Podcasts about Taijuan Walker

The Phillies needed to do something to get their struggling offense going.So, Rob Thomson on Tuesday finally made a change to the lineup. He moved Trea Turner into the leadoff spot. He moved Bryson Stott into the five-hole. Why five? Well, because Bryce Harper is injured, and the rest of the lineup might be struggling even more than Stott. The Phillies need almost perfect pitching to win these days. They didn't get it in Tuesday night's 8-4 loss to the Cubs, which included Mick Abel's first stumble in the big leagues, and Taijuan Walker's first stumble in his first high-leverage situation as a reliever. First Pitch is powered by betPARX Sportsbook and Casino app.The Phillies Show is partnering with Shibe Vintage Sports to give away a different vintage Phillies hat each week!

Jesús Luzardo looked not only like an NL All-Star a week ago, but he looked like a NL Cy Young candidate.So, what's happened since then? Well, Luzardo has allowed 20 runs in just 5 2/3 innings in his last two starts. Historically, the Phillies haven't had a pitcher do that in consecutive starts in almost 100 years. What the heck is happening? Even he doesn't know, but he knows he's got to fix it soon.We talk Luzardo, Taijuan Walker, Mick Abel … and the Phillies' struggling offense. Is it time to make a change in the leadoff spot?They say Delco's a lot … and they're right.

Bailey Falter is starting for Pittsburgh. Falter got 12 starts with an ERA of 3.14 with WHIP of 1.08. The left hander strikes out 15.9% with 8.5% walks. Ground balls sit at 39.8% with 0.82 home runs per nine innings.

The 94 WIP Morning Show discusses if Tijuan Walker can be trusted in high-leverage situations coming out of the bullpen the rest of the season or if he can be trusted in October.

Phillies pitching prospect Mick Abel impressed in his Phillies debut earlier this season and continues to impress in Triple A! Enough so that the Phillies have called Abel up to their starting rotation sending Taijuan Walker to the bullpen! Are these two moves the thing that can jumpstart this Phillies pitching and bullpen or just shuffling around chairs on a sinking ship?

In hour 4, Joe, Hugh and Kyle are reacting to the Phillies new pitching shakeup adding Mick Abel to the starting rotation and moving Taijuan Walker to the bullpen. Could this finally be the move that jumpstarts the Phillies pitching unit this season? Plus, reactions to Saquon Barkley being named this year's cover athlete for EA Sports' Madden Football!

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner talk MLB betting for Friday. The guys also give out best bets. The MLB Friday podcast with Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner previewed the full Friday slate with in-depth betting analysis. Munaf opened by noting seasonal transitions while Griffin celebrated being up 22 units in May. Munaf described his bad beat with Arizona's bullpen meltdown against the Phillies. Griffin praised Corbin Burns' outing despite Munaf's loss. For Cubs vs Reds, Andrew Abbott was confirmed for Cincinnati while Colin Rea was probable for Chicago. Rea's 5-1 record against the Reds was clouded by a 5.88 ERA. Griffin warned against trusting Reds closer Emilio Pagan, recommending first-five bets for Reds backers. Munaf noted mild wind at Wrigley, making early scoring possible. For Orioles vs White Sox, confusion surrounded Chicago's starting pitcher—Sean Burke or Jared Shuster. The Orioles were heavy -215 favorites. Munaf hesitated to back either side, citing Zach Eflin's recent struggles and Chicago's poor form. Griffin criticized the White Sox as dysfunctional, saying backing them was dangerous. Milwaukee faced Philadelphia with DL Hall starting against Taijuan Walker. Philadelphia was favored at -133. Bryce Harper was listed day-to-day with an elbow contusion. Griffin emphasized Milwaukee's overreliance on base stealing and bullpen fatigue. Munaf supported Philadelphia, noting their 19-9 home record. The A's faced the Blue Jays with Jeffrey Springs against Chris Bassett. The Blue Jays, favored at -160, saw Bassett excel at home (1.61 ERA over 28 innings). Springs pitched well but suffered from bullpen collapses. Munaf leaned Blue Jays and under 8.5. For Rockies vs Mets, Peterson faced Freeland with Mets huge -306 favorites. Freeland struggled at Coors but was slightly better on the road. Munaf suggested Mets team total overs while Griffin found no value backing Colorado. In Giants vs Marlins, Harrison faced Quantrill. Griffin noted Quantrill's recent turnaround (4 wins, 6 ER in May), while Harrison's pitch limit posed risk. Munaf agreed Miami offered home underdog value. Guardians hosted Angels with Luis Ortiz vs Jose Soriano. Soriano's control issues were concerning (14 walks in 4 starts). Griffin favored Cleveland's patient lineup, citing bullpen advantage. Boston played Atlanta with Giolito vs Grant Holmes. Griffin detailed Red Sox clubhouse turmoil and lack of cohesion. Munaf pointed out Giolito's inconsistency, especially against Atlanta earlier. Both leaned Braves team total over. In Cardinals vs Rangers, Lieberatore likely faced Jack Leiter. The Rangers had gone 24-6 to the under at home. Both hosts strongly supported the under 8.5. For Tigers vs Royals, Casey Mize opposed Seth Lugo. Griffin backed Kansas City due to Mize's IL return and KC's home form. Munaf highlighted Lugo's good career numbers vs Detroit. Tampa Bay visited Houston with Pepiot vs Valdez. Griffin respected Houston's design against lefties. Munaf leaned under, noting Framber's 4-1 under record at home and Pepiot's 3-0 road unders. In Pirates vs Padres, Keller faced Pivetta. Griffin liked first-five unders due to San Diego's offensive struggles but found little value elsewhere. Munaf noted Keller's poor past vs Padres. The Nationals faced the Diamondbacks with Irvin vs Kelly. Griffin leaned over given bullpen issues and Arizona's park. Munaf added Arizona's historical home unders with Kelly but agreed on D-backs team total over. Seattle hosted Minnesota with Zebby Matthews vs Brian Wu. Wu's home dominance (12-1) made Seattle a strong pick. Both leaned under 7. Lastly, Yankees faced Dodgers with Max Fried vs Gonsolin. Fried was surprisingly favored at -116. Griffin was shocked Dodgers were home underdogs, citing bullpen risks for New York. Munaf also preferred Dodgers ML and slightly leaned over. For best bets, Griffin chose Phillies ML at -126 while Munaf picked under 8.5 in Cardinals-Rangers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

After much discourse of who would have to give up their starting spot between Ranger Suarez and Taijuan Walker the Phillies may have found their answer.

Taijuan Walker pitched well in last night's loss to the Washington Nationals, but it was a costly error from Philadelphia Phillies first baseman, Bryce Harper, that doomed Walker's start and handed him the loss.

Ranger Suarez will make his season debut on Sunday afternoon. PHNX Diamondbacks' Host, Derek Montilla, joins the show at 1:30pm.

He's probably going to the bullpen, even though he has pitched well in his first six starts. That's because Ranger Suárez is rejoining the rotation on Sunday. We discuss how the Phillies should handle Suárez and Walker, and who might get bumped from the bullpen to make room for Walker.They say Delco's a lot … and they're right.

Coming back to the Ranger Suarez to the bullpen debate. It's time to give some praise to Taijuan Walker who despite doubt and criticism from Phillies fans has stepped up and done enough to keep his starting spot! Further showing it's smarter to send Ranger Suarez to the bullpen!

In hour 3, the WIP midday show talks about another reason to sending Ranger Suarez to the bullpen is Taijuan Walker has earned his spot in the Phillies starting rotation!

And, Rodger Goodell continues campaigning against the tush push with the revote date fast approaching!

On today's show, the WIP midday show are excited for Ranger Suarez's return this weekend where he will start Sunday!

The Philadelphia Phillies continue to struggle with runners in scoring position, going 1-11 last night in the series opening loss to the San Francisco Giants.

Alec Bohm hit a rocket to Braves second baseman Ozzie Albies in his first at-bat on Thursday night in Atlanta.Albies caught it. Bohm flipped his bat.

Last night, the Phillies secured a 4-3 victory over the Braves. Taijuan Walker pitched for 4.2 innings, recording 5 strikeouts while allowing 5 hits. Trea Turner hit a solo home run in the 9th inning, sealing the win for the Phillies. Bryce Harper also contributed with an impressive 2-run homer in the 7th inning. The Phillies are set to face the Braves again tonight as they look to wrap up the series and pursue their 4th series win of the season.

The Morning team reacts to Taijuan Walker's second start of the season and a 4-3 Phillies win. Despite the win, Joe DeCamara is more struck by the negatives, like Alec Bohm going 0-5 with four strikeouts.

Hour 1 of the show, Taijuan Walker is touting a 0.00 ERA in 2 starts for the Phillies this year. The Morning Team is STUNNED!

In hour 2, Joe, Hugh and Kyle are curious if fans have bought into Taijuan Walker enough that he can remain the starter even when Ranger Suarez returns from injury? And, Brandon Graham has left the door open on a potential return to the Eagles next year, but Hugh Douglas believes he should go out on top and just enjoy retired life now.

On today's show, Joe, Hugh and Kyle set out to find solutions for the struggling Alec Bohm and what course of action is best to handle the situation between doing nothing, moving him down the lineup or benching him. Also, Taijuan Walker's strong performances have now all of sudden impacted Ranger Suarez and what his role might be when he returns from injury. Plus, Brandon Graham has left the door open on a return to football, but is it wise for Eagles legend to come back after announcing his retirement last month? And, there is a superstar pass rusher who could be on the trade block that the Eagles need to be monitoring!

In hour 3, the WIP midday show covers the news that T.J. Watt is reportedly unhappy with the Pittsburgh Steelers and the contract negations with the Steelers. So it's time for the Eagles to go on T.J Watt-ch to see if they can get the 6x all pro and former Defensive Player of the Year to come east to Philadelphia. Plus, Taijuan Walker's stellar start to the season could have implications for Ranger Suarez's role once the Phillies pitcher returns from injury.

Taijuan Walker followed his stellar first start with another great outing yesterday. Walker was thrust into the lineup amid a Ranger Suarez injury. But with Walker's recent success Joe Giglio believes keeping Taijuan Walker in and sending Suarez to the bullpen upon his return to improve the pitching unit overall

KB & Harrison are BACK and kick things off discussing the Phillies and Braves series that's ongoing in Atlanta. The guys discuss the great start to the year for Nick Castellanos, Bryce Harper going yard, and Taijuan Walker pitching well.
