Philadelphia Phillies
The Phillies were simply looking to have fun coming into this series against the Minnesota Twins. As assumed by the fans, the entire Phils lineup sported high socks tonight in honor of Jim Thome. Whether that's true or not, it's certainly different. Also, a majority of the team wore Hunter Pence's t-shirts that read […]
Although they are sitting dead last in the NL East, the Phillies are not the worst team in baseball. Their 29-33 record is better than six other Major League teams. For instance, the Minnesota Twins are 24-35, they sit 8 1/2 games back in the AL Central and most likely will stay there. Tonight the […]
(Photo: Courtesy of @Michael_LeSage) Chase Utley will officially begin his rehab assignment tomorrow. Utley will DH for the Single-A Clearwater Threshers as they take on the Tampa Yankees. Utley most recently arrived in Clearwater and after a week of extended spring training, he seems ready to be put into real game situations. According to Todd […]
According to CSN's Jim Salisbury, the Phillies have made an offer to Cuban prospect Jorge Soler. Although the Phillies have made an offer, they do not appeal as the favorites for Soler's services. If the Phillies are serious about offering Soler any contract, it better be worth it. The Chicago Cubs and New York Yankees […]
Cliff Lee came into this rubber match hoping to earn his first win of the season. The Orioles had other plans for him and would show this Philadelphia team why they're in first place in the AL East. Baltimore scored first this afternoon with an RBI single from Ronnie Paulino, scoring Adam Jones. The Phillies […]
The Phillies finally won a game last night as they bested the Orioles, 9-6 to take game one of this three game set. The bats broke out pushing across nine runs on 12 hits, giving enough cushion room for Joe Blanton to get the win. Today, Vance Worley (3-2, 3.38 ERA) will make his second […]
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 […]
Another interleague series is underway between the Orioles and Phillies at Camden Yards. Joe Blanton, much like the Orioles started the season hot but has cooled off of late. Blanton has had four straight less than great starts, and was looking to have a better outing against Jake Arrieta. This game would be a "doozy," […]
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 […]
If there is anything I'm afraid of with this team, it's losing Cole Hamels (8-2, 2.81 ERA). Hamels hasbeen my favorite Phillie since he came up from the minors. The thought of him pitching in another uniform makes me cringe and today he'll be taking on the Los Angeles Dodgers. A team who is rumored […]
