Philadelphia Phillies: The Phloundering Offense
Posted on 19 Apr 2012 by Adrian Fedkiw.
As the Pittsburgh Penguins kept ripping the back of the net in a 10-3 thrashing of the Philadelphia Flyers on Wednesday night, a question was proposed amongst my colleagues. Can the Philadelphia Phillies score 10 or more runs in a baseball game this season? My initial response was of course, once Ryan Howard and Chase Utley come back. And then the question became, what if they don't return th...

2012 Phillies: Bruised but Better than Ever
Posted on 25 Mar 2012 by Christopher Rowe.
The 2012 Phillies are now a mere one week away from their Citizens Bank Park debut and we’re still not sure who will show up. This team won 102 games in 2011 but bowed out in the NLDS to the eventual champion St. Louis Cardinals – marking the third straight year the Phillies have lost to the eventual champions in postseason (2010 San Francisco Giants NLCS and 2009 New York Yankees World...

JUAN for the Money…25 for the Show…
Posted on 27 Jan 2012 by Christopher Rowe.
Well, the Phillies first move of the offseason was a huge splash – signing Jonathan Papelbon to the tune of $50 M/4 years. Ever since then there have been a succession of more obscure, lesser marquee names inking deals (Jim Thome, Dontrelle Willis, Ty Wiggington, Lance Nix). Philadelphia’s real Dream Team seems to be taking shape and will debut in the shadows of the failed Eagles 8-8 2011 s...

New Label, Same Great Taste: Early Season Review of Your 2011 Tampa Bay Rays
Posted on 13 May 2011 by Nick Blanchard.
Since coming back from a left oblique strain that landed him on the DL, Longoria has hit .310/.429/.655 in 9 May games. Tampa Bay has gone 7-2 since his return. 2011 has been a story of resiliency for the Tampa Bay Rays thus far. They opened the season losing 6 straight games and dropping their first three series (BAL, LAA, CHW). To compound the defeats, they also lost their star third baseman...

White Sox “Drop” Game vs. A’s
Posted on 12 Apr 2011 by Shaun Balmer.
Mark Buehrle was brilliant last night for 8 innings versus the Oakland Athletics in limiting the A's to only 2 hits and 3 total base runners. No base runner advanced past 1st base through those 8 innings. Dallas Braden and Tyson Ross were nearly as good for the A's only allowing a solo HR to light hitting Brent Lillibridge. With the Sox leading 1-0 and Buehrle only having thrown 99 pitche...

The Diversion of Oz
Posted on 3 Aug 2010 by Patrick Kelley.
The White Sox followed up another Ozzie Off Day Rant by blasting the Motor City Kitties 12-2 today in Game 1 of the day-night doubleheader, pushing the lead back to 1 1/2 games over the Twinkies. This was the makeup game from the postponed 5/17 contest. The Sox seem to shrug off and/or move past their manager's sometimes nonsensical ramblings with such regularity, they make it look like it's al...

Taking Care of Business
Posted on 2 May 2010 by Dave Leonardis.
After a dreadful April, things have been looking up for the Dodgers in the month of May. The Dodgers finished their series with the Pirates today with a 9-3 victory for their third straight victory. The Dodgers had a rough start in the season's opening month, going 9-13 and sinking to last place. However, after taking 3 of four from Pittsburgh, the Dodgers open up May 2-0 and now have some comp...
