David Herndon
Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew Ah, finally, the last game of spring training. It certainly didn't feel like spring at Citizens Bank Park on this chilly evening. But, the buzz of baseball in the air is sure to warm your heart. Much the same of last night's game in this on-deck exhibition series, the fans were able to […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson I don't even want to talk about what I just watched. I didn't even bother to include a picture today. It was just…bad. Sure, it looked promising from the start: Cole Hamels, the best lefty in the National League against Jon Lester, whose stats are very similar to Cole's this season. […]
Posted by Mike Frohwirth Kyle Kendrick In a pair of connected moves, the Phillies announced that RHP Kyle Kendrick will start in Pittsburgh on Saturday, and that LHP Mike Zagurski will replace optioned RHP Vance Worley on the MLB roster. Why not just keep Vance Worley around? Worley is the fifth-best (healthy) starter in the […]

Todd Zolecki tweets that Roy Oswalt's back is still bothering him and he may be headed to the disabled list. Yesterday, some reports surfaced that catcher Carlos Ruiz had […]

Posted by Frank Klose Courtesy http://www.interstate-guide.com Ahh… finally. David Herndon will be heading up 476 to Lehigh Valley where he will finally experience life in AAA for the first time in his career. When the Phillies plucked him out of the Angels system (back when he was called Kenny Herndon) he had gone no higher […]
Posted by Mike Frohwirth Closer Jose Contreras joined previous closer Brad Lidge on the Disabled List on Sunday, further depleting the Phillies' bullpen. It's easy to look at Contreras' workload over the past week (four appearances in five days/five appearances in seven days), and conclude that Phillies' Manager Charlie Manuel overworked the veteran reliever, which […]
