That's one of the things I will miss about Cliff Lee. He was fun to watch hit.


He's 3/38 career.


American League. Who can tell?

Yeah, but he is two for his last nine with an RBI. I say he hits his first career home run this year.

Roy Halladay, on Santana's comments that he's best: "I think it was a Lou Holtz quote, 'Well done is always more important than well said.'"


LETS GO. RIGHT FUCKING NOW.

If that quote doesn't personify the Phillies-Mets rivalry since 2007, I don't know what does.

Zolecki:

On when he begins his daily workouts: "It varies. Normally, 5:45 I try to get here. There have been a few young kids that have been chasing me in, trying to beat me. So I have to start bumping it to 5:30 here soon."

On a scale of 1 to Chris Brown, how pissed is he?

More from Zo:

On Scott Rolen giving him any advice on Philadelphia: "He actually said that I would love it. He said that you're going to love being there. I know that was probably tough for him based on the past few times back to Philadelphia, but I know he really enjoyed his time there. He seemed to think that I would, too."

Rolen was the classic "grass is always greener" type guy when he was here.

Didn't he tell Gudel he would waive his no-trade to come back to the Phillies a couple of years ago?

I mean, playing in front a packed CBP with a $140MM payroll is a pretty far cry from Rolen's first go round...

It appears that Rolen is the "grass is always greener" type of guy everywhere.

Congratulation to Kyle on his keeping stiff upper lip throughout his whole ongoing life as the butt of jokes

Takes all the attention off the future Mrs. Kendrick getting voted off Survivor in angry fashion.
