Philliedelphia/Frank KloseIt's been six long months. Six excruciating months filled with pessimism surrounded by injuries, optimism surrounded by new acquitations, and eagerness to get back on the field and go for it all once again. Today is Opening Day, the slate is clean, Spring Training stats don't matter, the pages have turned and the mindsets are […]
Photo: Fangirl In Training According to Fox Sports' Jon Morosi, the Phillies may be interested in utility infielder Mike Fontenot. The 31 year-old Fontenot was released by the San Francisco Giants on March 30, 2012 after posting a .278 avg in 13 Cactus League games. The Phillies have been searching for infield depth all Spring […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson Despite this series being the finale of spring training, it's still an exciting two-game exhibition series because it's being played at home, Citizens Bank Park. The Pirates have come to town for two nights before making their way back to Pittsburgh to take on the Phillies for Opening Day. Joe Blanton […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson Happy last day of spring training! And what a great last day it was for starter Cliff Lee and the Phillies' offense. In the beginning/middle of the game, anyway. On this Sunday afternoon, the last game of spring training for this Philadelphia team was played against the Atlanta Braves at the […]
Posted by Erik Seybold. (Photo courtesy of Lindsey Crew)So the Phillies lost their last home game of Spring yesterday. Not the best note to leave Clearwater with, but there is still one last game to be played. The Phillies will head up to Lake Buena Vista to play the Braves at Champion Stadium. It's been a […]
Posted by Erik Seybold (Photo Courtesy of Lindsey Crew) Yesterday's loss was not only annoying, but the game itself was just plain old boring. The Phillies lost the nearly four hour game to the Yankees, 13-9 and brought their Spring record down to 12-15-3. Today, Roy Halladay (1-1, 5.40 ERA) will make his final Grapefruit […]
Posted by Erik Seybold The Phillies will play the Yankees for the final time this Spring when they travel to George M. Steinbrenner Field tonight. With the rosters being shrunken quickly, the Phillies will make most of their cuts by the end of the night. Yesterday, Juan Pierre was named to the 40-man roster. Pierre […]
Posted by Erik Seybold The Phillies will take on the Twins in Fort Myers this afternoon and Vance Worley (1-2, 2.81 ERA) will get the start. Worley will be making his fifth start of the Spring and will be looking to follow up on his recent successful starts. In his last start, on Friday against […]
Posted by Erik Seybold The Phillies got back on the winning track this afternoon, taking a 5-4 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Phillies will play the Pirates five games in a row next week. Two for the On-Deck Series at Citizens Bank Park, and three for season Opener in Pittsburgh. Today, Cliff Lee was […]
Posted by Rich Wilkins Since the announcement that Chase Utley probably won't be on the Opening Day version of the Phillies, the panic has been measurable in Phillies-World. I've heard people say Galvis will be fine, or he's a bum, that Amaro screwed up trading Wilson Valdez, that Utley screwed this team by not having […]
