Crazy to come back to this video with our boys in the World Series!

I really hope we get a 2022 Phillies revisit about how one change at manger single handle turned a team that seemed lost into a playoff contender

Great video really.... as there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos and that'll be a home run. And so that'll make it a 4-0 ballgame.

I came back to this video just to laugh at how prophetic it was.....GO PHILS!

The best addition the Phils made this offseason is Kevin Long. Dude can just flat out teach people how to hit, and has a great ability to hne in on what hitters need to do to improve.

Dont sleep on Moniak he's gonna be nasty this season. Kevin Long as hitting coach has turned him around and also, helped Stott make the roster. Yes the the free agents a big upgrade, but with these young guys, it could make their line up incredibly deep.

I appreciate the video on the Phillies but I’m a firm believer that it won’t be as bad as projected, 2nd, CF, and C were solid last year and didi at short last year played with an injury that left him incapable of extending his arm, stott plays a better defense than bohm at 3rd, I’m not saying this team will be good defensively because 1st and LF are going to be a nightmare but I truly believe it won’t be as bad as projected

10:38 I thought you were about to say “and the defense will be screwed” and I was like...fair enough haha. Great video, enjoyed it!

They certainly may break Philadelphia

Damn this is hype to go back to after seeing them make the WS

My boy's at it again with another sick video. I'm so so excited to see how this year goes for baseball as a whole

stott and moniak bring huuuuge potential to the lineup and could be great subs for those bottom 3 guys

the fact you made this 6 months ago and the phils are now in the world series is mind blowing 🤯

The conclusion for this video Phillies really break the baseball

Awesome content my guy. Keep it up and your channel will be huge in no time.

As a fan I want to see them make the playoffs, been a while and playoff Baseball in Philly is always great. I do see a lot of 8-7 wins this year.

i think someone on the staff of the Phillies seen this, love seeing how all this panned out, 9:35 hold up wait isnt this the same way J.T. got his inside the parker today 😎😎

I remember watching this 6 months ago as just another fun vid of yours to watch, but seeing it again. you have a good attention to ail and basing hot tkaes of of facts and not feelings!! also I'm so happy for harper, I hope he gets his first chip this year!

Just watching this for the first time and just amazed by the accuracy of this video as a life long philly fan, literally played the Utley inside the parker that J.T hit this postseason too like you can't make this shit up.

This approach has been tried before. Most of the time it fails. I'm a Texas rangers fan for a long time. I remember the 1990s and early 2000s rangers. They were terrible with the exception of 3 years, they were all slug and no defense. About the only persons playing defense in those teams was Pudge Rodriguez and Kenny Rogers. Gary Matthews did have his moments though.

Coming back to this after game 3 of the world series

Solid, solid video. As of this post the Phils are 6-8, super early in the season. Losses have occurred mostly due to the bats disappearing and starting pitching struggling. Bullpen has been outstanding and defense hasn't been an issue so far. Gonna check back periodically to see where they are; probably every 16 games.

I'm just waiting for the legendary sequel to this video

My Phillies are World Series bound now. Seems to be working so far

I really enjoy your videos, keep it up

Great video, i enjoy the comparisons by the numbers. Can you do a video like this breaking down the numbers for how good the blue jays are projected to be vs teams with those numbers in the past?

Could you please make a video on the Phillies season at the end of September? See what happened that people thought they couldn’t or wouldn’t do this season, what they improved on, and how they navigated this season to make the playoffs. Love your videos

I'm honestly suprised you don't have 100k subs. Its a crime! Keep up the great work, love your videos!

I appreciate the insight but as a phillies fan. Respectfully we’re winning the world series

Great vid. My fingers are crossed because I really like the moves they made.

Please do a follow up video! The Phillies broke baseball!

thumbnail is fuckin hilarious. As a phillies fan, I really hope they make something happen this year. Either way it’ll be so fun

Great video! Go Phillies!!

Great topic good work

After last season I would highly question anyone who says Brad Hand was an addition... he was awful last season.

A Phillies video!? Hell yeah!

Had to come back to this!!!

The Phillies just clinched the 3rd Wild Card spot in this year’s post season. Has the “experiment” worked? Or is this just a prelude to it excelling in the 2022 postseason? What is your opinion on this, now that the 2022 regular season is pretty much over?

What a terrific deep dive. Great job

This line up from beginning to and middle end could prove to be disastrous for opposing pitcher's providing they stay healthy! Go Phillies!!!

I'm not a Phillies fan. Never seen your channel before, but I threw you a like and a sub and this comment at around the 15 second mark. I can tell you produce quality content. Keep it up. Will now resume watching.

It’s also worth mentioning that McCutchen was AWFUL defending LF for the Phillies last year. You’re replacing a bad defender with someone who can’t be worse. With stott, moniak having a good spring, Didi looking healthy, and Kilambi’s (math genius from Tampa) additions in the bullpen, this team is gonna win over 90 games and potentially the NL east. Bookmark this comment, it’ll age well

And this is why the Phillies were considered underdogs. Now we are in the world series

Zach Wheeler’s babip is in shambles

I don't know diddly squat about baseball stats but still loved this video. Great work!

Glad you compared the current team to at least one year of their golden era. I'd like to know what the defensive stats were for their world series winning team and even maybe a direct comparison

7:30 to 7:40 is insane. The Phillies did end up going to the playoffs as a wild card seed (6th as well) and anything could happen (and they went to the World Series). The clip also shows the Phillies hitting a home run off of San Diego, their NLCS opponent. Wow!

Gonna be fun to watch.

Great video!

Interesting video. We'll see how it works out for the Phillies this year. Really surprised that Dombrowski was able to talk Middleton to go over the luxury tax threshold. Let's Go!!!!!

''but thats just a theorie a sports theorie''

crazy looking back on this now...

Welp goodjob you were right hey there experiment may be even more crazy this season with trea

Phillies are my favorite team we’ll find some magical way to fuck this all up

This video warmed my heart

Keep in mind that Moniak is coming up and had the top three most Homeruns in spring training. Stott contract was taken and will be with the team as well. Those two were hitting hard. bohm is still a great hitter and can be a great DH if needed.

Eflin and Didi were both injured last year so I expect both of them to have comeback seasons. And they both have done really good in Spring training, and Didi did pretty good today in the first real game

Looks like the experiment worked!! Lol

With the league’s March toward the 3 true outcomes I could see them doing better than they might seem at first, since emphasis on defense is becoming less and less each year. Probably not *playoff* caliber but not as bad as, say, the 2021 diamondbacks

You predicted this pretty well man

Yo this video is cool to see after the Phillies going to the World Series

This video actually aged so fucking well

This offense will be fun to watch. As a Cards fan I do appreciate great defense but good offense is always fun to see.

How are you always so good at calling stuff sportstorm?

Low key this team is deadly. Time will tell

I’m a big Sixers basketball fan. And I’ve always watched the Phillies but never really got deep into it until 2020 I loved the video even tho most of the numbers went over my head. I’m excited to see what Philly brings this year. Hopefully their bullpen holds up and we no longer have hector nerez.

Damn, the Pirates shade lol

This is what we in gamer circles would refer to as a "glass cannon" approach.

It is easier to put together a team that scores five runs a game and gives up four than one that scores 4.5 and gives up 3.5. A 162 run differential is worth about 18 wins, so these would be, roughly, 99 win teams, division winners. The problems with run prevention-emphasis are that it is more costly to prevent runs and the approach is much less stable over time owing to higher rates of debilitating injuries in pitchers that arise from supination of the wrist and forearm when throwing cutters and sliders and slurves and curves. Dr. Mike Marshall was the authority on this. The bottom line is that is a more sound strategy to create separation with run scoring than with run prevention. What the Phillies are doing, what Dombrowski has done before, and what the infield and outfield coaches are saying is absolutely valid. Kiermaier in his best year was not a better baseball player than Harper, because you can’t make up for huge offensive gaps with defense, not over time. Defense is important but far less important than hitting and with the increasing strikeouts defense is also becoming less and less important than pitching. People will bring up the Rays as an example of winning with pitching and defense lol but the Rays score around five runs a game-they aren’t the 80’s Cards, not by a long shot.

I was hoping the Reds would have used Castellanos as their DH this year ! He is an exciting player to watch hit, you just don't ever want the ball hit to him ! Good luck to him !

This video just popped into my feed a little more than 2 weeks into the season. Just for reference, so far the defense hasn’t been an issue

Offense looked as advertised today. Hopefully they can keep it up!

Aged pretty well let's see what happens in the next week

Coming back to this video and man, it is breaking the sport.

Great video

A Phillies video??? I'm pogged up

Crazy good predictions in this video. The Phillies were the 6 seed and they're 3 games away from winning the World Series!!!

I think the Phillies infield defense has looked better this spring. Didi is fully healthy now and has looked good at shortstop with some great plays. Stott is a significant upgrade at 3B over Bohm in terms of defense. Segura has always been a good fielder and was decent last year, but will hopefully be even better. For me personally I can´t disagree with the questions over the outfield defense, however, Harper has a CANNON, same with Castellanos, who I would assume are the two that will play the most out there. So at least they aren´t bad fielders AND has noodle arms, that would be even worse. But yes, dingers over defense. That´s the vibe.

this just popped into my recommended, but it went well so far i think

I’m here watching this video in late October 2022 while the Phillies are one win from going to the WS.😂

18-21. Still a lot of season to go. But not looking good as of the morning of may 21. Though mets are dealing with Pitching injuries. Will see how things play out next few months.

Gonna be quite a few 6-5, 7-4, 7-5 kinda games this year. Not sure how they fare, they’re probably a borderline WC team, but it should be entertaining, that’s for sure.

watched this 4 or so months ago. today I remembered it as the Phillies are in game 4 against the Braves

And here we are. About to break baseball!

not focusing on defense still brought them all the way to the world series, but it probably also lost them said world series with a few HUGE errors throughout the series, as a phillies fan, getting a trea turner or correa would be amazing, as well as getting rid of rhys, and having harper back in right field, this team is only a great defense away from a championship

The Phils may not break baseball, but it sure will make the baseball season more interesting and a must watch!

Thank you for making this. Is anybody here right now

9:20 ayo; he absolutely murdered that baseball.

One reason why The Braves won the World Series... because of their defense.

Thats a football quote for baseball, though.

Ball go boom, all I gotta say

How those tigers didn’t win a championship will cause me a lifetime worth of pain

They did definitely break baseball! No one predicted this! No one saw this coming! 2 more games at the bank and hopefully 2 more wins to the series! Go FIGHTINS!!!

We're taking our Division and making the Playoffs this season! ⚾

it's early but this video hasn't aged well.

This video needs more acronyms

I'm glad you brought up that tigers team! Defense wins championships

And now we’re in the World Series!!! Magic number is 4!!! As a Phillies fan, it’s been unbelievable with how shaky the defense can be at times.

Great comparison with DD old Tigers squad, if the pitching was better

As a Phillies fan who doesn't remember their short dynasty in the 2000s, I hope they can do it for the fans NL PENNANT BABYYYY!! GET THAT BLUE FLAG UP IN ASHBURN ALLEY!!
