(Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) The Phils are 7-9 on the year. My panic level? Not so high, it's only April and there are still five months of baseball to play. My frustration level? Through the freakin' roof. Watching this team play over the past two weeks has been absolute torture. They can't hit to save their […]
If you believe what you read, the Phillies haven't had and real negotiations with Cole Hamels and his agent about a long term deal. No progress has been made. Come November, he will be a free agent. He'll get at least a six year offer, and probably at least $130 million on the market, and […]
Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani It had been 13 games since the Phillies had lost a game at Petco Park. But as we know, all streaks come to an end sometime. The Padres routed the Phils 5-1 last night, winning their first game at home against the Phillies for the first time since 2008. Roy Halladay wasn't as […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew) It never ends, does it? Cliff Lee has been placed on the DL with a left oblique strain retroactive to Thursday. Lee injured his oblique in the 10th inning. Lee is coming off of a spectacular 10 shut out-inning outing against the Giants. The Phillies ended up losing 1-0 in the 11th […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) The Phillies have already won the first two of four games against the Padres, totalling their stretch of consecutive wins at Petco Park at 13. The Padres, having only scored just one run during the first two games, will have no easy task tonight either. Reason why? Roy Halladay. Tonight, Doc (3-0, 1.17 […]
The Phillies have won 12 consecutive games at Petco Park in San Diego. Currently, that is the longest active winning streak for any team at any set ball park. Usually Petco Park is some what of a re-boost period for the Phillies. Coming into a four-game series, the Phillies are hoping to pull their heads […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) The series is split one a piece thus far. Roy Halladay beat out Tim Lincecum and the Giants 5-2 Monday night while Madison Bumgarner and the Giants' bats beat out Joe Blanton and held the Phillies to just two runs last night. Tonight is the series finale and the Phillies are looking […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) It's going to be a long week with these games starting at 10:15 PM ET. I didn't stay up to see Papelbon close out the 9th inning, but I did stay awake for Doc's outing. Doc was fantastic last night in the Phillies 5-2 win over San Francisco. Doc earned his third […]
(Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew) The Phillies have been outscored by the Mets 10-2 through the first two games of this weekend series. The Fightins dropped game one, 5-2 on Friday night and were blanked yesterday afternoon, 5-0. With the Mets taking the first two games, they have already won the series match up, their first series win […]
"This Dickey's kinda tricky" mused Gary Matthews in the broadcast booth. It was either that, or the Phillies offense just did not show up, in any organized fashion. But, you may have been watching the Flyers' playoff game anyway. Thanks to a Slingbox, a laptop, and extra cable boxes I got to follow both. The […]
