2008 Philadelphia Phillies Season/Playoff Thread (Die Mets Die)

[ice grillin you]

ironic too that the worst pinch runner in the league was in there for the phils in the 9th

[SunMo]

i guess i'm missing the humor in michael bourn hitting a homerun?

How does irony fit into Taguchi pinch running?

Astros broadcasters were saying tonight that Rollins may be leaving the team tonight/tomorrow due to a death in his family.

The stuff he's saying about running straight ahead bring no problem is junk. Its not just lateral movement, its all movement that he is having issues with.

Tough loss, but unless Utley and Burrell are doing something there is no hope from this offense right now.

Who would have thought that Eaton and Kendrick pitch well enough and the offense struggles?

Oh well...my boy is on the rubber tomorrow. 2/3 Brett, get me IGY's cake.

Choke Dog might strike out 300 times this year.

cause bourne won the game and when the phils had a chance to tie it in the 9th they had a 57 year old pinch runner when last year they had bourne who was sick

so not only did bourne win the game they also missed him dearly in the late innings when they needed a base stolen to get the runner in scoring position...which by the way is going to be something that hurts them dearly all year and is an underrated aspect they are missing from last year

He is so off at the plate its ridiculous.

1. Yo Milt, bust out the video tape and show him what he farg he's doing.

2. Howard needs to get his iron glove ass in the cage, after taking a hundred balls at first and work on his farging timing. There is no goddamn reason he should be on his front foot so much. I can understand on a great breaking ball, but on fastballs? Come the farg on. Pull your head outta your ass, Howard.

i never said to the contrary...i realize its infathomable to you that the phillies could have made a bad trade but this time i wasnt saying that...just that it was ironic that bourne put his team ahead of the phils with a homer and when they had their chance to come back at the end the player they were most missing was bourne

[Rome]

Stop misspelling his name.  He's Michael Bourn, not Jason Bourne, dinky head.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

GET BOURNE!

[Rome]
