Spring Training
(Photo: Phillies.com) If you're tired of the offseason already, you have just four months to wait for the Phillies to get back in action. This afternoon the Phillies released their 2013 Spring Training schedule. Pitchers and catchers will report to Clearwater on February 12th, while the first full-squad workout will take place on February 15th. […]
It's good news for Chase Utley and the Phillies. The second baseman will be headed to Clearwater tomorrow to begin rehab. The Phillies are in need of Utley's bat and this is a good start for the team and Utley. Utley will participate in extended spring training games down there. But what exactly are extended spring […]
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 Rich Wilkins In Dom Brown's first game for the Iron Pigs after being sent down, he answered any questions about whether or not he'll give it a good go there. Brown hit a homer, and went 2-for-3 in his first game back. Putting his major and minor league numbers together for the […]
Posted By Erik Seybold. The Phillies are now at a .500 level in the Grapfruit League. After yesterday's, 7-0 shutout win over the Toronto Blue Jays, the Phillies will host the Houston Astros this afternoon. Cliff Lee threw two innings, allowing just two hits, one walk, and a strike out. Along with Lee's efforts, the […]

Steinbrenner Field to play the second of three consecutive games against the Yankees. Today, Roy Halladay (2011: 19-6, 2.35 ERA) will take the hill and make the start against the Yankees. […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson What you see here is Raul Ibanez ruining the Comcast broadcast. In a Yankees uniform. Jerk. On a serious note, it was awesome seeing Raul with New York. Good for him. Wednesday's game was essentially a pre-pre-season game. Still a win, but, today's the day that *meaningful* games begin. Let spring […]
Posted by Erik Seybold The Phillies are done B.S-ing around with their little workouts. It's time to start playing some baseball! The Phillies will host the Florida State Seminoles tomorrow afternoon at Bright House Field in Clearwater @ 1:05 PM ET. I honestly don't know if it's being broadcast on TV, but I know it […]
Posted by Erik Seybold Yesterday afternoon, the Phillies stated that Ryan Howard would be making a trip to Baltimore to see a specialist for a "routine checkup" related to his left Achilles'. Although the Phillies said it wasn't a "setback", many of us wondered what was really going on. Well today it was cleared up a […]
Posted by Erik Seybold. Photo Courtesy of (@ryanlawrence21)This morning, Roy Halladay took the hill to throw some batting practice to his teammates. At the plate stood Placido Polanco, Shane Victorino, and John Mayberry. No word on how the three did, but I'm sure Halladay tallied higher. Cliff Lee is back on the hill after suffering […]
