In case you missed it, the Phillies placed right fielder Geoff Jenkins on the 15-day disabled list with a right hip flexor strain. Jenkins hurt his hip running to first base on Friday night after singling up the middle. There is no timetable for Jenkins return, and the Phillies have recalled IF/OF   more...

Perhaps it was the rush of two straight day games with the trip from Florida to Atlanta sandwiched in between.Perhaps it was the lack of time to put Monday's blown 5-0 lead behind them. Perhaps, it was both and more.But whatever it was, the Phillies' bats went totally silent outside of a 3 for 4   more...

For 5 innings, the Phillies and starter J.D. Durbin kept the score close and trailed 3-1. But the Dodgers blasted losing pitcher Durbin and relievers Jose Mesa and Clay Condrey for 12 runs over the last 4 innings to clobber the injury-stung Phillies by a 15-3 score.

Phillies starter Adam Eaton, with his $24.5 million, three-year deal in hand, was awful in yet another start. He gave up 4 runs on 6 hits and served up 3 Rockies homers in 6 innings. The Hot, or Not Phillies bullpen was no better as the Rockies scored 4 runs against them as well enroute to an   more...

Private Matters:1. What to do with Wes Helms? The man is a butcher at 3rd base, meaning his only real position is 1st base, but his bat failed miserably in Philly last season and caused the dynamic duo of Patty G and Rube to cast their line for the big catch of Pedro Feliz. This leaves good ol'   more...

Ouch! The Phillies speed- burn brothers Jimmy Rollins and Shane Victorino. Phillies with leg injuries- gimp gang Jimmy Rollins and Shane Victorino. The top of the lineup went from DSL to dial-up in a matter of a week and that's a bummer. Rollins is expected to be held out of the game again today in   more...

The Phillies recently released their scheduled promotions and give-a-ways for the 2008 season. The typical Dollar Dog Day, fireworks, magnet scheduleds, etc. are on the calendar, but the Phils spiced it up a little this year with some marketing marvels that should be very popular. Here are a few of   more...

Tracking the springs of Rule 5 picks Travis Blackley and Lincoln Holdzkom has made me think back to other Phils that were Rule 5 picks. Recently there was Fabio Castro (who we acquired midseason in a trade), Shane Victorino (we offered him back to the Dodgers, but they passed...idiots!), and then   more...

According to the AP, familiar face Fabio Castro will join the Phillies for their four-game series with the Chicago Cubs. Castro, 23, is 0-1 with a 3.30 ERA in 30 major league games, including one start. He spent most of the season bouncing between the starting rotation and bullpen for Reading and   more...

The Phillies farm system is starting to blossom. Who's going to be the next Cole Hamels, and who's going to be sent packing for a late season acquisition?

The Phillies have finally dropped a player from camp who had a solid chance of making the major league roster. They sent Fabio Castro, the diminutive lefty, down to the Double-A camp today. Castro has shuttled back and forth between the big club and the minors for the last few years, but has never   more...

The Phillies have long coveted another left hander for their bullpen, and it has been no secret that Brian Fuentes of the Colorado Rockies is on their radar. As I talked about back in March, the Phillies would love to get their hands on the former closer. Rumors are starting to pick up around   more...
