Per Todd Zolecki, the Phillies will announce the lifting of the interim tag on Ryne Sandberg and he will be manager for the forseable future. Since Sandberg has taken over, they have gone 17-16 and for the most part have played better baseball even in the losses. This Mets series seems a good example where […]
Last night's loss didn't come much different than the 81 previous to it had this season. They played catch up all night, but the Phillies were never able to pull back even with the Mets. The reason the win was significant was it marked just the first time since 2002 that the Phillies would end […]
James Casey has yet to be a factor for the Philadelphia Eagles, despite being one of the team's marquee off-season free-agent signings. He was supposed to be one of the team's most impact free agent signings. However, through the Philadelphia Eagles first three games tight end/h-back James Casey has played in a total of eight […]

Offensiely, the Eagles must sustain longer drives or this could devolve into a long season for The Birds. Chip Kelly may gloss over the importance of time of possession, […]
It was announced last night that Kyle Kendrick will be shut down for the remainder of the 2013 season after a second opinion. It appears precautionary as Kendrick, at 182, has reached a career high in innings pitched. He started off really strong this season but a dreadful second half leaves him at 10-13, 4.70 […]
Some hadn't even gotten to their seats yet and David Wright made his return from a long stint on the disabled list with a two run blast which put Cole Hamels in a 3 run deficit before recording an out. Hamels got hit around a bit and let up six runs and while that doesn't […]
As announced yesterday, Yankees pitcher Andy Pettitte will once again be retiring. I imagine this time it is for good. I watched a few of his starts this season and no matter if he was good or bad, getting outs seemed like a bit of a struggle for him this season and while he may […]

Vick completed 13-30 passing for 201 yards, one touchdown, two interceptions and a fumble in a performance that was nowhere near as proficent as his numbers indicated. After a peerless […]

Standing currently at 71-81, the Phillies would have to go 10-0 the rest of the year to match their 2012 record. […]
The Phillies have hardly mentioned Michael Stutes' name in recent times. However – surprise – he has returned. According to Todd Zolecki of MLB.com, Stutes has been activated and will be available to pitch beginning tonight.
