  1. Maybe the personal issue is what has caused him to lose focus. And control. On the mound that is. Best wishes for Jose.

  2. Personal issues are just that. Hopefully whatever Jose Alvarado is dealing with in his personal life goes as interference free as any of us would also hope for.

    Murder disclaimer here, in case he actually did something bad

  3. He’s a big man with a big heart (what everyone says about him at least). I hope he fights through whatever he’s dealing with.

    This is all assuming he didn’t do something stupid that didn’t come out yet, but I would be pretty shocked

  4. Fuck.

    Not at Alvarado being given time, I hope he and his family are OK.

    Fuck at having to watch Mercado pitch in the big leagues again 😂

  5. Sure do how everything is okay with Jose. I love watching him pitch. He’s a big guy comes in like a cement truck and mows down batters.

  6. Best of luck Jose and I hope you work through your personal matter quickly 🫶🏻 The Phillies are better with you (most recent struggles aside)

  7. I know I’ve crucified him on multiple occasions, but I hope whatever it is, it’s not anything serious.

  8. Alverado has been awful since the London Game 2, but a lot of our hitters have been even worse performers since then.

    Hope he gets his issues solved, at any rate.
