Bad Thing- Jimmy Rollins is hitless in his last 27 at bats. Yes, the same Jimmy Rollins that was the 2007 NL MVP. The same Jimmy Rollins that remains leading off for the defending World Series champions. The same Jimmy Rollins that is batting .205 with a .569 OPS. That Jimmy Rollins is now officially classified in the "suck" department. This isn't a slump, this isn't a funk...

Raul Ibanez worked out in Reading for the third consecutive day, but did not play. Ibanez continues to not play, and the Phillies continue to indicate that he hasn't "had a setback" and that they are "waiting until...

It might be a bit early to call it, but Jimmy Rollins and Brad Lidge just wrapped up a statement series by showing that there's a good chance that the worst is behind them. Rollins blasted a leadoff home run off Johan Santana to start the game, and Lidge struck out the side to end it. The save was Lidge's second in a row, and Jimmy had five hits in the series along with six RBI. But...

Jimmy Rollins and Shane Victorino are 6-for-70 against the Braves this season. They’re hitting a combined .086, with a .143 on-base percentage.
Think about that for a second. This means that the top two hitters in the Phillies lineup have gotten on base once every seven plate appearances against Atlanta, a team the Phils are 2-6 [...]

Going into this series against the Mets, I had zero confidence that anything good would come of it. Having taken the first two games rather a-matter-of-factly the Phils are in a position to perform the coveted 3-game sweep. One obstacle- Darth Santana. I don't hate Johan, I fear Johan. The Phillies have never beaten him, lifetime- 4 wins in 8 starts, 55 ip, 49 k's, 2.95 ERA,...

The Phils limped home last night following a third straight loss to the Braves at Turner Field and for the first time in more than a month find they are no longer in sole possession of first place. While still atop the standings in the Philadelphia Inquirer and Daily News, they are no doubt listed second in the Miami Herald.That's OK; they weren't in first place at this...
