Birds must soar. Fish must swim. Sluggers are going to slug. Rob Thomson claims this to be the gospel.

In 2023, the Phillies’.438 slugging percentage placed them fifth in all of baseball. That number was.342, better only by the Mets and Marlins in the National League, going into play last night. And what was the manager of the Phillies going to do about this awful situation?

“Just keep chasing them around.” Considering that we will slug. At Citizens Bank Park on Thursday night, Alec Bohm, Brandon Marsh, and Bryson Stott led the Phillies to a 5-1 victory over the Pirates. “And if you don’t think we’re going to slug, you ain’t watching the games,” he added coolly.

This group is designed to slug. As we wait for it. And it will arrive.

This had become somewhat of a problem because the Phillies had 19 hits, all singles, between Bohm’s game-winning double in St. Louis on Monday night and his go-ahead home run in the bottom of the fourth on Thursday.
