CANCEL The Phillies Pt. 2 

James Franco in a Braves hat to the Phillies after losing the NLDS 3-1 to a division rival who was a wild card team: "First time?"

I figured with the hurricane National disaster Castellanos would’ve been good for a Homer.

As a Mets fan, I swear to god if this happens to us in 2 years with the Nationals I will scream

2008: Won World Series with 92 wins 2009: Lost World Series with 93 wins 2010: Lost NLCS with 97 wins 2011: Lost NLDS with 102 wins 2022: Lost World Series with 87 wins 2023: Lost NLCS with 90 wins 2024: Lost NLDS with 95 wins Second time this has happened with that franchise. Just weird.

2022: Lose in Word Series 2023: Lose in NLCS 2024: Lose in NLDS I guess all that’s left is to lose in the Wild Card next year lmao

LA-SD game 5 will be wild

There is a trend out there that since 1982, whoever beat the Brewers first would end up going to the World Series.

The Mets beheaded that 3-headed monster of a bullpen you were talking about.

Huge Mets fan , this season has been a fever dream

As a Braves fan who has had to hear it from Phillies fans ... I dont hate this outcome

2022- 87 wins. Lost WS in 6 2023- 90 wins. Lost NLCS in 7 2024- 95 wins. Lost NLDS in 4 The Phillies get better in the regular season while simultaneously getting worse in the postseason haha

Phils ran into a ridiculously hot team. That Mets pitching was insane and the Phils bullpen was destroyed.

The Phillies have always seemed like a home run or bust kinda offense, and it just simply isn’t sustainable, especially when the key bats inevitably get cold. I feel like having a couple big power hitters is healthy, but a good postseason team needs to play small ball effectively in my opinion.

Mets playing with house money at this point. Makes it A LOT easier to play clear minded.

The funniest part is, they have just been regressing every time. And that's after all the trash talking about how the team was built for the postseason. Lol. I remember how Philly fans were making fun of Braves fans for talking about the layoff and how bad it was for the team going into the postseason. As usual though the Phillies fans have disappeared and it's all crickets now The only people who call Philadelphia the toughest place in the postseason are Philadelphia fans. It's not true and they're the ones who walked out of their home game against the Diamondbacks with a couple innings left and still time to make something happen.

Now you know how we felt for the late two years... -A Braves fan.

There is no such thing as choking in baseball in a five game series. It is all just a crap shoot. This is why wild cards are stupid and anathema to a 162 game schedule. The regular season should ONLY find the four most deserving team. That is what made baseball fun for 100 years. Then we had to start giving out participation trophies.

It's very possible we could see another Subway Series this year.

Nice to see the Phillies in the role of the Atlanta Braves this year.

My favorite thing about the fall is the colder weather and seeing the Phillies collapse in the postseason.

“History doesn’t repeat, but it often rhymes” -Mark Twain

No one should cop out and blame the BYE or the "rust" at all. This is just who the Phillies are. Either red hot or ice cold. They were ice cold this series. Just like they were for most of September, Games 6 and 7 of the 2023 NLCS, and Games 4-6 of the 2022 World Series. I'm not blaming the playoff format for the Phillies being who they are.

I read a tweet that said "The Braves Met-ted, The Mets Philli-ed and the Phillies Brave-d. The NL East is silly"

When the Mets hit a homerun at a home game I will yell: "THE APPLE IS RISING"

“Red October “ 😂💀💀😂

Phillies had a lights out bullpen...until the Mets knocked their lights out

I’m not sure the whole “time off” thing has an affect that people think. The yanks are up 2-1, dodgers are going to game 5 against the best team in baseball the last 3 months, guards and tigers has been a tight series although tigers are up 2-1. My point is other than the Phillies all other series have been tight. Phillies just have a history of the bats going quiet in the postseason.

Phillies tanking at end of season thinking they'd have an easier road vs the Mets ended up backfiring lol

Phillies: 2009 - World Series 2010 - NLCS 2011 - NLDS 2012 - Missed the Postseason 2022 - World Series 2023 - NLCS 2024 - NLDS 2025 - ????

the Phillies deserved this after all that sh** the players were talking all year. They were so cocky about winning that division, but The Mets owned them completely all series.

Phils fan here. Congrats to the Mets and pulling for you in the NLCS. I think Phillies fans could see this coming. Starting with the A’s series before the all star break the Phillies haven’t looked like they could put a consistent playoff run together. They were just a .500 team after the break.

how is that BYE WEEK, Phillies?

I’ve only been super into baseball since 2022 when they introduced the 6 seed in playoffs and so far it’s been insane to me just how much chaos is in MLB playoffs. Once you get there, literally any team has a chance to win the whole thing. That is unlike NBA or NFL so much. I love the chaos (I’m a dbacks fan) but I totally understand the frustration that the best teams don’t make the World Series

Not to take anything away from the teams that do beat the top seeds but I do think something has to be done to give the team that’s supposed to have the advantage a better chance to avoid being bounced out. It is tough to win when you’ve been sitting around for a week having to play a team who hasn’t stopped at all.

As an Mets fan the Phillies get a taste of their own medicine. The Phillies = 2023 braves The Mets = 2022 Phillies The Braves = 2022 Mets .

As a native Philadelphian, I never thought the Phillies would go anywhere. Too much ego, not enough teamwork. And, they've been shown the door, again, this time by the Mets. I'll be wearing my Mets hat happily all around Philly for the next few days. 😁😁

Mets Dynasty begins. Cohen’s money, Stearns’ brains, Mendoza is the perfect manager, stacked farm, all-star caliber rookies, excellent core and mix with veterans, and best fans in baseball - bar none. Oh and Soto is ours too. Accepting applications for bandwagon now.

Hmm I wonder if the Phillies like the break in play now

Lmao I expected this to happen 😂😂😂

Dear Phillies, now maybe, just maybe, you'll understand. Sincerely, the Braves... P.s. And this Mets team is by far worse than any of the Phillies teams that beat the Braves. Let that sink in ;)

The Mets are not a scrappy underdog, they have the highest payroll in baseball, and underperformed for a quarter of the season. This is what was expected of them.

As a Mets fan, I knew going into the NLDS against the Phillies would be difficult but I had faith. Then on the flip side I saw a video a Philly fan made about how they aren't worried about New York and how it'll be an easy series and blah blah. Did you not see what we just did? Unlike Met fans, we don't underestimate our rivals, we know how good they are and that's why we don't like them, Philly fans really went into this series underestimating the Mets. (I've seen several Philly fans so mad at the loss that they are calling the Mets cheaters LMFAO). The Phillies tried their best, but their best was not good enough.

Às à Braves fan I have one thing to say. How did that layoff work for ya? Looked kinda rusty.😂😂😂😂😂 😂😂😂

Blue and Orange (Mets and Knicks) OWN Philly Sports 🟦🟧🔥

Let’s go dodgers! Don’t want a “dodgers choke again” part 12 sooo

Castellanos and Harper saying they owm and are the mets daddy but how if yall couldn't even swing at the baseball both couldn't stop the Mets at all and both wanna say they own and that they're the mets daddy when they just got eliminated

That final regular season series they had a Citi Field where the Mets took 3 of 4 from them should’ve been a clear indication of what was going to happen. The fact anyone believed the Phillies were going to sweep the Mets was laughable. Had the Mets bullpen not imploded, the Mets could’ve swept the Phillies. All the Mets did this series was expose the Phillies and show that they were just a fluke because the Braves were missing their top guns.

So quick with it

Only good thing if the Mets win the whole thing? MJF will be insufferable on the mic and it'll be glorious

The Mets really Braved the Phillies lol.

It seems like the BEST teams in the regular season are not built to win in the post season. Yankees, Philly's, Dodgers, it seems they can not win a best of 5 or 7 series but can have the best record in the regular season. Pitching and defense wins rings........... 75/25 IMO

Congrats to Mets. Well played

I get it because of the trend, but to me this feels more about the Mets than it does the Phils. This damn Mets team is annoyingly good right now

No tragedies no winning for casty

I'm a phillies fan and this video is very accurate. Spot on with everything. The Mets were far better and deserved it completely. My hat is off... not to you, I've just thrown my hat across the room.

BRYCE.....WHO ?

The phillies need to get it right next year because none of their players are getting any younger

Bryce, thanks for bringing a championship back to D.C.!!!

As a Braves fan, this video warms my heart.

That’s what the Phillies get for not showing us any respect. It’s our turn now. LGM!!!!

I see the exact same thing in the tigers except instead of grimace we have the power of TBD

The Phillies went out recreating their 2022 World Series loss. Going into the late game up 1-0, only for Lindor to pull a Yordan and turn the game upside down with one swing.

Better than made the cut imo Love ur channel bro! ❤❤

Welp, so much for 3rd times the charm

why did rob thomson put hoffman back in when the guy was sitting for 20 minutes as a reliever, they literally all looked like they just didnt care

Philly had it too easy in the NL this year. Mets had to grind it out. Similar to what Philly did in 2022 when the Mets and Braves were at the top. I knew that if the Mets could steal one in Philly, they could close it out in Queens. Games 1 and 4 were similar games- Philly Starters shutting down the Mets but Mets working the pitch count to get into the BP. Even when the Mets were doing bad this year, on paper, they were a team of great hitters. And that 2022 Mets team was known for grinding out at bats. They wore pitchers out. This years team still has some of that approach but with some timely hitting.

MLB script still strong. Knock out all of the Yankees threats. Astros, now the Phillies, Doyers be next. 😂

The Phillies and Dbacks were hot coming into the playoffs but both ran into buzz saws in the World Series. I think this year is different. I think one of the "underdog" teams is going to win the WS this year.

As a Diamondbacks fan, we have kept a seat warm for the Phillies and an extra ticket so they won't steal one. We are going to see red together.

Don’t go blaming the bye now

The Mets didn’t sneak into the playoffs, they had the best record in MLB after June!

Phil’s had easiest first half schedule and one of hardest second half. I remember their fans losing their minds when analysts would say “let’s see if they can keep this going second half.” Welp, they didn’t. Because they weren’t that good. Braves won the World Series in 21. Nats in 19. Those are orgs that know how to get it done, maybe not every year. But they have recent rings to prove it. The Phillies are just vanity jocks who can’t even step up unless the have the 30th hardest schedule in baseball. So funny that they actually dropped off the way they did

I hate when I’m right…. I’m a Phillies fan and I picked the Mets to win in 4. But I thought they were going to win game 1. I thought the Phillies were a .500 team at best at the end of September and were not a playoff team.

Was a sad day for Phillies fans... but the Mets deserved it. Even before the post season started it felt like the Phillies were running on empty. Mets came back from being 10 under .500, and several weeks of incredible comebacks before this series. I wish the Phillies had taken it all the way, but you can't deny that the Mets earned it.

All i have to say is hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha now you see what it was like the last two years for us braves fans. See them rest days arent as good as advertised are they.

I knew the Phillies wouldn’t win when they traded for that choker Estevez from the Angels. He can’t do anything later in the season he only has success early in the season. Couldn’t have imagined the way he did them in but wow! Giving up a granny and like always bending down and staring back at the HR he just gave up like he couldn’t believe it. Get rid of him and upgrade that BP Phillies.

What, you think letting Pat Burrell walk wouldn't have long term consequences?

For a team as stacked as my Phillies I believe that the coaching kills the teams spirit they always pull the pitchers to soon way to soon

I thought the break didn’t hurt teams 🤔

AFTER WE LOST 18-3 TO THE OAKLAND ATHLETICS THE GAME BEFORE THE ALL STAR BREAK AND GAVE UP 8 HOMERS AT HOME I KNEW WE WERE COOKED. I believe its time to move on from Rob Thomson. Hes just not an aggressive manager.

Its the man bun that cursed them

I bet giraffeneck Is Having A Sezuire For His Mets Advanceing to the next round but anyways great video bro like always I’m happy that u have made here after seeing u have 50,000 subs a long time ago so congrats I’m happy for u

What the Mets are good at is making their opponents' defense throw a lot of pitches and digging their cleats into their opponents' bullpen when the call has to be made.

The 22 phillies was a bad comparison to the Mets, Mets are more 2019 Nats

Real

Detroit fans need their respect they got Roudy yesterday

Something off topic i just wish a player will rip the add patches and put on a postseason logo on the jersey and hit a cluthc homer. Just to 'we're ball players not billboards'.

Philliea annoyed when braves manager said the bye reasoning was an excuse.

I told yall Nlcs Mets vs Padres Padres in 7 Alcs Royals vs tigers Tigers in 6 Ws Padres vs tigers Padres in 6

Man you didn’t even mention the most important aspect of this story. The down time kills division winners. Hitters and pitchers come into the playoffs cold. WC teams are always on point. It took out the Dodgers and Braves for the past two years and now it took out the Phillys. The format needs to change

No pressure on Mets .

and like my dad always says Thay are good during baseball session but when it comes to the playoffs Thay choke

Two years in a row we lose in the playoffs to teams we absolutely should NOT have lost to. Embarrassing.

Having that time off claims another victim. As a fan I would hate to have a bye in the first round.

If you are the Phillies, you have to try to make a massive shakeup in the offseason. You can’t go back with the same exact team. They clearly aren’t good enough. 2023 was their chance and they pissed all over it

The way we were playing down the stretch, I can't say I didn't see this coming. But that doesn't make it any less heartbreaking. Offensively, their approach as a whole was just bad. No discipline at the plate, too much reliance on the long ball. It just isn't sustainable. Although really it wouldn't have mattered in the end, since the bullpen couldn't even stop a nosebleed! Let me tell you, as far as the bullpen's execution, I'm ALL IN FAVOR of it! I think the thing that frustrates me the most is that I feel this year was as open as the title window was gonna get. They're gonna have to deal with these same Mets again next year, plus the Braves are gonna be back at full strength, and the Dodgers are gonna have Ohtani's pitching to go with his hitting. Changes need to be made this offseason, or the window might shut on us completely

Game 5? NOT NECESSARY !!!

The dave dambrowski playoff bullpen meltdowns continue......

“playing better overall” it’s not hard to play better when your starters are hurt 😭

Grimace effect 🎉🎉
