    nice summary of the phils draft here. next year's draft is supposed to be loaded and the phils are in good shape. Assuming they don't sign any big name free agents (a reasonable assumption since they already have a ton of money committed for 2011), they will have all of their top picks, as well as a supplemental pick or two for werth leaving.

    Sounds like Phils had a pretty good draft, but not spectacular. It's just so far away that we'll see these players.

    I wonder if it's a curse to get the #1 pick, like the Nats. You've got $10-$15M tied up in players who might not pan out. Doesn't leave much room in the budget for later-round overslot picks.

    By the way, what the hell are the Phils going to do with Rizzotti? Is this a case of having a guy with high value that you can't do anything with?

    trade bait. that was a pretty cool article about him yesterday.

    was watching "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" (just getting into this show now, hilarious) and was the episode talking about the 2008 World Series and Mac writes a letter (love letter) to Chase Utley. I think I am going to start calling The Fixer by his new nickname of "Mac". as they read in the letter in the episode I actually thought of The Fixer (disturbing I know) because obviously he has a serious man crush on Chase.

    Dude, don't even get me started on my infatuation with Leroy Halladay. Friends of mine are starting to think I'm gay.

    Nice game tonight. I love the way the Phils tend to pour it on in the 8th when they're rolling.

    Also, no drunken idiots in our row tonight! Good times!

    And the Braves still won't lose. Granted, it was the Nats.

    I honestly think the phils playoff chances are gonna come down to the 6 remaining games with the braves. the reds and cards schedules are weak as hell...barring a huge injury, they are both getting in.

    the braves starting pitching is too good for them to collapse. they aren't going away

    Understood. But there's no way I want it to come down to that. And they've been playing like .700 ball. There's no way they can keep that up, no matter how good their pitching is...

    The Cards are still struggling against their weak schedule. Those Central teams are gonna show up and play them and try to beat them. We've been hearing about this weak schedule, and the Cards just keep slipping back.

    I'm boycotting the top of the 1st inning tonight.

    Is there any way we could tell the giants that we'll start the game in the 2nd inning with you up 1-0. I'd rather that then see blanton get schelled for 3 again

    Then it would be 4-0 in the middle of the 2nd.

    Cards lose to Brewers again.

    My boycott didn't work.
