Vance Worley
Posted by Danielle Wilson Courtesy of Marc Serota/Getty Images The Phils and Fish kicked off a three-game series tonight in Florida with Vancey Pants Worley on the mound against the right-handed Ricky Nolasco.

Amaro told […]
Posted by Mike Frohwirth After Monday's win over the Washington Nationals, the Phillies optioned RHP Vance Worley to the Lehigh Valley IronPigs (AAA). A corresponding move has not yet been announced. Is this move meant to send a message to Worley, who recently complained to the press about his usage? Doubtful. After his start on […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson Vancey pants Worley hasn't allowed more than two earned runs to score in any of his four major league starts. Vance has never faced the Reds before, so I was a bit curious to see how this game would go for him. The answer to my own question: not bad! Vance […]

Despite having much in their favor, the Phillies did anything but cruise […]
