2011 Philadelphia Phillies Season Thread (choking awful pos team, DIAF)

[Sgt PSN]

I'd love to see the Phils drop a 10 spot on these douche bags 2 days in a row. 

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Not worried anymore about pop off the bench now that Orr is back. AMIRITE?

[Rome]

Jesus Christ... come on Stutes.   Just end it already.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Stutesy gettin' hit around a bit...Madson warming.

Come on man, end this shtein

[Rome]

Atta boy.

[Eagles_Legendz]

Stutes has definitely regressed.  I like the bullpen in the future (assuming they can keep Madson) with Aumont/Schwimmer/De Frautus all apparently have bullpen potential to go with basticho and possibly Stutes, but it is getting thin this year.  Need starters to go 7 pretty much every night and hand it to basticho and Madson.

I believe I read that Cliff Lee has the same number of XBH's as Ross Gload.

I think 3 phillies pitchers have higher BAs than Schneider.

I think 3 phillies pitchers have higher BAs than Schneider.

And yet, the Phils are something like 24-4 with him starting.

[Rome]

It's gotten to the point with Schneider where luck & sample size are becoming less and less believable explanations for how they've performed with him in the lineup.  I mean, how else can you explain Worley & Kendrick pitching as well as they have with him behind the plate?

Whatever.  24-3 is indeed rediculous (sic).

[MDS]

bench chooch?

[Sgt PSN]

Have the Phils really given up 4 unearned runs today on just 1 error?  Because that's what the box score suggests and I'm not sure how that's possible.   

[MDS]

you can give 100 runs on 1 error

an error is an assumed out. if you get 2 more outs, that should have been 3. so lets say someone reaches on an error. then 2 strike outs. then 5 homers in a row. all those runs are unearned because the inning should be over, because the first batter should have been out.

sassy.

[Sgt PSN]

Yeah, I know that.  I'm scoreboard watching on ESPN.com and the pbp explanation makes no sense.  It reads that 2 runs scored prior to Martinez' error. 

edit - I think they're having some technical issues with the site because the box score keeps changing everytime it auto-refreshes.  It's 7-3 one minute then 0-0 in the 1st, then 4-3 in the 2nd, etc, etc. 

[MDS]

you could spend some money and watch the games on your computer, cheap jew

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Again, I think that it's very clear we learned more about the team in today's game than either of the last two. Definitely a lot to worry about.
