Why not just keep Vance Worley around? Worley is the fifth-best (healthy) starter in the […]

A player who will most likely be remembered for an infamous injury in the playoffs, Patrick Thoresen was a respectable 4th liner for the Flyers during the latter part of the 2007-2008 NHL season.

Posted By Christina Angelos Courtesy of GCobb.com   The Phillies still won the series by taking 2 out of 3 after the Mets avoiding a sweep. You may need to know: if you remember at this time last year we were losing series against the Mets, however, this year it’s change, Phillies have taken all […]

Posted by Danielle Wilson The Phillies headed up to Flushing, New York to visit the LOLMets for the first time this season. Roy Oswalt took the mound coming off of his first loss at Citizens Bank Park, which was his second of the season. The lineup gave little Roy a little help, first scoring Carlos […]
