Well this just ruined my weekend. According to numerous sources, Phillies second baseman Freddy Galvis could possibly have a Pars Fracture in his back. Galvis, who was put on the 15-day DL with a lower back strain, could possibly be in a back brace for at least 6 weeks before beginning rehab. A Pars Fracture […]
The Phillies will look to erase the recent sweep by the Dodgers tonight and this weekend as they embark on an eight-game Interleague Play road trip. Having lost six straight games to end their depressing home stand, maybe a little Interleague Play for the Phils will be able to fix that – hopefully. Tonight, The […]
Vance Worley (3-2, 3.07 ERA) has missed action for the past three weeks and today he'll return to the mound to open up a four-game set with the Los Angeles Dodgers. The best team in the MLB. Worley was sidelined on the DL with elbow tenderness three weeks ago and later discovered that he had […]
Today Joe Blanton will aim to make right on the mound as he takes on the Miami Marlins. Just a few weeks ago Joe Blanton was pitching as if he were a Cy Young candidate, but in his last three starts he's been back down to Earth and has not been effective. With the series […]
It's not hard to tell that the NL East isn't going to be an easy breeze for the Phillies this year. The Nationals are serious contenders and not the joke of the league anymore, the Marlins are re-stocked and re-branded, the Braves haven't really changed a whole lot, and the Mets – well – they're […]
The Phillies won last night's series opener 6-4 and today they'll play in an effort to move 4 games above .500 for the first time this season. Cole Hamels (8-1, 2.43 ERA) has the chance to become the first nine-game winner this afternoon as he takes on the Marlins for the second time this season. […]
Jose Contreras is going to the DL and it is retroactive to his appearance in the 7th inning of tonight's game. He is scheduled for an MRI this weekend. Conteras could not even record an out before falling to the ground in pain and agony after throwing a pitch. At first the Phillies reported that […]
It took 50 long, long years but finally the New York Mets have a no-hitter. Lefty Johan Santana tossed the franchise-first as well as career-first no-no tonight against the St. Louis Cardinals. Backed by 8 runs, Santana threw 134 pitches, a career-huigh, to make history. The Mets are now 29-23 on the year. Tonight and […]
I'm feeling lucky today. My high school graduation practice went smoothly, I avoided a car accident on the way home and I won $3 from the lottery. The only thing that blows is that I could be at this game, but I couldn't get off of work. Hopefully most of my luck is with Kyle […]
