Posted by Frank Klose Courtesy prorumors.com Buried in the "It's a Madd, Madd, World…" section of the New York Daily News, columnist Bill Madden calls the Phillies in "full panic mode" and "ready to make a pitch for Michael Young". Madden writes: "The likelihood that No. 3 hitter Chase Utley is going to miss the […]
Posted by Frank Klose Courtesy MLBlogs.com So, once again reports surfaced connecting the Philadelphia Phillies to Texas Rangers' infielder Michael Young. What would it take for the Phillies to acquire him? Here is what we know: 1) The Texas Rangers have already displaced their all-star infielder from second base and shortstop in recent years. Signing […]

(Photo by Kevin Durso/Philliedelphia) The Phillies chance to claim an early series vanished at the hands of the bullpen on Tuesday night. Wednesday night's game becomes the swing game. The Phillies (1-1) may have a bitter taste of defeat in […]
Off days are becoming more and more enjoyable when you talk about the Phillies. After getting swept by the Braves this past weekend the Phillies keep sinking deeper and deeper into the cellar. 11 games under .500 and God only knows how far back in the division they are, they will look for some positive […]
The Phillies snapped their eight-game losing streak last night with a 7-3 win over the Giants in last night's series opener. The Phils got a jump start on Barry Zito, who allowed five earned runs in four innings. Carlos Ruiz and Michael Young went deep last night. Young went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run. John […]
It's just looking darker and darker for the Phillies, who have lost four straight – four out of five since coming back from the All-Star break. Hoping that they would have a good series in St. Louis, the Phils have been shut down completely in the first two games. Now three games under .500 once […]
After a much needed break this week due to the All-Star Game, the Phillies (48-48) will look to prove that they can be buyers this come July 31st and make a push for a postseason spot. After finishing with a extremely dissapointing 81-81 record last season, the Phillies – now with new assets in Michael […]
The Phillies are currently 4-2 on this home stand – two from Atlanta and two from Washington. With last night's loss the Phillies fell back to 44-47 and remained 7 1/2 games out of first in the NL East. Cliff Lee was suprisingly hittable last night, allowing four solo home runs (two sets of back-to-backs) […]
Despite Chase Utley's two home runs last night it was not enough for the Phillies, who fell to the Dodgers in walk-off fashion. Cliff Lee gave up three runs on four hits through seven innings last night and struck out 10 hitters. He was on the hook for the loss, but with a Jimmy Rollins […]
After last night's disasterous loss to the Padres, it really honestly puzzles me how there can still be any faith left in this team. Cliff Lee was brilliant, allowing just two earned runs (inherited) over eight innings of work. He didn't get the win however, despite striking out seven. Even with a 3-0 lead late […]
