00:00I'm going to say it's almost as if us talking about running it back over and over again is a
00:05bad idea was the correct take because they are talented. Nobody's saying that they are not a
00:11talented bunch. We can talk about elite status versus not elite status, all-star versus not
00:16all-star. They are a talented group. They should not have these swings in a season where it's just
00:22so bad, but guys, they choked in 2023. They did not show up to the playoffs in 2024,
00:34and the mistakes that they make throughout the courses of regular seasons came up again at the
00:40worst time in 2025 against a team that you can't make mistakes against in the Dodgers. It's almost
00:47as if the reasons why they have been losing the last couple of years in the postseasons
00:52continue to be an issue for the Phillies moving forward because you're not changing anything.
00:57Dave Dabrowski has continued to run it back. He extended players. JT Real Muta was brought back
01:04despite the last couple of postseasons of this team struggling. Tell me how that makes sense.
01:09Don't give me handles the pitching staff. Well, you have to make changes because there might be
01:15something to, as Jalen Hurts would say, a DNA thing. There might be something to this baseball team
01:21that gets tight in playoff games and big moments, and when you're supposed to have an impactful
01:27stretch run like they're supposed to be on right now about a trade deadline. They've gotten tight
01:32during this. This is a group that gets tight any time the lights are at their brightest. It's why are
01:38we surprised? This has been happening for four years now.
