Why am I going tommorrow? Gotta get about around 8 to catch various trains. Maybe I'll kill a Met fan on the way, make the trip worthwhile.

Direct quote from the 6/2 issue of the Sporting News, from Philly favorite Jim Thome:

QuoteIn his first visit to Jacobs Field this season, ex-Indian Jim Thome was booed by his former fans. Says Thome, "At first I thought I was back in Philadelphia. But then I realized this city doesn't smell like a jockstrap."

well well well....

1. I hear Bobby A misplayed one tonight again, is this right? I saw two parts of the game tonight. The first being the misplayed DP by the Mets and the Burrell HR.

2. I would be open to trading Abreu as long as it was for a leadoff hitter or a solid 3B and a pitcher. A pitcher ha sto be included. And the guy who I would like as far as 3B go is Chone Figgins from Anaheim. He could hit leadoff and play 3B. His OBP isn't great this year but he's fast and plays a solid 3rd.

3. Good news on Cole so far. Like I said..he's a china doll.

4. Way to piss away the 12/13 streak, Phightins. Goddamn bums.

5. Thome's comments are surprising.

Apparently John Kruk said that someone needs to go get in Abreu's ass and tell him if he bails on another ball again then they will stick theirfoot right up his ass.

Haven't heard it, but he apparently said it on BBTN.

Oh, and he said on Jody Mac that Howard was lackadaisical in the field and takes plays for granted.

the Phillies are an inspired 1-6 after Rowand sold out for that catch. way to make it worthwhile fellas.

BigEd76 · May 25, 2006, 09:55:13 AM

4-7 (5-7 if you count that same game)

SunMo · May 25, 2006, 10:00:17 AM

didn't they go right to Milwaukee after the Mets series? they got swept there, they won 1 of 3 from the Red Sox and they lost 2 to the mets...
