The Phillies are 24-26 at Memorial Day, so I think giving the team a grade is easy- it's a C. Now though, grades for the players- POSITION PLAYERS: Jimmy Rollins– Jimmy's line of .256/.300/.385/.685 is neither good, nor is it terrible, it's extremely mediocre. His 14 doubles and 18 extra-base hits isn't bad, but his […]
People are so negative about the Phillies these days but there's one thing that everyone needs to remember: It's still early. The Phillies could probably go to the World Series again if things all pan out. Being all negative and saying the team isn't good enough is no help at all. Here are my […]
Since Doug Collins decided to step down as the head coach of the Philadelphia 76ers over a month ago, there have been many names tossed around as to who will be his replacement. I wrote last week about the possibility of Houston Rockets' assistant coach Kelvin Sampson becoming the next Sixers head coach, but since […]
Today's ballgame inspired me to finally write what's been brewing in my head all season about your 2013 Philadelphia Phillies. Little mini rants would come into my head with every awful loss but they'd salvage some of my optimism with some good games here and there. Before it sounds like I'm going to fly off […]
Harry Kalas would not be enjoying this season. The Phillies are not a good baseball team. Today's 6-1 loss was absolutely ugly, and dropped them to 24-26 on the season, third in the NL East on a day they could have pulled into a tie for second, and now sit seven games out of first […]
The Phillies got even last night. Domonic Brown led the offense, hitting a home run in the second inning and driving in another run later in the eighth. The bats weren't the only ones who helped win last night – the bullpen had a good part in it too. The Phillies would use Bastardo and Durbin […]
When Michael Martinez was called up to replace Chase Utley on the Phillies roster Thursday, there was pure outrage from the entire Phillies phanbase. Twitter almost broke. Why the editor-in-chief of this very website was sent into a psychotic rage. I think the igniting of torches and the sharpening of pitchforks was a bit much. […]
The first meeting of the season between the Phils and Nats didn't go exactly as planned last night. Kyle Kendrick didn't have his stuff and was all over the place and thanks to a Ben Revere goof, the Nationals gained a lead in the fifth inning and ran away with it, 5-2. Taking the first […]
On the two year anniversary of his pitching victory in the 19 inning classic over the Cincinnati Reds, (well technically tomorrow is the anniversary but the game started today in 2011), former Phillies utility infielder Wilson Valdez has signed on with the Camden Riversharks of the Atlantic League. This comes after two failed attempts to […]
Two young pitchers, both having recently become very formidable hurlers for their respective teams, took the mound for the first matchup between the Phillies and Nationals. Each would be taking on two of the worst offenses in all of baseball. For these reasons, we were destined to see an entertaining pitcher's duel between righties Kyle […]
