[...] Day- Those are two of the favorite words of any baseball fan. In case you haven’t heard, the Phillies begin their defense of the World Championship tonight against the Braves. Hearing the phrase “defending World Champions” will not get old no matter how many times it [...]

I think the standard lineup for this team should be:

Rollins
Victorino
Utley
Howard
Werth
Ibanez
Feliz
Ruiz
Pitcher

I like having Werth in the 5th slot to drive in leftover runs, with Ibanez cleaning up off of Werth and possibly continuing rallies with his consistency.

People are still considering us the underdogs. That’s fine. I’ll take it. Just like last year.

What’s the beer choice for tonight? I’m feeling Blue Moon.

IM so happy, its like Christmas! Cant wait until first pitch. My big trade prediction of this year will not be a starting pitcher (I think Happ and Carrasco are going to be capable reenforcements when theyre needed).

MY big move of the year is: Phillies acquire Adrian Beltre from SEA for Kyle Kendrick, Brad Harman, & Andrew Carpenter. Pedro is a great player but he seems to get hurt too much. Im sure the Phillies will get I some kind of a bullpen arm as well. But I really dont see the need for a starting pitcher unless disaster strikes this staff.

Now thats out of the way: Lets play ball!

I know it’s only April and you can’t look into these games too much but last year was the first time in awhile that they had a winning record at the end of April and look what happened. Getting off to a good start isn’t a must but it helps to not be playing catch up the Whole season

I would’ve put Myers fifth to protect Howard.

Lets Go Phillies!
