Choochtober
Carlos Ruiz has been one of the brightest Phillies in October over the past two seasons. Many felt that his performance in the World Series warranted him consideration for Series MVP. While it was tough to argue with anything Cole Hamels did that series, Chooch has picked up where he left off last October and is batting .333 this post season with 3 RBIs. Thus, the advent of Choochtober. [more PhotoShop'n below]

Thanks to reader Pat for sending in the Choochtober photoshop above and for the Red October effort below. We enourage you to send along all photoshops and screengrabs you pull this post season. Also, thanks to Justin for the final two photoshop jobbers.
