Howard himself was effective, going 2 for 4 with a double. There were two major problems with last night's despicable loss: 1) The lineup was constructed out […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Kevin Durso) Yesterday was just pathetic. Seriously, you have to give an effort to lose like that. The Phils had the series in the bag until the 9th inning of yesterday's game that ended with a Mets walk-off win. The Phillies are looking to turn a new direction this weekend as they head into the […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) Well I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but I guess it won't hurt. According to MLB's Todd Zolecki, Ryan Howard is likely to start tomorrow's game vs the Atlanta Braves. The Phillies will open a three-game home stand before headed into the All-Star break. The […]
Photo: Philliedelphia/ Lindsey Crew It has been reported by multiple sources that Roy Halladay is progressing very well, and should begin a rehab assignment during the All-Star break. He has been throwing off the mound, and will throw a bullpen session, reports Matt Gelb of the Inquirer. GM Ruben Amaro Jr. is looking to set […]
The Phillies are 10 games under .500 for the first time since June of 2002. Damn. There's not much to say besides the Phillies need a freaking miracle to head to the postseason, but if they keep playing this way they may just have to give up and become sellers. After being destroyed by the Mets […]
Posted by Mike Frohwirth The internets have been rife with talk about the Phillies organization's recent decision to "give up on the 2012 season." Many "Phillies fans" seem rather eager to bury the team, and to proceed to dance on their metaphorical graves. But has the Phillies' organization really "given up?" Let's look at the Phillies' […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) Well I guess the Phillies are sellers this year. According to CBS' Jon Heyman, the Phillies have begun to call other Major League teams regarding trade interest in lefthander Cole Hamels. Hamels, 28, is in his last year of his contract with the Phillies and if he is not traded or not […]
Well last night wasn't the start we were looking for. Cliff Lee was lit up for six earned and the Phils only produced two runs themselves. It wasn't a good game at all, and for Cliff Lee it hasn't been a good season at all. The Marlins now hold a 4-3 record against the Phillies […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew) Well hopefully this will chipper you up after tonight's game. Roy Halladay threw 33 pitches during a bullpen session today, working on all of his pitches. Halladay has been sidelined with a strained lat muscle since May 29 and was put in "shutdown mode" for three weeks. Halladay was expected to miss […]
With last night's game being postponed, the Phillies will play a day-night double header on Sunday to finish the series with the Rays. Today, which was set to be game two, will be game one and Kyle Kendrick is on the hill for the Phils. Cliff Lee will start in game two of tomorrow's double […]
