I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood.

2 guys need to go on. since bell and loserthal and the ph will get out, its up the the big boys.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Put it this way... the odds of him keeping the streak alive are still better than the odds of him breaking DiMaggio's record were before today's game.  So, he's got THAT going for him, which is nice.

Great production from our 3-4-5 hitters in the 8th. Break out the dustpans.

id be surprised if hes ever had a 200 inning season and his career era has gotta be up around five or over

Is that about Lidle?

1.  Correct on never having 200+ innings.  He's had four over 180 (188 in 2001, 192 in 2002, 192.2 in 2003 and 184.2 in 2005).
2.  Incorrect on career ERA.  Lifetime ERA is 4.52.  Not great, but not over 5.00.

Point is he blows.

He is what he is.  An end of the rotation starter.

Unfortunately, the Phils' rotation seems to be full of them.  Leiber (perhaps a 3 on good rotations), Lidle (4/5), Franklin (5).  Or unproven young pitchers (Floyd and Madsen, for now).  Myers is a 2/3 as is (I'm still more hopeful than IGY).

FEARLESS HOMERTASTIC PREDICTION:  Madsen will be the #3 (possibly #2) by season's end.

It's amazing what will be considered a fearless homertastic prediction now.  Just a few days ago, many of you were calling for the Phillies to make the World Series, which was completely laughable.

It's up to Lieberthal to keep Jimmy's streak alive.

Rollins with a double to extend the streak. My prediction is it won't last the week.

Am I a genius or what?

Post game analysis:

- Bell sucks
- Lieberthal sucks
- Lidle sucks

No silver lining to that farging travashamockery.
