Walk-off game winning homeruns kick ass! Especially when they're by the Phillies longest tenured athlete (Pat Burrell) and it's in the bottom of the 10th inning with the Phils other begotten son Chase Utley on base. Chase Utley and Pat Burrell are the show, they are the offense, they are what is   more...

After taking games one and two from the Pirates the past two days, the Phils are on the cusp on their first 3-game sweep on the season. Brett "The Hitman" Myers opposes lefty Paul Maholm. A sweep would be sweet because it would likely place them atop the NL East with a 15-11 record (assuming   more...

The Phillies were dominated by the best pitcher in baseball, Brandon Webb, in Thursday's 8-3 loss to the Diamondbacks. Webb pitched a complete game, giving up six hits, to improve his record to 8-0 on the season. The Phillies were shut down most of the way but managed to scrape out two runs in the   more...

People usually joke about trading a player for nothing, but the Phillies literally did just that. They have traded Wes Helms for ONE DOLLAR and have agreed to pay his salary this year. I would rather have a dollar than Wes Helms, so i find this very amusing. So go support your Phillies at the next   more...

If you predicted "Diving stop by Bruntlett and scoop by Howard" as the play to end the game, you win a prize...Big win for the Phils. Getting swept is bad, but getting swept by the Mets is unthinkable. Some random notes:Gavin Eaton continues to pitch adequately. He had 5 good innings last night,   more...

Please don't rub it in that Michael Bourn beat the Phillies last night with his legs and bat (2 hits, 2 runs, 1 hr, 1 rbi, 1 sb).Please don't mock the use of the words "Phillies" and "Offense" in succession (currently ranked 10th in the NL with 64 piddling runs scored).Please don't mention that the   more...

I came across an interesting blog post today on "Off The Record" (OTR) with Micah Warren, a sports editor from Blast Magazine. In the article he says that Jimmy Rollins actually has a broken ankle which is the reason he was put on the 15-day disabled list. I'm not sure how valid this is but let   more...

The MVP is back! Jimmy Rollins made a successful return to the top of the Phillies lineup tonight against the San Francisco Giants. Rollins started off the game looking a little shaky in the field but finished off strong at the plate, going 3 for 5, including a 2 run homer in the 5th inning.   more...

Today's game was the twentieth of season for the Phillies, which seem like a nice time to write up our first Phillies report card. The concept is quite simple; I'm going to give a letter grade to each man on the team. I am grading not just on a player's performance, but also on a curve based on my   more...

It's roughly 9:30pm Eastern time and the Phillies/Astros game is heading into the bottom of the 9th with the Phils down 3-nuttin'. I ponder turning off the tv and catching some early z's, but I resist the temptation of sleep and decide to stick around to watch the finale of this lousy game. It has   more...
