So I am getting something I want. According to Jon Heyman of CBS Sports, the Phillies are about to acquire outfielder Chris Dickerson from the Balitmore Orioles, who was designated for assignment by the Orioles this weekend. Here is what I wrote just a couple days ago about Dickerson: Chris Dickerson, Baltimore OriolesDickerson was designated […]
Last night's game was a lot of fun. Looks like we will have more of that. The Phillies placed outfielder Domonic Brown on the disabled list, reports the Philadelphia Inquirer's Matt Gelb. Brown is headed to the newer seven-day disabled list for concussions. Steve Susdorf will get his first opportunity to be on the Phillies' […]
Rollins and Utley and Howard… together for at least two more years? The Phillies may be negotiating with second baseman Chase Utley on a contract extension. CSNPhilly's Jim Salisbury had a few indications in his piece last night. • A person with knowledge of the situation says the Phillies have had recent talks with Utley’s […]
Lenny Dykstra is out of prison…and finally talking. His first forum: "Vodcast", put together by comedian Jon Lovitz, with hosts Dmitri (yes, Delmon's brother) Young and Robert Fick. It's an odd production, with both hosts wearing ballcaps from their 15 minutes of fame in Major League Baseball, as if to have an overwhelming need to […]
The Phillies' best hitter is now shelved for two games against perhaps baseball's best team, the St. Louis Cardinals. Not playing tonight or tomorrow . Sucks!!! — Domonic Brown (@dom9brown) July 24, 2013 Brown appeared to injure himself yesterday when he dove for a ball down the left field line. The ball ended up […]

But Wilson has fallen since then, succumbing to a second Tommy John surgery in April 2012. Wilson is now on the comeback trail and looking for a new team. The Phillies are […]
He was 2-0 with a 1.38 ERA in the Phillies bullpen. It had to be too good to be true, right? Apparently so. The Phillies today played left-handed reliever Joe Savery on the 15-day disabled list with elbow stiffness, reports the Phillies. To take his place on the active roster the Phillies turned to […]
The Detroit Tigers and their All-Star shortstop Jhonny Peralta could be pretty nervous right now and the Phillies and Jimmy Rollins could be their solution. Major League Baseball got one of the major Biogenesis scandal players to admit fault yesterday, when the Brewers' Ryan Braun confessed to wrong doing and worked out a plea deal […]
Could Chris Dickerson help the Phillies? The Phillies have some gaping holes at the moment: center field and relief pitching. The consensus is that the Phillies should not give up any significant prospects to make the team better. So what is left is dumpster diving. As MLB Trade Rumors reports, there are seven […]
