Things to Take from This Game
1. A Balanced Attack

Phillies Rumors: Phillies looking at Willingham, Spilborghs
All the trade rumor talk has focused on Roy Halladay, and rightly so, but the Phillies are also unconvinced that John Mayberry Jr. can be an effective bat off the bench and are looking at both the Nationals Josh Willingham and the Rockies Ryan Spilborghs, according to several media outlets.
Either would be a great pick-up in my opinion. They could spell both Werth and Ibanez, and...

Jim Hendry must have forgot this fact last offseason.
Hendry decided to sell high on former Cubs' super-utilityman Mark Derosa. I didn't and still dont agree with this...
