2011 Philadelphia Phillies Season Thread (choking awful pos team, DIAF)

[Rome]

I am sick of watching good pitching efforts wasted because the clowns who get paid to hit have their heads buried up their asses.

i am sick of watching the phillies ace cy young 20 million dollar man who gets his dick sucked by every single human being on the face of the earth blow back to back games in the eighth inning to small time garbage teams.

oh wait its pete orrs fault

[Geowhizzer]

I actually want the Phils to struggle a bit in this stretch.  I want a RF that can actually swing the bat on a consistent basis, and don't want Amaro to be able to claim that they're aces offensively when they aren't.

It isn't about May baseball, but I don't believe this is an offensive that will win in October, no matter how well the starting rotation pitches.  Get Utley back, get a real RF and get this team set.  Ben F. Francisco isn't going to cut it.

Rangers game Saturday is on prime time Fox.  That better not be regional.

It's on the same time as Mets/Yankees and Cubs/Red Sox, but since Victorino and Sardinha are Hawaiian, you're safe...

I think I will get farged on Friday and Sunday because - even though I'm four farging hours from Dallas and can't even see the Dallas stations - EI Rangers games are blacked out down here because according to that gutless icehole Selig and his minions, I'm in the local DFW area.

good news on saturday...last time texas was on fox at the same time as bos/nyy (i.e. a marquee national game), the entire state got the rangers. so we should be good there.

the other days, i get 2 fsn channels (now that i pay 7 bucks extra farg you very much time warner) and one always has the rangers and the other the astros. so its there somewhere for you, might just take going to a bar.

Of course we'll get Cubs/Red Sox.  Nothing says Red Sox Nation like The Sandwich Isles.

The fact that Mayberry is hitting 5th shows you just how bad Ibanez and Fransisco have been. 

When Grit gets back, who should they bat behind Choke?......Polanco?

pujols is playing 3rd tonight

i know j's going to be mad but then they need to get him stretched out

Yeah, I'd rather have Worley in the hole for any emergency starts than Kendrick.

Westbrook throws underhand from 20 feet away.  Even then Raul and Big Ben would struggle.
