    And by the way, that's a big Fuck You to the dumb no blocking the plate rule that nobody understands. That's just baseball right there. Pure and simple.

    Let's just ignore how intoxicated I am and realize how much like 08'some Victorino's throw that was. Actually, even better. If this team SUCKS and makes a run athe the playoffs I'm perfectly fine with that.

    Yeah. At least they're enjoyable to watch again. That throw was one of those moments where, drunk or not, you let your mind think "this makes no sense, but what if....?"

    Now they'll probably lose 5 in a row now. Haha

    This is a pretty awesome story - http://www.phillymag.com/articles/john-middleton-phillies-owner/

    Sounds like his sister is a piece of garbage. And if I know being from Philly, she'll get her part of the team and do like Rachel Phelps ala Major League. But other than that, this is the kind of owner you want. Hopefully he gets 100% of this team.

    Went to this brewery in January when my wife and I were in Delray Beach on vacation. Place is awesome. Highly recommended if you're ever in SE Florida

    Only the Cubs have more wins than them in all of MLB. Crazy.

    The Phillies are the first team since 1900 to be 7 games over .500, 40 games into the season, and have a minus 30 run differential.


    Suck it, Pecota.

    It's called a fluke. Happens all the time in sports. Perfect example was the mets making it to the WS last year.

    It is nice to see mackanin platooning ryan howard's corpse. We are almost at the end of living that nightmare of him on this roster

    fangraphs had a cool feature ranking the mlb announcers. phillies were 30 out of 32 (30 teams but some teams have separate crews for home and road games). ranking seemed accurate. I wonder how long mccarthy's contract is for

    Interesting to see if this can continue. Kudos to Mackanin for sticking with him...

    Goeddel's first 11 G: 11 Ks in 21 AB. Last 14 G: 1 K in 44 AB. The former prospect is prospering with playing time:
