Photos from Phillies Spring Training

Posted by Brian Michael, Mon, March 15, 2010 05:50 PM

Here are a bunch of photos – including a few dozen of Roy Halladay – from today’s Phillies-Pirates Grapefruit League action in Bradenton, FL. A quick summary of the game: Halladay looked solid even though he gave up his first run of the Spring; Placido Polanco sprained his knee after attempting to catch a pop-up in the swirling winds behind the mound; Cody Ransom hit a solo shot to center and played well in Polanco’s absence; Phillies won 5-1.

    Has anyone heard about Polly? From what I’ve read it’s looking like a 2-3 day thing. I’ve heard no MRI…any other news out there?

    Polly has looked like complete garbage at 3rd base. I have a feeling that 3rd base is going to be a black hole for us.

    Brian, great job on the pix

    DOC is the real deal and the Phils Fans made it a sellout.

    See you in Clearwater on Tuesday ( expected temp 70 degrees )

    Oh, come on. We can’t stop making wildly positive predictions until after the pre season. It’s the rules.

    What Roy Halladay gave up a run??????

    Throw him out of town!!

    What a horrible trade, What were they thinking!!

    Okay sorry had to have my entertainment for the day, since the negative board trolls weren’t helping out with it.

    Brian, Those pictures are great!

    Thanks so much for sharing.

    Is anyone going to Opening day in DC? I have tickets and will be taking lots of pics. Will definitely share

    The man has played two weeks in “exhibition” games……and we’re now calling him “complete garbage at 3rd base” ???????

    Wow, great photos….question…does Roy ever just sit there and do nothing? Looks like he’s always moving around, stretching, throwing…

    Atleast Halladay made it through 3 innings. Lee got tossed from the game yesterday for throwing at Chris Snyder’s head.
