great news for the phillies today, zambrano is going to miss his start due to having a dead arm, sean marshall is in instead.

actually werth has been pretty inconsistent, but when he’s on, he’s usually on big time. hopefully he can deliver more performances like that if he wants to prove he’s an everyday player.

How solid has Werth been this year? He is the one carrying the team right now offensively. Another solid if unspectacular move made by Gillick. Gillick gets alot of heat for not being able to land the big time players during the season but he has made some pretty stealth moves that have improved our team alot. You have Werth, Romero, Lidge, Rowand (at the time), Dobbs, Moyer, etc. Sure he has had his faliures as any GM has but these moves have been solid. And you have to love Stairs’s comments about coming to Philly for a 40 yr old guy who is at the end of his career and will be a PH here.

Let’s get the split today boys.

Just bought MLB.tv for this final month and the first thing I did was go and watch Brett Myers’ at bat against the Mets. Absolutely priceless.

I hate when guys show up he other team. Yesterday I was watching the michigan game and the coach’s rule is that after a touchdown, You hand the ball to the referee. Great rule love the sportmanship of coach rod. And I am a penn state fan.

well, as many of us have said on here, it is either longball or nothing with this club.

They have runners on first and second with no outs in the first inning, Utley just worked a 5 pitch walks, then Burrell swings at the first pitch. From there is was all downhill in the first inning. The fact that they can’t score a run, or even advance the runner to third in that situation is appalling to me. The Anaheim Angels would have scored at least 2 runs that inning.

Like I have said before, this team might make the playoffs, but they better pray for Sabathia’s arm to fall off for them to have a chance of beating the brew-crew in the first round.

JC was just showing that he has heart and cares that much about winning. The biggger problem is that taguchi is still on this team.. He’s hitting like .202 and who’s gonna step up and do something about utley getting hit every game. Give soriano some chin music and stand up for your best player

The celebration thing is ridiculous. There’s a reason I never commented on Jose Reyes or Fernando Tatis — they have the liberty to celebrate their good work wherever they are. If they want to face “consequences” (fan vitriol, talk-radio fodder) then so be it.

The discussion is nonsense.
