Roy Halladay Placed On 15-Day DL; Joe Savery Recalled To Take Place On Roster

We all knew it was coming. Roy Halladay has landed on the 15-day DL with imflammation in his right shoulder. In response to this move, the Phillies have recalled RHP Joe Savery to take the spot on the roster. Halladay has struggled immensely in his last two starts, allowing a total of 17 runs in […]

Phillies Weekly Preview, 5/6-5/12

The most interesting thing I saw at the game on Satuday was Cracker Jack Man, the best vendor in the stadium. Well, that week sucked. The Phillies are down to 14-18, and frankly look like a disaster in the making. This week could get really ugly. Philadelphia Phillies (14-18 NL East-3) @ San Francisco Giants (19-12, […]

Doc, Hurting the Team, and Chasing the Ring

Photo by Rich Wilkins Roy Halladay is one of the best players of the last 15 years, if not the best pitcher of that time. No one will argue that. The man was putting up sub-3.00 ERA's, 200 innings, 15 wins, and lots of complete games per year, on a team that never reached the […]

Don’t Get Too Excited About Doc’s Replacement

Morgan on-deck yesterday. By Rich Wilkins I got the texts yesterday- "So Morgan or Biddle replaces Halladay now?" Uh, no. Let's review. Neither is on the 40 man roster, the first issue. Secondly, I doubt the Phillies are trying to fill that 40th spot right now, it takes away flexibility in other areas. Finally, there's […]

Doc Shelled In Series Finale With Marlins, To Have Tests On Shoulder; DL Likely

I'll be short, sweet and to the point about today's game. ROY HALLADAY AND THE PHILLIES GOT KILLED. Roy Halladay got creamed for the second straight start and the Phillies were unable to mount anything to match the Marlins' 14 runs scored, 9 of which were against Halladay in less than three innings. Kevin Slowey, […]

Roy Halladay Seeks Redemption, Series Win In Sunday Finale With Kevin Slowey, Marlins

(Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew) The Phillies went back to the pathetic bunch of tee-ball-skilled hitters last night (no offense to those of you who are parents of a tee-baller). Really? One hit against the Miami Marlins? C'mon, guys what happened to the can of whoop a** you put on them in the first two games? Cole […]

Phillies Look To Give Pettibone Another Win Against Marlins In Game Two

Last night was an imrovement from the series from Hell in Cleveland. Kyle Kendrick was yet again solid in a seven-inning bout against the Marlins. KK registered his second win of the year last night as he allowed two earned on seven hits while striking out five. Bringing his ERA down to 2.42, Kendrick maintains […]
