NL East
On October 7, 2011 the Philadelphia Phillies played in what could be their final "golden era" game. Best friends Chris Carpenter and Roy Halladay squared off in an epic Game 5 of the NLDS in an effort to push their teams to the next stage of the postseason. Carpenter was able to fend off Halladay […]
Photo Courtesy: Philly.com Remember when David Akers left a huge billboard for all of Philadelphia to see when he moved on and signed a deal with the San Francisco 49ers? Well Shane Victorino has followed him in that way. Along with renting out a space in the Philadelphia Daily News, the former-Phillie now Dodger Shane […]
Cole Hamels was completely dominant last night as he shut out the Braves for his first complete game shut out since Game 3 of the 2010 NLDS. Hamels earned his 12th win of the year as he allowed just five hits while striking out six. Hamels evened up the series with the Braves at one-a-peice […]
Last night was just another example of the 2012 Phillies. Poor play, no drive to play for win and the inability to hit with runners in scoring position. Vance Worley allowed four earned runs on six hits through 3 2/3 innings, but left early with what was later diagnosed by Charlie Manuel as "stomach issues". […]
The Phillies are finally out of last place. Although they don't hold sole possession of the cellar, they still remain 10 games under .500 and 16 games back in the division. While sitting 12 1/2 games back in the Wild Card. There is a chance that the Phillies could pull a miracle run. But that […]
I always say the best way to turn a losing streak around is to trade 2/3 of your outfield. The home team has certainly shown up the past two games and they send Cole Hamels to the mound tonight to complete the sweep. I really want this one, myself. The Nationals got under my skin […]
The Phillies may have traded two-thirds of their outfield yesterday after a dismal first-half of the season, resulting in a fire sale in the Phillie's front office, but they came right out of the gates last night and pounced on Stephen Strasburg to take game one of this three game set. After an 8-0 victory […]
According to CBS sports' Danny Knobler, the Cincinnati Reds are still interested in Phillies center fielder Shane Victorino. The Reds continue to search for a leadoff hitter as the hours tick down to Tuesday's 4 p.m. (ET) non-waiver trade deadline, sources say. Shane Victorino of the Phillies has been their top target, but the price has […]
It seems like Joe Blanton will be moving back to the American League according to numerous reports. According to a source coming from MASN's Roch Kubatko says that the Phillies have faxed righthander Joe Blanton's health records to the Baltimore Orioles' orthopedist. Blanton has been the talk of the town today, as have many of […]
Yep. You read that right. This game is one of two pontential games that can and will decide if the Phillies will continue to play for a playoff spot – or – if they will sell house by Tuesday. Ruben Amaro Jr. said yesterday that "'If we get swept here it will be daunting. The […]
