There haven't been many reasons to get excited over Phillies (58-96) baseball this season and with just one week to go in the season, that really hasn't changed. Saturday, however, presents a unique opportunity. The Phillies have a chance to end the Nationals (78-75) playoff hopes for good with a win on Saturday. And they […]

If this is how the Nationals are going to play in the postseason, then the rest of the National League playoff contenders better watch out. The Phillies fell victim again to the Nats tonight in the final home game of the 2012 season. The Phils may be looking powerful as of late, but they were […]
Last night's victory over the Washington Nationals postponed their celebration for another day.

For a team that's 19.5 games back of their weekend adversary, they sure didn't play like it. Kyle Kendrick has left us Phillies fans speechless lately.

The Phillies will be home for the next three days before embarking on a seven-game road trip. Tonight, they open up their second series of […]
Let me get this out of the way. In the summer of 2010, when there was a rumor that the Phillies may trade Jayson Werth, I was on the record wanting him out the door. B.J. Upton and Wade Davis worked for me. Get Werth's inconsistencies out of town for some value, and don't let […]
During the 8th inning of last night's game, the Mets catcher Josh Thole took a Ty Wigginton elbow to the head on a play at the plate. Thole held onto the ball and Wigginton was out. More and more ss we have seen with head injuries in sports, they are taken very seriously and have […]
