So who do you think will be contenders for the World Series this year? I know mine. For the N.L. right now the Cubs are doing awesome with a 47-28 record as of right now and Ryan Dempster with an 8-2 pitching record. Derrek Lee has been doing good with 15 homers also. But that is not my pick. You   more...

It seemed like forever ago that Cole Hamels masterfully pitched the Phillies to a victory over the Red Sox. After losing six straight games, the Phils needed another masterful pitching performance, this time by Kyle Kendrick, to finally get another one in the win column, a 4-0 victory over the   more...

After leading the Phillies to an impressive victory over the Red Sox in the first game of the series, Cole Hamels suggested that a Red Sox/Phillies World Series is destined to happen. Hamels said that the Phillies could compete with the Red Sox "any day of the week". He should have rephrased that   more...

Happ doesn't have overpowering stuff, nor is any of it tricky. He's much like Kyle Kendrick in that he pitches best when he's got his head on straight. Meaning he doesn't get ahead of himself, doesn't get to up or too down. He knows what he has to work with and knows his limitations. Kendrick has   more...

Rehabbing pitcher Kris Benson will make another attempt to get back to the big leagues this evening as he is scheduled to take the hill for the Class-A Clearwater Threshers. This will be Benson's first rehab start since having from shoulder surgery in Arpil of 2007. Although it's not his first   more...

Phillies pitcher Kyle Kendrick was the victim of a pretty brutal prank during spring training. He was told the team had packaged him in a deal with a Japanese team to acquire a player named Kobayashi Iwamura. This video is hilarious...

Lost in the Brett Myers shuffle was the fact that the Phils had a good night at the ballpark, beating the Braves 8-3 in their return to league play. Last night's one-sided final is a little misleading; the Phils were good, not great, against a team that's fair, not good. Kyle Kendrick earned his   more...

So much for the Phillies owning the Mets. The Mets took advantage of 4 errors and a poor start by Kyle Kendrick to win 8-2 and snap the Phillies' nine game winning streak over New York. The Phils played without Jimmy Rollins, who sat out with a minor ankle injury, and his replacement Eric Bruntlett   more...

Ouch, the Braves just got tomahawk chopped by Pittsburgh, losing 3 of 4 along the rivers. But the way the season is going for the Braves, this really isn't a surprise. Sure, the Pirates suck, but the Braves have now only won 5 games away from Turner Field, compared to 14 losses. Luckily, this   more...

The Philadelphia Phillis pulled a prank on pitcher Kyle Kendrick as they told him he was being traded to Japan for Kobayashi. Kendrick doesn't recognize the name Kobayashi, and signs the papers while looking a bit confused. Check out the video to get the full effect, but basically he got punked big   more...

Hip-hip-hooray the Phillies scored 15 runs. Let's roll out a keg, hire some go-go dancers, and invite over your loose Aunt Lucy. 15 runs are nice, but this offense is so inconsistent that it's infuriating. I'm thankful for the offensive onslaught yesterday and all, but I'm not all that excited. For   more...
