hopefully dude gets off the schnide tonight. he's making Amaro look bad and that's a shame because Amaro is a great GM that all of us here at the Pearl Jam.com Phillies thread respect.

not really, Cole will be pitching for one of the other contenders fairly soon.

Chooch has been unreal. who was the last Phillie to hit for this high of an average this close to the all-star break? I think Dykystra one year maybe? i don't know how catchers ever get hits with all the abuse they take and this guy is hitting .350. how great he has been is lost a little bit in how bad this team is.

I just realized the band still plays that shitty song Ole'. If they play that shit at the Philly show I'm going to sling my feces at the stage. I figure one piece of shit for another....

Yooo, so the Village Belle, the spot at Front and Fitzwater had an awesome set up for the fireworks on that grass area next to it on Saturday. You could see the fireworks perfectly and they had $10 for bottomless PBR. Also had a grill fired up and all. Good stuff. They just brough a keg outside and gave you a solo cup for $10. Sooooo, why wouldn't we end our time there by doing kegstands? Makes perfect sense, right?

When am I going to grow up?

Solid article put up on FanGraphs about the catcher prospect we got for Thome. It was more than a bag of balls, so it was a nice trade in my eyes...

The Mets absolutely bitch slapped the Phillies. I'm talking full fledged pimp daddy , get yo ass to work beat down.

eeriepadave

uh oh is Cliff Lee gonna win his first game of the season today??????

pjhawks

"WAR - what is it good for, absolutely nothing". don't hear the stat geeks using that around here anymore huh? they've all abandoned ship. just another stat they loved to use against Ryan. guess he means more than some stupid made up stat

Chooch for MVP!!!

Jearlpam0925

It's hilarious when you contradict yourself - actually ironic. WAR means absolutley nothing yet your slurping Ruiz when he's 7th in the Majors in the stat. Nope, doesn't mean anything at all.

But he's 41st in RBI and 42nd in Home Runs, so he actually sucks.

I am pretty certain he just proved everyone's point for us while actually trying to do the opposite.

My WAR machine for ironic idiocy says he leads the league in the stat.

did i say chooch should be up for MVP because of his fucking WAR? nope i didn't. nice try though. :fp:

a catcher with a shitty offense around him leading the league in hitting is why not because of some made up stat. try again.

Cliffy did i ever say rbi and home runs were the ONLY important thing? nope never did. just like the other guy above nice try though. :nono:

maybe the bandwagon fans don't see how good chooch has been since they are too busy selling tickets and 'being done with this team' like the same guys do after every eagles loss

eeriepadave

if we can hang on and beat Dickey and the Mets I would be pleasantly surprised :thumbup:

Now THAT was an ugly-ass way to lose.
