We need Schierholtz at 4th to bring in Sandoval. Keppinger has a hurt wrist and should be back for the Houstan series. Fontenot sucks against lefties, that's why he wasn't playing today.
But ya if i ever see Cabrera or Tejada bat 2nd again i will puke.

Atlanta has a ridiculous bullpen and i didn't believe any of the hype on them till i saw them today. They have 3 top notch closers, totally unfair. Everyone one of them are totally unhitable.
With all of the injuries and distractions going on with the Giants i am actually pleasantly surprised on how they played. They only won 1 of 4 but they should have 3 of 4.
The schedule is a cake walk for the rest of the year. Six against Houston, everyone else is the NL West. We need Beltran healthy and producing in the worst way.

I can't wait for the Phillies to start declining, especially with their insane overpay to Ryan Howard not even starting yet.

Cant wait to get that sexy Peter Moylan back in the pen soon, too.

Philly has the cash to remain competitive and potentially on top for many years to come.

Why are you the way that you are? Honestly, every time I try to do something fun or exciting, you make it not that way. I hate so much about the things that you choose to be.

Betances had a decent AAA debut, onlookers said they only hard hit ball was the homerun.
More importantly was the 0 walks and 8 k's. He'll miss bats, thats for sure, he just needs to limit the walk damage.

If you have a magenta username you are allowed to talk about whatever you want.
Brackman finally hitting upper 90's again, lets see if he can get the mechanics back from last year. Idiot grew again, someone should have stopped that.

6'10. I don't think any pitcher has been over 7'0 yet.

Maybe that prospect from the Mariners was actually. I think his last name was Anderson.

The problem is since we were idiots and gave him a major league deal, isn't he out of options next spring?
