Phillies 2010 Season Thread

Poor Cholly.  He's going to be drilled and scrutinized on tonight's game for a long time.  

Oswalt was painful to watch.

I love Charlie but he deserves every bit of criticism he's going to get.

[MDS]

oswalt was just a microcosm of his awful managing this game/his career

given the situation it was the right play. but the game as a whole charlie was perhaps at his worst and gets an F-.

it all started really with using contreras for 2 innings yesterday. what the farg. didnt think you'd need him today with blanton going? that played into having to use him for just 1 out...which led to durbin being out there without any help...which led to madson being used for 2...which led to no one left and having to use your starter who couldnt possibly be expected to be effective.

bad managing of what he already knew was a pretty mediocre bullpen. F- charlie. F farging minus.

you set it up to go contreras in the 7th, madson 8th/9th and lidge with a lead. not rocket science.

[Hawk]

team is so old too...next year is gonna be painful and its going to get progressively worse for years after that

Nah we restocked the farm system in the Lee trade.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Oswalt volunteered to pitch.

Said he will be ready for 6.

[Eagles_Legendz]

Victorino described the situation as fun and exciting and he's looking forward to it. 

IT'S ALL PART OF THEIR MASTER PLAN.

so if they lose 2008 might as well have been 1996?

just wanna make sure

not trying to sugar coat or play homer here

[PhillyPhreak54]

Doc goes 9 strong tomorrow...Phils win 4-1

Oswalt wins game 6

Hamels and Lidge slam that shtein shut in 7

Typical Philly attitude... we had a chance at a dynasty... winning 2 out of 3 world series.. instead we're content settling for one?

Not me.

2008 is still 2008, but when you're in the moment it doesn't make you less pissed off.  Especially since this team has a chance to be remembered as one of the greatest the NL has ever assembled.  08 may take the sting away afterward a little, but people are still going to be frustrated and vent during the games.

[Sgt PSN]

I don't understand giving Posey an outside pitch that he can take to the opposite field and I don't understand giving Uribe a soft change away after throwing him heaters.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Phils in 7.

I will not dwell on tonight or else I may end up in a padded room.

Phils in 7

i envy people who dont take sports seriously

Todd, excellent point.  That was a very questionable move yesterday with Contreras knowing you have Blanton going
tonight.  I was praying we weren't going to see Durbin at all this series.  

Cholly making Bochey look like Einstein.

Trust me, speaking from experience Hawaiians are dumb.   

[PhillyPhreak54]

I already have the vision in my mind's eye of how the headlines will read the morning after the Phils come back and take this.
