The Phillies Are Fun In 2019! (PST Show #312)

The Philadelphia Phillies are fun in 2019 and currently first in the NL East and have been extremely interesting to watch this season. On this week's show, we dissected some of the early ups and downs of this team with Liz Roscher, writer and contributor with Yahoo Sports. What's happening with the bullpen? Surprises on the mound and how this team is batting. We get into it with Liz!But first, we got into a discussion about this Sixers' second-round effort, game 5 against the Raptors and whether Brett Brown's days as head coach are numbered. (4:35)Then we talked about Eagles new linebacker Zach Brown and how they've addressed the position that many fans were concerned about. (12:15)We then discussed the new Flyers assistant coaches as Alain Vigneault assembles his coaching staff of the future. (16:45)This week on the Highbrow Segment, we had a discussion about what has become of the announcing booth in sports in light of Peyton Manning turning down the Monday Night Football gig from ESPN to pursue another interest. We asked the question: do the announcers actually matter anymore? (23:15)Then on the Lowbrow Segment, we talked about the worst professional wrestling gimmicks ever. This was a fun segment for all you long-time professional wresting fans. (37:35)What we're throwing down on the Table this week, is an in-depth interview with Liz Roscher from Yahoo Sports about the current state of this Philadelphia Phillies team. Phillies Nation certainly has a ton of expectations for this team that's currently in first-place in the NL East. First, we talked about David Montgomery's legacy after he passed this week. Then we got into the pitching on this team from the starters to the bullpen. What should we make of Cesar Hernandez's and Rhys Hoskins' season to date?
