Posted by Stephen Gallo The oldest team in baseball keeps on living up to their title. As posted by our very own Adam Gonsiewski, here, yesterday it was announced that Shane Victorino (calf strain) and Joe Blanton (elbow soreness) will be placed on the DL. It looks like Vance Worley will eventually make his […]
Posted by Mike Frohwirth (On Tuesday night, Phillies' Manager Charlie Manuel chose to leave closer Ryan Madson in the bullpen, while the St. Louis Cardinals beat Danys Baez and J.C. Romero for a walkoff victory. In at least one alternate universe, events played out differently.) *** "The reverse side also has a reverse side."- Japanese […]
Posted by Mike Frohwirth On Saturday, we examined some possible courses of action that the Phillies could take, assuming that the world will come to an end on Saturday, May 21st.

Posted by Mike Frohwirth The Twitterverse has been buzzing with Phillies news this weekend, almost all of it positive. Chase Utley played a semi-simulated game today! Utley played a few innings in the field, ran the bases, and batted against pitching coach Rich Dubee. The Phillies will see how Utley feels tomorrow, before determining the […]
Posted by Mike Frohwirth The Phillies are off to a great start, playing .692 ball (18W, 8L), good for the best record in the National League. With identical records at home and on the road, the Phils lead the NL East by one and one-half games. Philadelphia has been succesful in fattening their record against […]
