball and arguably have their 3 best starters going against us.  But our guys are pretty good too.  ;)

I think these are the matchups:

Friday

Suarez vs Scherzer

Saturday

TBD (Nola) vs TBD (deGrom)

Sunday

TBD (Wheeler) vs TBD (Bassitt)

Scherzer, deGrom and Bassitt all will have an extra day of rest from their previous starts.  I believe Suarez and Nola do as well.  Was kind of hoping to see Thor pitch for the Phillies but he pitches today so it is not going to happen.

Should be a great series to watch.  Some great pitching matchups.  Probably going to end up with some high scoring games.

I think I said the same thing before the Mets-Braves series and that turned out to be pretty accurate.

The Phils just released Familia, who was quickly picked up by the Red Sox.  His ERA was above 6.  Yikes.
