Ethan Martin gets another crack at the Braves, the team that roughed him up some in his major league debut. Martin has a tough act to follow after Cole Hamels' iron man 122 pitch outing last night and looks to improve on an outing which he won but also labored in. Turner Field is also […]
The greatest shortstop in club history.photo by Richard Wilkins Jr. Phillies fans love to get mad at Jimmy Rollins. It's easy. He makes good money. He will open his mouth. His can be very brash. That's Jimmy Rollins though. Let me remind you what else is Jimmy Rollins. World Champion, National League Champion twice, NL […]
From the Phillies Facebook Charlie Manuel gets ripped for lots of things- playing Michael Martinez, bad in-game moves, not being willing to move certain players in the order, and more. He mostly deserves those shots, and soon those things will end- I see no way that Charlie is back in 2014. With his contract running […]
Welcome to Around the Net, a weekly look through linkage at the Philadelphia Flyers and other news from around the NHL. Fight no more Jody Shelley retired from the NHL and became a coach with Columbus: [Philly.com] [Broad Street Hockey] Devil of a time The Devils are bankrupt and the Sixers owner might buy them:[Puck […]
Photo Credit: Steve Trapani In my past few game recaps, I've noted that the most exciting thing to watch in the upcoming Phillies games would be the young stars finally getting their opportunities. Tonight, Cody Asche gave fans something to smile about. After a near two-hour rain delay, the Phillies and Braves finally got under […]
After being designated for assignment last week and refusing Triple-A assignment the Phillies cut ties with outfielder Laynce Nix. It was a disappointing two seasons with the Phillies organization for Nix who hit just .211/.270/.331 in his time with the club. Also two rehab notes: Roy Halladay takes a huge step and will pitch this […]
The Phillies are in the middle of a horrid 4-17 stretch since the All Star break which began with wonder about what happens comes the trade deadline and currently stands with loud screams of "When is this going to stop?". Tonight they start a three game series against a hot Atlanta Braves team that has […]
Nearly four months after the position was vacated, the 76ers have finally found their next head coach. Brett Brown, formerly an assistant coach with the San Antonio Spurs, has accepted a 4-year contract offer fr0m the Sixers. He will be the team's 8th head coach in 10 years. On paper, the hiring makes […]
The Phillies stink. They know they stink too. They are now far enough under .500 to assume they won't get back there, and far enough out of the race to laugh at any talk of the standings. In essence, 2013 is over. With Chase Utley re-signed, there's nothing more to happen this year, other than […]
Since there were no good images from today's game, I figured Cliff Lee's disappointment would say it all. Assuming you had the same prediction as any other baseball fan for today's Phillies-Nationals matchup, you were correct. The Stephen Strausberg we've seen dominate teams across the league appeared today in Nationals Park, and handed the Phillies […]
