Philadelphia Phillies
Although they couldn't seal the sweep, the Phillies are coming off of another series win. Their second in a row. On Wednesday, Cliff Lee was fantastic over eight innings. The offense, on the other hand, was not so fantastic. They were only able to push one run across the plate and it cost them in […]
According to CSN's Jim Salisbury, Phillies outfield prospect Tyson Gillies has been suspended for violating team rules. Gillies was traded by the Mariners to the Phillies along with Phillippe Aumount, and J.C. Ramirez as part of the three-team trade that sent Cliff Lee to Seattle and brought Roy Halladay to Philadelphia. It is unclear what it is […]
It's been noted since Spring Training that Cole Hamels wants a six-year contract wherever he goes. According to reports from FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal and ESPN's Jayson Stark, the Phillies are ready to give Hamels a six-year deal. The reportedly proposed deal is reported to be worth more than San Francisco Giants Matt Cain's five-year […]

Roy Halladay made his return to baseball tonight after missing 42 days total with his latissimus dorsi strain. He did so against Stephen Fife, a 25-year-old making his major league debut for the sidelined Chad Billingsley. Much like they've been doing more of recently, the Phillies scored first. Jimmy Rollins scored in the top of […]
These late night games can really get weird. Joe Blanton opened up a series in Los Angeles with a whale of an effort (unintentional weight joke, you're lookin' good, Joe) to shut down the Dodgers' lineup for the most part. The leaders in the National League West and the bottom feeders of the National League […]
After winning their first series in nearly a month, the Phillies are over in the West Coast for six games. They'll split the next six games between the Dodgers and the Giants. Off to a good start in the second-half, the Phillies will look to remain in a winning state as they near the July […]
Oh boy. According to CBS Sports' Jon Heyman, the Phillies are plannin to offer lefthander Cole Hamels a five-year, $120MM deal. The very same deal that they signed Cliff Lee with back in December of 2010. An offer of $120 million over five years, which was the very deal Cliff Lee signed with the Phillies, […]
Hard to not see this one coming. According to FOX Sports' Jon Morosi, Phillies centerfielder Shane Victorino has a lot of teams who have interest in his services. According to him, Victorino may be the first to go this season. Something that should grab your attention: A high-ranking executive with one club predicted that Victorino […]
