    And another thing - was Singleton 17 when he graduated high school? Just looking up his numbers, and he started rookie ball at the age of 17? Damn.

    yeah, he was. not sure how that works.

    you're thinking of longoria in the WS. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE--VVVVVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

    No, I know about that. Love knowing I was apart of that. I'm talking about before the games - who ever it was was in the outfield warming up and freaked out on the crowd because of the shit they were saying to them. Someone on the radio was saying it was an outfielder.

    I figured it was something Gaga-related, just didn't know what in particular you were talking about. But, yeah, sometimes my attraction to girls have nothing to do with looks, Jeags. Well, it does, but in a weird way.

    Cannot fucking wait. I'm making sure I tell Blake that they don't jerk me around and I definitely get tickets to each round this time. All I know is I hope they, at the least, get one more bat to help this putrid offense somehow sure up itself. Outside of that, this maniac right here will be fueled by alcohol and a hoarse throat by the end of October. Hopefully.

    good point about francisco. was pretty dumb for them to play a no doubles defense with 2 outs and a 2 run lead. bad teams just seem to be untalented and stupid

    back up to 3.5 on the bravos too....assuming the rocks don't blow this 8 run lead in the 7th, which they most certainly will after me posting this.

    Wow. Phils get win number 60 on July 19th - didn't get there till August 5th last year. More than anything I wanna be in a groove come September that's being set by the lineup and not the pitching. One can hope...

    His birthday is in August so he wouldn't turn 18 until after the school year ended. He probably got drafted, graduated, signed, and then started playing before he turned 18 that summer.

    That was the best. Especially since he plays in the AL East, and Yanks & Red Sox fans never thought of it. :lol:

    Yep, awesome win. That's why good teams are good and bad teams are bad.

    "Yesterday the Mets provided Beltran with a short list of teams to consider, and the Phillies are believed to be on it, report Tim Brown and Jeff Passan of Yahoo. The writers add that the Mets have indicated a willingness to pay much or all of the $6MM owed to Beltran depending on the return. They list the Red Sox, Giants, and Yankees as other suitors, and wonder if the East Coast teams have an edge since Beltran lives in New York. Brown and Passan named the Brewers as a dark horse, but they don't have much in the way of top prospects."

    And just read that James Shields may be available for a trade. So my thinking is if that's the case, then why wouldn't BJ Upton be available as well, especially after the rumbling with Washington? If New York wants Brown first and foremost, then I would clearly give him up for Upton easily over Beltran.

    Huge win,it's good to see Martinez actually look like a ball player. I know i'm not alone for thinking he should have been sent back to what ever team we Rule 5'd him from a long time ago. I'd really like to see are R6 remember how to play baseball today. His stick is really hurting this team right now.

    The more i think about it a Brown and someone else for Pence trade needs to happen. We need a big Righty bat who's young and he's it. I really hope we don't get Beltran because i don't wanna give the Muts any value,
    Go Birds!!!!
