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

Oh, and even though Rowand's homer made it a non-issue, the look look at his hit into the left field corner is bush league stuff.  Only getting a single out of that is a joke.

He lost sight of it and thought it went foul. Was pretty obvious when they showed the replay.

No shtein, Sherlock.  My point is that if he did not know where the ball was, he should have been running instead of standing at the plate hoping to find the ball with his eyes.

So every time he hits what he thinks is a foul ball he should take off for first? Makes sense.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

In a one-run game?  Yes.

Are his testicles delicious?  He was dogging it all night last night, and you look like an idiot defending him.

[SunMo]

this is a fantastic argument

He looked like shtein lastnight, I'm not arguing that. He lost the ball and thought it went foul. He wasn't 'dogging' it at that point.

If he made contact with the ball, and had no idea where it went, then yeah, it makes total sense to runs towards first. He'd look like less of an ass if it was foul and he ran than he looked last night.

exactly

unless you know 100% the ball is out of play then you run..i learned that in little league

[BigEd76]

He's a better LH option off the bench than Nunez...

no hes not...cause nunez is a very good fielder

uhhh

I'm talking about a pinch-hitting role where you want more power than Abe and his awesome 0 HRs.  Abe is the better contact hitter (on all those grounders to the pitcher or to 2nd), but Branyan has the better chance of tying or winning a game in one swing...

[Eaglez]

If Branyan comes off the bench and hits one PH home run it will be a good move. They gave up nothing. He's just fodder. I think he was an unnecessary pick-up because Werth is playing well and the Phils have Dobbs coming off the bench to start certain games and pinch hit in clutch situations. So whatever. It's not worth splitting hairs because I don't know if there is anyone off waivers that would be worth trying to pick up now in place of Branyan.

[MDS]

When Dobbs starts, he becomes their best LH option. Great.

[ice grillin you]

if dog flails at one more low and outside pitch someone needs to smash his face in

[ice grillin you]

roy clutch

[MDS]

fla and atl are gonna own the phils...then you got the nationals who are on fire.....by then this madness will stop

yo kid own up to your wrong doings

[ice grillin you]

yeah like the white sox earlier in the year i vastly overestimated the marlins...theyve quit

[MDS]

since your in the apologetic mood, let's admit how crappy the wire really is.
