2012
Photo from ChadMoriyama.com - there are two more angles so check it out. Lee vs. Gee: one of the best matchups we get now and then, and not just namewise. The two have matched up before and provided some six-letter pitching matchup excitement. Dillon Gee is 4-3 with a 4.92 ERA. He can be stellar and […]
Yesterday was an eventful day for the Phillies: Cliff Lee pitches seven strong innings and goes 2 for 3 at the plate. Carlos Ruiz blocks the plate and Yadier Molina Juan Pierre tied the game with a double in the 7th Hunter Pence hit a 2-run home run off of Jason Motte in the 10th. […]
Well, this brings lots of bad memories. Ryan Howard on the ground, Jason Motte appearing out of nowhere and actually pitching well, David Freese being uninjured just long enough to do some damage. But, it's 2012, the Cardinals are without Carpenter, Pujols, Berkman and La Russa, and the Phillies are without Howard, Utley, Oswalt, Madson, […]
No way – it can't, be can it? After using 25,732 different lineups, Charlie Manuel will actually use the SAME ONE two days in a row as the Phillies face the San Diego Padres for the second game of a three-game series. Roy Halladay is on the mound for the Phillies, who have lost his […]
Well, the Phillies optioned LHP Joe Savery to the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs. Earlier today, our Rich Wilkins called for a move – SOMETHING to change the dynamic of this incredibly boring, unentertaining team. So who is it, and why can't the announce it now? Some possibilities: The player coming up has not been […]
Whaaaaat is going on? Just about a dozen hours after the Phillies and ace Roy Halladay turned out a huge clunker, fifth starter Joe Blanton came out and gave the Phillies one of the best pitching performances by any Phillie this season as the Phillies took down the Atlanta Braves 4-0. In a game that […]
Well, Phillies fans successfully got David Herndon off Twitter. Looks like Michael Schwimer may be the next to want to leave as Phillies fans pounded him with insults after last night's loss in Atlanta. Some cuss words have been taken out to protect our younger readership. Be nice to him…we need him to get us […]
Impotence. The Philadelphia Phillies in a word, against a pitcher who had an 8+ ERA last night. Now how will they do against someone whose ERA is less than half that?! I'm lazy (and too angry about other crap) and don't feel like looking up numbers, so here is what Kevin Durso had to say […]
Finally something is changing: the Phillies are sitting Jimmy Rollins today in hopes of a better offensive output. Pete Orr, last night's hero gets Rollins' slot in the lineup but at second base as Galvis slides over to shortstop. Rollins is in a 3 for 32 skid, helping his batting average sit at .239 and […]
Vance Worley will be taking the mound again tonight against the Arizona Diamondbacks in Arizona for the last late late game until the Phillies head to Los Angeles in July. Do you think you can stay up for just ONE more game? The good news is, Hunter Pence is back. The bad news is, […]
