Phillies 2010 Season Thread

[smeags]

LOL at the Mets fans I know posting things all badass sounding on facebook to all Phillies fans.

"Bring it on Phillies!"

"How does 2nd place look?"

Really. They're REALLY talking shtein in April. 

DH & feva are rolling with that already ?

[smeags]

they have no number two pitcher...not a weak bottom of the rotation...NO NUMBER TWO...that is inexcusable for a team that is hoping to win the WS

this isn't debatable right now.

lol - settle down.  it's not even may yet.

[smeags]

yeah it's so unlike the phillies to start off slow.

[SD]

Seasons over, time to move on.

man, remember the days when the team didn't suck ?

[LBIggle]

halladay is a fraud1!!

on a more serious note fat ass says he's ready

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

They won the World Series with no true #1 starter and definitely no #2.  Guys got hot at the right time - specifically Hamels and Blanton.  Hamels said that he feels good after yesterday's start and that he's beginning to figure some things out again.  The fat guy is just about healthy, relegating Kendrick to hell.  Lidge can't be any worse than Madson, right?  Jimmy will be back soonish, right?

The shiny happy people side of me says that the team will be "fine."

season saved....Lidge is back

tardo was sent down

[smeags]

heavey b should be close behind.

tardo was sent down

he was actually one of them guys pitching decently, but i guess the he was the only one with options so its the obvious choice

i dont want to say their season is riding on lidge being effective, but it almost is. at this point is a forgone conclusion that they need to go out and get a starter at the deadline, considering blanton, happ and moyer are more or less bottom of the rotation pitchers and since hamels is quickly becoming one of the most detestable philly athletes of all time.

rube doesnt really have the prospects, or the will to trade what he has, to get a closer AND a starter, and maybe a right handed hitting left fielder since francisco is just horrendous, ibanez is cooked, and guys like dobbs and gload are platoon players at best.

[ice grillin you]

so they traded lee because he needed prospects to trade for a starter at this years deadline?

More likely a closer at this years deadline.

They can get by with the starters they have, the back of the bull pen needs to be completely overhauled.
