Well, the MLB season is over. With the season coming to an end, it's time to look back and hand out the awards, predict the playoffs, and lament the Phillies not being in the post-season for the first time in a half decade. Here's my awards: AL MVP: If Miguel Cabrera does not win unanimously, […]
At the All-Star break, at 37-50, any honest broker would have said the Phillies were done. Oh sure, the 2010 team wasn't in first at the break, but they were breaking .500. That this team got to 81-81 is a minor miracle of it's own. What we should make of it isn't hard though. On […]

That's a wrap. The Phillies ended the 2012 season this afternoon against the National League East Champion Nationals. Cliff Lee and Edwin Jackson squared off, both looking to end the regular season on a good note. Throughout the past two Nationals-Phillies series, Darin Ruf has sent home almost every single run for the Phils. In […]
Anyone still watching out there? The Nationals have clinched the National League East. All that's left to do now is finish these next two games. For the Phillies, all they're trying to do is end the season with a few more wins. Tyler Cloyd was originally scheduled to start tonight's ballgame in Washington, but due […]
The Phillies just announced they hired Bart Braun as Special Assistant to the GM. Braun is best known as a scout for the Tampa Bay Rays. Tampa Bay has been the gold standard of good scouting ever since their run to the 2008 World Series. It's tough to argue bringing someone on board who has […]
