The dude is wearing double zeroes for his number. Incredible! We’re all going to be very mature about this.
If the Phils are serious about revenue, which I think they are because they’ve put advertisements on everything, then they will fast track this guy’s development. They will throw the kitchen sink at Titsworth and make damn sure that he rapidly rises through the ranks. I wanna see this guy in the Lehigh Valley as soon as possible, striking out fools from the Columbus Clippers and Rochester Red Wings. Then he gets his big league call-up and the crowd goes nuts: We want Titsworth! clap clap, clapclapclap – We want Titsworth!. It would be crude, perhaps, but we have to focus on what’s important in life, which is watching sports and laughing while not taking ourselves too seriously.
As for whether or not this guy is any good – no clue. 338 players were drafted before him, but he’s a 21-year-old with a big frame and pitched as a long man this past season while starting seven games in 2025. Apparently his fastball sits around 93-94 but has topped out at 97, so maybe that’s what the Phils are looking at here. Tall guy with an outlier fast ball that catches your attention. Maybe he comes something. Here’s hoping.
