we're making philly great again
We have the best fans people BELIEVE ME when I say this.
We're also going to get the best players.
We're going to start winning so much, we're going to get bored of winning
We're going to build a great trophy case. the best trophy case you're ever seen.
It will be done early and under budget and I'm going to make Pittsbrugh pay for it.
Ovechkin and Backstrom? Choke artists and losers.
After we win against Ovechkin and Backstrom, we're going to take down Little Crosby.
MPGA!

Wow.
Holy (frank)ing wow.

Been saying it for a while. SP is the strength of that team and might be the class of the division in a few years.

It is the shotgun approach to prospects and so far the new GMs philosophy is paying off. Gather a large quantity of prospects and hope some pan out. There is not as much high end projection like the Mets though

Hmm, maybe I'll go see him and hope I finally get the perfect game my life list is missing.

I just saw that ... 16 K's... wow! At this rate, the fielders can take a couple of innings off each game.

I saw the last half. He looked unhittable, and he was mostly just pounding the zone with electric fastballs. 12-6 curve mixed in.

The Phillies's starting staff this year has an ERA of 2.14, 75 Ks, 12 BB (6 by Morton), 0.81 WHIP, .173 BAA. They lead the MLB in all those stats (BB/9 to be more accurate). Suddenly this season seems more watchable, even though they'll regress.

The fielders do take innings off each game btw...it's just usually when they're at the plate.

And two of their best pitching prospects, Thompson and Kilome, aren't even in the bigs yet. Even former #1 overall Mark Appel, who they got with Velasquez for Giles, could be a solid 3/4 perhaps. Then add in Jason Groome, the LHP out of high school that they will probably draft #1.

Then cobble together a lineup including Franco, Crawford, Herrera, Alfaro, Williams, Randolph, Knapp, Quinn, Provorov. The future looks gooooooood.

If they can get a couple of bats to complement Franco in the next couple of years, look out.

Just found 2 tix for Monday's game. Bringing some tissues. Here's to hoping the series is tied at 1, or dare I say, tilted in our favor!

Meh, upper level was $208 for the pair. I had a $200 deposit from season tickets a few years back, so was just waiting for a good time to use it.

As low as $148 it looks like. Pretty reasonable, actually.

If they get a win in games one or two the prices will rise

$225 for center ice row 17, not bad for one of the best seats in the place

So, Claude Julien is returning for Boston. My dream of Milbury coaching the Bruins (and in the process getting his ass off NBCSN) has died.
