The Phillies were pounded yet again by the Indians in Wednesday's series finale. Cole Hamels was roughed up, allowing five runs on six hits through five innings of work. The Phillies were able to mount four runs, but still fell 10-4. The Phillies fell back to four games under .500... Continue reading

Phillies Sign Pitcher Carlos Zambrano To Minor-League Deal

No....we're not kidding. According to Ken Rosenthal, the Phillies and Carlos Zambrano have come to agreements on a minor-league deal. Zambrano, a true character on the field and off, last pitched in the Major Leagues with the Miami Marlins last season where he went 7-10 with a 4.49 ERA. Prior... Continue reading

Strong Phillies Offense A Must Today As They Eye Sweep, Fourth Straight Win With Hamels On The Mound

The Phillies were very impressive in last night's 6-2 win over the Indians. Jonathan Pettibone went 6 2/3 innings, his longest outing yet. Allowing two runs on four hits while striking out three, Pettibone was also backed up by his offense - something that needs to show this afternoon for... Continue reading

Phillies Seek Better Fortune Against Indians This Time Around with Pettibone On the Mound

The last time the Phillies and Indians played against each other it was a complete disaster for the Fightins. During a two-game series at Cleveland back on April 30 - May 1, the Phillies were outscored by the Indians 20-2. Both Roy Halladay and Cliff Lee were worked over by... Continue reading

Tyler Cloyd Makes 2013 Debut As Phillies Look To Get Even With D-backs

The Phillies wasted yet another Cole Hamels gem of a game last night by failing to score any run support. Taking the 2-1 loss, their second one-run loss in a row, the Phillies fell to 16-20 on the year and Cole Hamels, who allowed two earned runs through six, fell... Continue reading

Cole Hamels Seeks Run Support As Phillies Take On Surging D-Backs

I was very impressed with the Phillies series in San Francisco these past three days. Taking the first two with runs that backed up great outings from their starting pitchers and even tying yesterday's game in the ninth showed me that the Phillies aren't giving up. Even if Roy Halladay... Continue reading

Jonathan Pettibone, Phillies Eye Sweep In San Francisco Against Barry Zito, Giants

So far this series in San Francisco has gone just the way the Phillies have wanted it to. Collecting wins in the first two games behind great outings from Cliff Lee on Monday and Kyle Kendrick last night as well as run support, the Phillies have already sealed the series... Continue reading

Kyle Kendrick Aims To Keep Rolling; Lincecum, Giants Stand In His Way

There's no doubt that if you stayed up for last night's entire game then you were either very tired this morning and woke up happy, or you were late to work but you don't care because your excuse is that the Phillies were on last night. These west coast games... Continue reading

Roy Halladay Placed On 15-Day DL; Joe Savery Recalled To Take Place On Roster

We all knew it was coming. Roy Halladay has landed on the 15-day DL with imflammation in his right shoulder. In response to this move, the Phillies have recalled RHP Joe Savery to take the spot on the roster. Halladay has struggled immensely in his last two starts, allowing a... Continue reading

Doc Shelled In Series Finale With Marlins, To Have Tests On Shoulder; DL Likely

I'll be short, sweet and to the point about today's game. ROY HALLADAY AND THE PHILLIES GOT KILLED. Roy Halladay got creamed for the second straight start and the Phillies were unable to mount anything to match the Marlins' 14 runs scored, 9 of which were against Halladay in less...

Roy Halladay Seeks Redemption, Series Win In Sunday Finale With Kevin Slowey, Marlins

(Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew) The Phillies went back to the pathetic bunch of tee-ball-skilled hitters last night (no offense to those of you who are parents of a tee-baller). Really? One hit against the Miami Marlins? C'mon, guys what happened to the can of whoop a** you put on them in... Continue reading

Phillies Look To Give Pettibone Another Win Against Marlins In Game Two

Last night was an imrovement from the series from Hell in Cleveland. Kyle Kendrick was yet again solid in a seven-inning bout against the Marlins.

Kyle Kendrick Looks To Spur Phillies Back At Home In Series Opener Against Miami

I'll be honest, the Phillies suck right now. Even after they washed away the Mets this past weekend, they went back to their old ways of failure to hit with runners on and simply score. The Indians scored a total of 20 runs between Tuesday and Wednesday, completely obliterating the... Continue reading

Doc Looks To End April On High Note; Delmon Young Makes Phillies Debut Against Indians

The Phillies are coming off of a three-game sweep over the New York Mets this weekend, their first sweep of the year. With the offense surging, a day off yesterday certainely doesn't prove good timing, but as the Phillies enter tonight's ballgame at 12-14 they are looking to end the... Continue reading

Carlos Ruiz Returns, Cole Hamels Seeks First Win As Phils Eye Sweep In Queens

The Phillies are on a roll in New York and it's been a fantastic weekend full of runs, more runs and great pitching. Kyle Kendrick threw a complete game shut out on Friday and Jonathan Pettibone earned his first career win as the Phillies' bats backed him big time scoring... Continue reading

Kyle Kendrick, Dillon Gee Square Off In Series Opener In Queens

So the Phillies really lost 3 out of 4 to the Pirates....ouch. Honestly blame it on the bullpen because Cole Hamels, Cliff Lee and Roy Halladay ALL threw great games, but the bullpen either blew the lead or blew the game. Yesterday afternoon Cliff Lee tossed seven innings of three-run... Continue reading

Cliff Lee Takes The Mound In Search Of Series Split With Bucs

Yesterday sucked. Plain and simple. In yet another great outing from a starting pitcher ruined by the bullpen, the Phillies fell to the Pirates 5-3 last night in game three. Roy Halladay tossed six innings of one-hit, one-run ball in his third straight solid start. After leaving the game with... Continue reading

Cole Hamels Aims For First Win As Phils Face Jeff Locke, Pirates

Last night was a good example of how small ball can produce wins. The Phillies used the runners on base to score and it worked out. It would have been nicer if they had gotten a couple more runs, but a win is a win. Jonathan Pettibone debuted last night... Continue reading

Jonathan Pettibone Makes Major League Debut As Phillies Open Series With Pittsburgh

(Photo: Frank Klose/Philliedelphia) If you fell asleep before last night's eighth inning, I feel sorry for you because you missed a helluva comeback. To sum things up, the Phillies got runners on base and they scored those runners. Crazy right? Along with compliments of an Erik Kratz three-run bomb, the... Continue reading

Kyle Kendrick Gets Nod As Phillies Look to Even Series in Cincinnati

There's no doubt that last night's ball game was a tough-luck loss for the Phillies. Cliff Lee dazzled through six innings before allowing two runs in the seventh inning.

Jonathan Papelbon: Families Are Ruined, Lives Are Ruined. For What?

This afternoon's tragedy hit American citizens hard everywhere. This afternoon, at least two bombs exploded near the finish line at the 2012 Boston Marathon.

Roy Halladay Seeks Redemption Along With Series Win In Rubber Match

The Phillies were on the short end of the stick last night. It was a tough-luck loss, but at least it wasn't a blowout loss. Cole Hamels allowed an earned run on three hits through six innings, four of which were no-hit innings. He didn't take the win, but he... Continue reading
