Kyle Kendrick
Kyle Kendrick piched very well this afternoon against the Chicago Cubs, coming back from a horrid three-inning outing in Arizona last Monday in which he allowed seven earned runs on 11 hits, walking one and striking out one. This afternoon he allowed three runs (two earned) on five hits, striking out seven and walking one […]
Last night the Phillies rebounded from a bad loss on Friday night. Joe Blanton earned his second win of the year after the offense, led by Jimmy Rollins and Carlos Ruiz, scored five runs to give the Phils their 10th win of the year. Jimmy Rollins batted leadoff for the first time this year and […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) The Phils are 7-9 on the year. My panic level? Not so high, it's only April and there are still five months of baseball to play. My frustration level? Through the freakin' roof. Watching this team play over the past two weeks has been absolute torture. They can't hit to save their […]
Posted by Mike Frohwirth Even without All-Stars Chase Utley and Ryan Howard available, the Phillies are still a formidable team, and a playoff contender. Their starting rotation may very well be the best in the National League. Their bullpen is more than serviceable, their defense is above average, and Messrs. Shane Victorino and Hunter Pence are […]
(Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) Cliff Lee was being squeezed tonight, no doubt about that. In his first start of the 2012 season, the Pirates were really testing him by taking tons of pitches, and having the strikezone to their advantage. The only change the Phillies made in their lineup tonight was putting Laynce Nix at first base […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson Despite this series being the finale of spring training, it's still an exciting two-game exhibition series because it's being played at home, Citizens Bank Park. The Pirates have come to town for two nights before making their way back to Pittsburgh to take on the Phillies for Opening Day. Joe Blanton […]
Posted by: Erik Seybold Philliedelphia/Corey Shaw As reported by CSN's Jim Salisbury, MLB's Todd Zolecki, and Philly.com's Matt Gelb, the Phillies and righthander Kyle Kendrick have agreed on a two-year, $7.5 million contract extension. In the beginning of January, the Phillies and Kendrick avoided arbitration with a one-year, $3.585 million deal. The deal leaves Kendrick with […]
Kyle Kendrick and wife Stephenie LaGrossa have given birth to a daughter. It is the first child for Kendrick, spot-starter and reliever for the Phillies, and wife La Grossa of "Survivor" fame. Kyle Kendrick has been placed on paternity leave to be with his wife and Michael Schwimer has taken his place on the active roster.
Posted by Danielle Wilson The Mets were due to win a game, that much I know. They've lost 17 of their last 22 games, and lost the first two games of this series to the Phils, losing the series. Kyle Kendrick imploded in the first inning, to say the least. With the bases loaded and […]
Posted by Laurie Dougherty It is mid-August and the Philadelphia Phillies have had an amazing season thus far. They have arguably the best rotation in baseball. Following the games of August 17, 2011, the Phillies have an 8 ½ game lead on the Atlanta Braves in the National League East. Talk has surfaced in the […]
