The Phillies fell to the NY Mets this evening, with a final score of 5-1. Christopher Sanchez departed early after throwing 58 pitches over 2 innings due to forearm soreness. As the Phillies prepare to rebound in their next game against the Mets, concerns remain.

Cristopher Sanchez was DEALING yesterday, as the Philadelphia Phillies starter struckout a career high 12 batters over 7 innings in route to a 6-4 win over the San Francisco Giants. The Phillies split the four game series with the Giants. Up next, Sandy Alcantara, Xavier Edwards and the Miami Marlins come to town for a 3 game weekend series at Citizens Bank Park. Plus, is Bryson Stott making his case to remain Rob Thomson's leadoff hitter? And why are New York Mets fans so angry with Juan Soto already?

Alec Bohm, Brandon Marsh and a bulk of the Philadelphia Phillies lineup struggled this weekend, and on the road trip in general, as the Phillies lose 2 of 3 to the St. Louis Cardinals, and finish the road trip 2-4. They're now 9-6 on the season, which is still their best start through the first 15 games of a season over the last few years. Now, the 11-4 San Francisco Giants come to town for a four game series. Can the Phillies power through a cold spell and lean on the starting pitching until things get going again?
