The entire Philadelphia Phillies team has reported to Clearwater Florida for spring training except for Trea Turner as his wife just had a baby so we will give him a free pass. Hopefully his newly gained dad strength will be able to get his batting average over .300 this year. But the big news so far, is that both Bryce Harper and Aaron Nola have food poisoning and are sick. It is not known whether or not that both of them had to same food from the same place which is why they have it at the same time. Bryce Harper is getting roasted on Twitter for his bout with food poisoning as he posted a video of how he makes his coffee with raw milk.
I love Bryce Harper a lot, I think he is the best thing that has happened to the Phillies in the last decade, but god damnit can he not be a normal human and drink normal milk. I cannot complain too much though as he has 2 MVP awards and a 330 Million contract and I have a blog. Basically the same thing right?As far as to why Aaron Nola is out I have not seen anything on what he had to eat. My take is that since he is a southern boy from Louisiana, he probably wanted some nice seafood. I bet that seafood was made by a guy that is working undercover for the Mets.
The rest of the team is looking mighty fine. I like the side arm Japanese pitcher that the Phillies signed this off season. Koyo Aoyagi will be an awesome name for 94WIP callers to pronounce when he makes it to the bigs. Christopher Sanchez is also looking built as hell. It looks like he put some muscle on in the off season. But not enough muscle as during live at bats today Alec Bohm smoked a double off of him.
I am super excited for the Phillies first spring training games this Saturday. Even though it will just be a bunch of prospects, it is still very cool to see Philadelphia Phillies on my TV screen again. Please share with a Phillies fan so we can all pray together that Bryce Harper and Aaron Nola tummy's feel better so they can get back together with the team.
That is the Tea, with T
