Philliedelphia/Frank KloseIt's been six long months. Six excruciating months filled with pessimism surrounded by injuries, optimism surrounded by new acquitations, and eagerness to get back on the field and go for it all once again.

With the rosters being shrunken quickly, the Phillies will make most of their cuts by the end of the night. Yesterday, Juan Pierre was named to the 40-man roster. Pierre […]
Posted by Erik Seybold Courtesy mlblogs.com The Phillies have finally added some infield depth to their organization. This afternoon, they signed seven-year veteran Joe Thurston to a minor-league deal. With the absences of Chase Utley, Ryan Howard, and now Michael Martinez (broken foot), the Phillies have little to none depth in their infield. The 32 […]
