Hey, everybody - this is Jayson Werth's Beard, and I just wanted to check in with you all. Thought we'd get acquainted. :thumbup:
That's gonna hurt his aerodynamics...

he BETTER NOT shave that thing off at any point this season.
the jeagler's been known to rock a beard every now and then. so i am please to see this development from mr. werth.
Ya damn right he shouldn't. It'd be like Samson cutting his locks. No chance in hell.....hopefully.
And beards are sweet, as this guy is in the middle of growing now. With this shitty weather, it's drawing my inner-Rocky IV Balboa when he's training in the mountains of Russia.
Listening to the Phils/FSU game right now. Phillies were losing 5 to 0 but have come back to take a 5 run lead. The announcer's talking about the FSU coach bringing in a pitcher who can give up runs so the Phillies win and invite FSU back next year.

Apparently Aumont got rocked - allowing a home run, and walking the bases loaded and earning 5 runs. OH MY GOD, WHAT WERE THEY THINKING TRADING LEE FOR THIS PIECE OF GARBAGE!?!?! ....Woops...sorry...just thought I'd start what I'm going to start to hear in the near future by the boo-birds.
Anyway, schedule for tomorrow - class at 930, home by 1130, drink beers until 1, at 1:01 - giddily await CC vs. Doc in a meaningless spring training game where I will continue to consume said beers. It's gonna be a good day!

Lol,i'm not even gonna comment on the piece of shit we got for CY LEE. Kinda feel bad for him because he's gotta feel some added pressure because he was the center piece.

the yanks were fitted for their world series rings the past 2 days so you guys might catch them sleeping

and think of the pressure doc has on him. he could win 25 games but if he doesnt match lee's post season mark and we don't win the world series....then......yeah......

Tell me - what's it like not to have a soul, nor know what loyalty is?
i wouldn't know considering they have multiple players with rings for their thumbs on the team
cliff lee..not thats loyality :roll:
Remember - human beings are what I talk to. Especially to those with grammar skills. And as usual, it must be tough schlepping through life on cruise control. :thumbup:
I here what your saying about Doc,but i think he'll be fine. Chooch said something along the way of he's never seen a slider like Halladay's. The Al hitters 1-9 are so much better then the Nl's that 20-25 games isn't far fetched imo. Cy Lee being a number 2 with seattle should help him out big time in the win total. 28 minutes and counting
Halladay's impressive debut
CLEARWATER, Fla. -- As far as debuts go, this one was fairly anticlimatic, just the way Roy Halladay probably prefers.
Halladay faced seven batters in two innings. The only one to reach base was courtesy of an error.
Halladay threw just 24 pitches (21 strikes) over the two innings with three strikeouts. He was supposed to pitch between 40 and 45 pitches, but apparently Charlie Manuel and Rich Dubee saw enough.
In the first inning, Halladay faced four batters and needed 15 pitches (12 strikes). The only runner to reach base was Jamie Hoffmann on an error by third baseman Placido Polanco. Halladay struck out Jorge Posada and retired Robinson Cano on a hard liner to right field.
Halladay struck out Nick Swisher and Randy Winn looking to begin the second inning. Juan Miranda put the only ball in play, a weak grounder to second base.
He never reached a two-ball count to any hitter.
After he departed for Kyle Kendrick, Halladay walked out to the Phillies' bullpen in left field and reached his quota of pitches in the bullpen.
We'll have more in a little after Halladay talks in the clubhouse.
Halladay was hitting the inside and outside parts of the plate. Pretty awesome - gave me a semi.
And, to clarify something, no, the Roy trade will not be determined by what he does in the World Series. Stop with the arrogance. 162 games. Don't start sucking each other's D's just yet.

what will it be determined by then?
isn't the goal to be better than last year and win the whole f'ing thing again?

Victorino weighs pros and cons of the seven-hole
CLEARWATER, Fla.--Now that his sore right shoulder is well enough (though still a bit stiff), Shane Victorino begins his 2010 season tomorrow night against the Atlanta Braves. He will bat second, a rare treat for Victorino after the Phillies signed third baseman Placido Polanco, who will usually hit there this season. The team believes that Polanco's high contact rate makes him an ideal no. 2 hitter, though Victorino will see occasional chances at the top of the order.
After signing a three-year, $22 million contract in January, Victorino said all the right things about moving down to the bottom third. This morning--while still saying that he understood and endorsed the team's rationale for altering the batting order-- he admitted that he saw pros and cons for himself.
"It is what it is," Victorino said when asked if he was okay with the change. "It's going to be a year of adjustments for me...I've (batted second) the last two years; why would I want to change? But you've got to look at the big picture. It'll definitely be a different dynamic in the lineup."
Victorino expects to see fewer fastballs in the new position, the consequence of having less frightening hitters directly behind him.
"When I'm hitting second, I've got Chase, Ryan and the rest of the guys behind me, so of course (pitchers) are going to go after me," he said. "Now I'm hitting seventh, I've got Carlos (Ruiz) and the pitcher behind me. So am I going to be pitched differently? Am I going to get a lot of breaking balls? So that's all going to come into play. I'm going to have to adjust as we go."
He envisions scenarios in which opposing pitchers would not risk throwing him strikes. "Late in the game, if I'm the pitcher, and there's a guy at second, one out, me up, open base at first? Who are you going to go after? Most likely you're going to go after Carlos, and then the pitcher...those are the things that come into play, and that's the adjustment that I'm going to have to make. But I'm ready. Whatever."
Though Victorino's .358 on-base percentage last year was respectable, he said that taking pitches was not his favorite activity. He prefers to swing at fastballs, and enjoyed many opportunities to do so while hitting second.
"That's something I've got to work on," he said of taking pitches. "I like to hit. My on-base percentage wasn't bad, but again, I like to hit. I like to put the ball into play. I don't like to strike out much."
Victorino does see several advantages to the change. A no. 2 hitter must worry about moving runners from one base to another by hitting the ball to a particular location in the field. He rarely hits while multiple runners on base, and because of the power hitters behind him, he often doesn't attempt to steal in order to avoid making a pointless out.
"The other aspect is I can swing freely," Victorino said. "I don't have to worry about moving the runner over. That's the positive side; I can go up there and just swing...also you'll be in a lot more RBI situations. There are pluses and negatives. In this game, home runs and RBIs drive your value. There are also going to be situations when I can run more, a little more freely."
