The Phillies were a pretender team all along. They misled some people into believing otherwise only by paying the wages. The only teams to spend more than Philadelphia’s $233 million were the Yankees, Mets, and Dodgers.

It was going to be challenging for the Phillies to get 90 victories, though, because of their dubious bullpen and subpar defense. Joe Girardi was made to pay for such shortcomings. However, he did not stop there.

Girardi was let go by the Phillies on Friday following a 273-game tenure that can only be described as a disaster.

With Philadelphia, Girardi went 132–141 and oversaw the poorest bullpen in baseball (5.00 ERA), only surpassed by the Rockies (5.38 ERA). Despite pitching the fourth-fewest innings, Girardi’s relievers gave up the fourth-most home runs and the fifth-most losses in three seasons.
