Can the Phillies actually put a high quality defense on the field?

If you are like me, you grew up watching baseball in the late 80’s/early 90’s and had to suffer through the dominance of the Atlanta Braves. Thanks to their games being beamed to every television in America with TBS with annoying regularity, we were forced to watch this team progress to a dynastic collection of talent that routinely beat up on the Phillies.

Pitching? They had it.

Hitting? They had it and traded for it.

Fielding? They had it.

You could also see the changing of the guard too, with new players coming into to take the place of older ones, cranking out above average to great players like Ford put out Model T’s.
