2007 Philadelphia Phillies Thread - DIVISION CHAMPS MOTHER fargER!!!!

[Rome]

The Phillies won't get a serviceable starter for Bourn alone.  Not because Bourn isn't a decent player and a plus-prospect (he is) but because starting pitching is far more valuable than positional players at the moment.

If you want a good mlb starter be prepared to give up the farm because that's what it's going to take.

Also - apparently the Blow Jays turned down whatever stale peanuts the Phillies offered for Josh Towers.  All I can say is, thank God because Josh Towers sucks ass.

PS: Drunk posting in the Phillies thread?  NICE!

sometimes i'm good for a few laughs...what can i say

and say what you want about how productive Burrell has been lately, and he has been.  you have to have a left fielder that can catch the ball that dropped foul in the first inning.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Yeah, that was a goddamn shame. Pat just looked at it. But he gets credit for hitting well lately.

Thank god the Jays turned down that deal. I'll repeat...no goddamn slop, please. No Matt Morris, Joe Kennedy, Josh Towers or whatever other no talent ass clowns are out there.

Maybe I take Bronson Arroyo, but only if they can steal him ala Iguchi. But that ain't happening because the price for pitching is more expensive than what MDS charges the gays for toothless hummers on North Broad.

[BigEd76]

They asked about Arroyo but the price was too high...

Just scored a free ticket for tuesday night

Enjoy the HRs that Eaton gives up

yo kid i live next to some crackhead old age home, i can pay one of the hot 60 year old chicks on their last legs who look like their 95 for whatever the farg i need. get it right.

also, everyones favorite juan pierre clone mike bourn is in rightfield, rowing is back in center, and tad iguchi is batting 2nd.

[ice grillin you]

is the game in a rain delay?

[MDS]

yea they gonna start in a few minutes. settle down there, big guy.

[Rome]

Big guy?  Don't you mean bIGY?   


Anyhow, Howard is having a helluva time with Pittsburgh pitching this series.  He's now left 11 men on base during the series, 8 alone on Friday.

Yikes.

1-0 Bums on a wild pitch.

14 according to the Pirates' announcers.  Must be pining for Utley.

The Phils have screwed up plenty this series.  Thankfully the Pirates are bad enough for the Phils to win anyway.

[Rome]

The Pirates announcers must have gone to public school.  He had 8 LOB on Friday, 1 yesterday and 2 today.  That's 11 even in Pittsburgh.

[MDS]

theres a reason its called shteinsburgh

[Rome]

If anyone else is watching the Phils home broadcast, did you just catch someone dropping a "Karate Kid" line a moment ago?

Haha!  It was dead quiet and someone screams out, "put 'em in a bodybag, Johnny"!

Awesome!

[SunMo]

Ryan Madsen's arm just died and went to heaven

[Rome]

That looked exactly like when Myers blew his arm up.

Lovely.

Alfonseca struck out Bay to end the inning, though.  Nice!   

[MDS]

This Marte character would look nice in a Phils uni.
