Phillies 2010 Season Thread

[PhillyGirl]

Romero's first save since 1998. He pitched some nasty shtein there.

is this good enough? or did they need to win the world series today?

[SD]

still waiting for those Braves I kept hearing about

Mets are tucked away snug as a bug in a rug in last place.

some figures to think about

# The Phillies have won 11 of their last 14 games.
# They are 23-13, which is the best record in the National League.
# They swept the Brewers for the first time at Miller Park since 2004.
# Cole Hamels allowed two runs in 6 2/3 innings. He is 2-0 with a 2.75 ERA in his last three starts. "I feel like I've come a long way with making the adjustments, getting used to the new pitches and just trying to attack," Hamels said. "Trying to make the hitters, attacking, attacking, attacking. Knowing to back off, knowing to hit my spots, knowing when to go up and down, I think I've finally been able to figure it out. I think that's just kind of something you have to be able to do over and over."
# J.C. Romero picked up his first save since July 10, 2008.
# The Brewers retired the Phillies in order just four times in the entire series.
# The Phillies' 7-8-9 hitters hit .353 (12-for-34) with 11 runs scored and four RBIs. "The top six guys in this lineup are really good," said Paul Hoover, who hit .500 (5-for-10) with two doubles, two RBIs and six runs scored in the series. "It's unfortunate for the team that Jimmy (Rollins) and Juan (Castro) are a little banged up and Brian (Schneider) and Carlos (Ruiz) are a little banged up, but we're just trying to come here and contribute the best way we can."
# Shane Victorino hit .533 (8-for-15) with a home run, seven RBIs and four runs scored against the Brewers.
# The Phillies are 13-7 on the road, which is the best mark in the National League.

so if they lose tomorrow, i fully expect the usual crowd (my boys phreak, donny ho and rising superstar lbi) to tell me how awful they are

and they are doing this without carlos ruiz. without the heart and soul that is jimmy. with 3 starts from joe blanton. with kyle kendrick in the rotation. with no closer. with no ryan madson setting up and a month of him as the closer. with rual ibanez not taking any steroids.

BOW DOWN TO THE NL EAST CHAMPS PLEASE. THE DIVISION RACE IS OVER.

All is well.

[Munson]

It's cute that jewy still can't figure out the difference between calling the team out for awful play on any given night, and actually calling the team awful.

[MDS]

if you called every baseball team out for every awful play they ever did you could fill up your entire trailer in whiny posts

its baseball. its a game predicated on failure. you are going to fail. a lot. complaining every time this happens (they at least mean well and arent complete morons like you) or not seeing how pointless it is (i.e. someone as vapidly stupid as you), accomplishes absolutely nothing. which you would be used to, considering you are of the ilk that takes buses to vegas and thinks that standing at a random fire in the street is a "really cool" way to celebrate a title.

dont farging talk to me you god damn white trash idiot.

[Munson]

You gargle igy's balls so much, you can't even come up with your own material. And you're a farging idiot on top of it.

I am not generally on here bitching about the team. I might make a sarcastic comment here or there. But fans are going to come on here and bitch when the team plays like shtein for a night or two. That's what fans do. They get excited over wins, they get pissed over losses. Of course it accomplishes nothing, but this is the internet, and this is a sports forum. It's here expressly for a bunch of talk that will accomplish nothing. And you constantly coming to this thread to repeat yourself about this is almost as annoying as you and igy greasing each other up in baby oil and rolling around naked in a pile of your completely overplayed, not even close to funny MA comments. At the very least, it's far more annoying than Phreak stopping by to say they played like shtein last night.

Let me summarize the rest of your remarks in this thread, so you can stop posting in it and hopefully leave.

farg. MA Retards pointless. Philly. MA. MA. IGY. The Wire. MA. derka derka derka

If we're real lucky, you'll get rolled on by 30 chicanos for banging their 15 year old sister and refusing to pay. Go away now.

[Munson]

Don't act like you don't have it. They pass em out in Brownsville whenever one of your stories gets the green light.

its a game predicated on failure.

No wonder you love baseball so much....it's like the business model for your life.  Bam!

BTW....I don't know if it was mentioned, but the 2 long balls Hamels gave up to Braun and Hart were on the exact same pitches that he used to get them out on their previous ab.  It would seem somewhat logical to me to try and mix it up a little bit when facing the heart of just about any team's order.  They were both sitting on those pitches and sent them into orbit.  Not sure if Cole missed his location or if Hoover wasn't paying attention when he called for those pitches.   

[Sgt PSN]

Finish him.

Don't act like you don't have it. They pass em out in Brownsville whenever one of your stories gets the green light.

Fatality.  Munson wins.
