A little over a year ago myself and most of Philadelphia had a nickname for Jayson Werth: Werthless. After his effort Friday night in the Phils 10-3 win over the Blue Jays, I will never call him that name again.Werth had a record breaking night, hitting a home run in each of his first three at-bats   more...

Wow, what a letdown! Jayson Werth hypes up the entire ballpark with 3 homerun in his first 3 at bats of the game knocking in 8 runs in the process and then pops up foul for an out on his 4th and final at bat. Anyone can go out and pop 3 taters in a row and chase 8 ducks from the pond, but only the   more...

How can the Phillies be 21-18? There's no way in hell they actually have a winning record. Was there a misprint somewhere along the line that went unnoticed that lead to this standings gaffe? When I watch this team, or listen to this team, or even read about this team, my initial thought isn't   more...

Jimmy Rollins rolled into San Fran, deposited himself in the starting lineup in his customary leadoff spot, and promptly went 3-5 with a run, double, homerun, and 3 rbi. Welcome back J-Roll, we missed ya! Jimmy's obviously a motivator, he hustles his booty off on the field, and plays with a fiery   more...

Multiple times this year, the Phils have given victories away with errors and careless play. Well, they got one back on Sunday, after the Giants made three errors and the Phils scored 5 unearned runs to claim a 6-5 victory.Game notes:- Chooch was long overdue. He's only batting .203 but that dinger   more...

"Ryan Howard has been staying on righthanders real good and he's starting to swing better." - Charlie Manuel - I can get a good look at a steak by sticking my head up a cow's ass, but I'd rather take the butcher's word for it. But in this case, I'd rather see an average above .165..."I f----d up."   more...

Take a look at tonight's bobblehead of Jamie Moyer (free to all attending fans). With all the modern day technology at the disposal of the media relations and marketing department you mean to tell me they couldn't create a better likeness of Grand Pappy. Seriously, they didn't even make him look   more...

Today's game was the twentieth of season for the Phillies, which seem like a nice time to write up our first Phillies report card. The concept is quite simple; I'm going to give a letter grade to each man on the team. I am grading not just on a player's performance, but also on a curve based on my   more...

What the f@#k Chuck?! The curse of the dumbass finally broke through this season as Charles Fuqua Manuel notched his first loss of the season. Overall, I was pleased with Manuel's managing through April. He had done some questionable things prior to last night's mess, but every manager is going to   more...

The San Diego Friars roll into Philly for a 3 game set starting tonight at the friendly confines of The Brick Cit House. These Padres aren't your ordinary run-of-the-mill fatherly types either; they've got a pitching staff that may leave the Phils wondering if they just got spanked by their   more...

Max Scherzer of the Arizona Diamondbacks was two years old when Jamie Moyer made his major league debut back in 1986. Scherzer made his first career start tonight and Moyer, with his 21 years of experience, schooled the rookie, leading the Phillies to a 11-4 win over the D-backs.Moyer put together   more...
