| 0:00.6 | Philly firing. Let's play ball. |
| 0:15.4 | Welcome everybody to fantasy pros. This is leading off brought to you by bed MGM, |
| 0:19.8 | the king of sports books. It's me Joey P with me today is the Welsh and it's you. |
| 0:25.2 | And we got a big story to start the show. A lot of people watch and live today because |
| 0:30.1 | the Philly's fired their manager Joe Gerardi is gone. It is Sayonara Mr. Gerardi. |
| 0:37.1 | The Philly's have gone 132 and 141 under Joe Gerardi, including a 22 and 29 stretch so far |
| 0:43.8 | this season. Rob Thompson is going to take over as their interim manager now Welsh. |
| 0:49.3 | Joe Gerardi certainly has a lot of experiences of manager. It's also had a lot of |
| 0:54.0 | moments in his managerial career where he has rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. I remember |
| 0:58.7 | in the Marlin situation. Rutted a lot of people the wrong way. Had a lot of success in New York, |

| 1:28.3 | we all thought were really good in the off season. So if you're not performing, eventually somebody's |
| 1:33.2 | got a swing and it looks like the swing is going to be Joe Gerardi. And sometimes for these guys, |
| 1:39.2 | those incredible awesome roster moves are the death of them because you can't waste the years. And |
| 1:44.8 | I think that's obviously what the team looks at. You cannot waste these years of Bryce Harper. What |
| 1:48.6 | was it? 12 of 15 loss. You can't do that. There's also you could question the underdevelopment of some |
| 1:54.7 | of the young players. Bones kind of got up and down. Stop didn't quite work out so far. |
| 2:00.0 | What I'm curious about though, because I find this still odd. I find it odd in June 3rd that you're |
