(Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew) According to the Philadelphia Inquirer's Matt Gelb, Phillies righthander Mike Stutes will undergo arthroscopic shoulder surgery on Tuesday. Stutes will undergo the surgery to "clean out fraying from his shoulder". Although there is no belief that there is serious structural damage in his rotator cuff, the surgery will tell for sure. The 25 […]
The Phillies were unable to pull off a sweep against the Rockies, but they still won two games out of three. I guess it's good enough, but now the real task is at hand. The Phillies are opening up a weekend series with the Tampa Rays this evening. The Rays (38-31) sit 3 1/2 games […]
After dropping the first two games of this series in Toronto, the Phillies will turn to Kyle Kendrick in an effort to prevent the sweep. Yesterday was just another example of bad luck and bad baseball. Cliff Lee had everything going for him. A nice lead, a good pitch count, and a chance to finally […]
Well it hasn't happened yet. Cliff Lee is still winless. We'll get short and to the point today. The Phillies scored five runs, including a three-run shot by John Mayberry Jr. in the third inning. Cliff Lee allowed three runs on a season-high 12 hits over seven innings against the Blue Jays today. Lee had […]
(Philliedelphia: Steve Trapani) The news is getting better for the Phillies. Chase Utley and Ryan Howard are both improving during their rehab stints down in Clearwater. Chase Utley has been playing second base for the last few days and each game extending his playing time. Howard has been hitting and doing fielding drills during his rehab. […]
Good news, Roy Halladay's latissimus dorsi muscle is healing a little quicker than expected: 11 Days after setting a three week timetable, Doc has already started throwing. While it is absolutely best to take it slow, it's great to see that Doc is already improving. The last time he pitched in a game was May […]
It seems like the only way we're going to be able to beat teams is by scoring a lot of runs. It took 9 last night to beat the Twins and they still almost caught up to us. It's a good thing that the bats are working, but at the same time it's a bad […]
Yes I said miracle. It's that bad right now that the Phillies need a miracle to show some signs that they are not cellar dwellers. The Phillies have dropped from 2 1/2 games out of first to 9 1/2 in just ten games. Not to mention they have lost 9 out of their last 10 […]
Roy Halladay has been out for two weeks since leaving his start against the Cardinals early on May 27. The Phillies are 4-10 since then. (Philliedelphia/Kevin Durso) When Roy Halladay joined a crowded DL two weeks ago, the Phillies had to know they were in for the biggest test of their five-year reign in the […]
Although they are sitting dead last in the NL East, the Phillies are not the worst team in baseball. Their 29-33 record is better than six other Major League teams. For instance, the Minnesota Twins are 24-35, they sit 8 1/2 games back in the AL Central and most likely will stay there. Tonight the […]
