We have one of those whenever Frank Thomas gets on base!

I didn't watch it, but seeing the box scores:

Brad Lidge.  1.0 IP/0 Hits/3 Ks.

that's rediculous.

too bad Oswalt gave up 2 runs.  Clemens had a solid inning too.

GO STROS!

A lot of trade rumors are starting to fly around:

1. The Marlins are still shopping AJ Burnett. They reportedly have 7 teams interested. The White Sox, Blue Jays, Orioles, Dodgers, Angels ,Padres and the Yankees. Toronto is reportedly willing to give up Gustavo Chacin. The Orioles are willing to give up Larry Bigbie, Jorge Julio and Hayden Penn. No word on what the other teams are offering.

2. The Nats deal to getting Preston Wilson is getting closer. They are also looking into signing Mike Stanton because their BP is so overworked.

3. The Astros are coveting Kevin Millar. He could be dealt for Chad Qualls.

4. Rockies and A's are talking about Joe Kennedy

5. Marlins are looking at getting Javier Vazquez, Bronson Arroyo, Aaron Harang, Josh Fogg, Gil Meche, Jason Jennings, Mike Maroth or Mark Redman

All of this pitching talk going around and not one mention of the Phillies....go figure. :boo

Saw all these on the bottomline, im not going to look for a link.

Rockies trade Preston Wilson and cash to Nationals for Zach Day+JJ Davis+PTBN/cash

Red Sox trade Jay Payton to A's for Chad Bradford

A's trade Eric Byrnes and minor league infielder Omar Quantanilla to Rockies for Joe Kennedy and Jay Witasick

well considering the phils  had his brother long after he was effective...might as well save a buck and recycle an old jersey and keep the streak going.
