Move the Line Murphy....

Another day and another positive write-up about Dan Murphy's baseball abilities. While I posted just last week that Mets fans should restrain their enthusiasm for the youngster it seems more apparent that unless they get a knock-you-off-your feet offer for Murph, he is a major...

Phillies Release Scott Nestor

David Murphy reports the Phillies have released Scott Nestor. The right-hander gave up 10 earned runs in five innings for AAA Lehigh Valley and AA Reading this season. This ironically comes on the same day as the Phils are burned by Wes Helms, who was once rumored in a deal involving Nestor.

Destinations for Wes Helms

It's looking more and more likely that Wes Helms days in a Philadelphia Phillies uniform are numbered. Helms has been on the trading block for a while now, even before the team signed Pedro Feliz to play third base for them. A trade is still possible but looking more like a long...

Blanton Fans Career High, Lidge Records Save

Joe Blanton set a new career high with eleven strike outs as he went seven strong innings, by far the best outing of the year by any starting pitcher. Blanton allowed zero runs to the Florida Marlins as the Phillies rebounded from a Memorial Day loss the day before. Although the bullpen...

Screw Winter, Bring on Spring!!!

Its-spring-training-charlie-brown
Screw winter, I hate it! Snow blows, ice irritates, wind chills chap, and slush sucks! I'm ready for some baseball, even if it's in the form of glorified stretching for pitchers and a bunch of squatting for catchers- bring on spring training. In about 12 days pitchers and catchers...

Wes on the way out?

The Phillies tried to pry Mike Lowell away from the Red Sox. Utility man Eric Bruntlett was acquired from Houston in the Brad Lidge trade. Pedro Feliz inked a deal to play third on January 31st. That must leave a pretty bad taste in Wes Helms' mouth. The real story begins in the...

Phillies About to Let a Good One Get Away...Again...

Rolen1
A bitter taste spews within the saliva as it flows out from the corners of some Phillies fans mouths when they hear the names J.D. Drew and Scott Rolen. In fact, those in management for the Phillies organization have the same reaction to hearing them also. But as I look at the current...

Costly Mistakes

Costly Mistakes:*Wes Helms appeared to be struck out looking on a 2-2 pitch, but the umpire missed the call. 3-2 offering sent into orbit for a 3-run homerun.*3-0 pitch to Ronny Paulino over the heart of the plate with runners on 1st & 2nd with 2 outs and the light hitting pitcher...

Phillies Roster Cut Down to 27

504060
The Phillies made three more player moves today, cutting their camp roster down to 27 players. Pitcher Travis Blackley, a Rule 5 pick, was placed on waivers. Vic Darensbourg and Gary Knotts, a pair of journeymen relievers, were reassigned to the minor league camp. None of these moves...

Frank Fitzpatrick thinks highly of the Philly sports fan. (via The 700 Level)

Today in Philly Sports History: Padilla K's 10 in 1-0 Victory Over Mets, 2003

Marienrsrangers_2816
Personally, I would rather not face Vicente Padilla in the playoffs this year. Not that I find the Dodgers' starter to be a particularly formidable foe, it just seems like all the one-time Phillies from Wes Helms to Rod Barajas seem to take games against the Phils just that much...

Daily Box Score 8/5: What Sabermetrics Has to Teach Managers

Wes_helms_braves_2c92
Much of what goes on at Beyond the Boxscore is advising general managers on how they should do their jobs. After all, it's fun, and since there are teeming throngs of people who would love to take (just to pick a random example) Omar Minaya's job, the GMs don't really...

2007 Phils vs. 2009 Phils

Picimg_mlb_feb_22_06c1
 Wow, what a difference two years makes. It seems like the same team, but check out how many major players (at least 45 GP for fielders or 13 appearances for pitchers) from the team that went to the playoffs two short years ago are no longer on the squad: Abe Nunez Pat Burrell ...

Schoeneweis, Weathers & Brocail

I believe there are three players who no matter what can't return to this team next season; Luis Castillo, Aaron Heilman and Scott Schoeneweis. I've already made my case for Castillo and Heilman but I haven't mentioned why I think Schoeneweis needs to be moved. On his numbers...

Interview with Carson of WSBGM's

This offseason has been a long one, anytime without baseball is a bad time. To help pass the countless days between watching the Phillies succumb to the Rockies in the 2007 playoffs until the 2008 Opening Day pitch from Brett Myers, I began an interview segment on the blog called Check...
