Do you still have this copied from last year so you can paste it when necessary? :)

Ryan Lawrence had a decent tweet where Worley said something like "motherfuck a sophomore slump"

this is just fantastic.

Got 3rd row seats to the July 4th game at Citi. Should be a lot of fun. 3/5 shot of seeing one of the big 3 pitch.

Yeah, at Citi, I've had Park, the Hamels vs Dickey 1 hitter (with Hamels as the only hit), umm...I think Hamels getting no run support against Santana. Lots of other stinkers. Haven't had good luck since Shea.

After each strike out, Worley walked around the perimeter of the mound with a cocky, don’t-mess-with-me strut.

This is so bad...

Phillies rated 19th best bullpen by fangraphs.

http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/index.ph ... -pitchers/

The Cardinals, who had about 12 different failed closers last year, were rated 8th. Maybe losing Ryan Franklin and La Russa was enough to make them that much better...

The Pirates were rated 14th. Aside from Hanrahan their bullpen has been piss poor, and Papelbon is definitely better than Hanrahan.

The Mets are rated as high as 21st somehow, ahead of the Nats at 22 who have Clippard/Storen/Lidge.


It looks like they just added up the projected WAR and used that, which is so comically wrong. Of course the Phillies' relievers are going to have low WAR when they have the most complete games of any team.

Isn't Madson hurt? They didn't mention that but they said the Phils would be in trouble if Papelbon, who isn't hurt, got hurt.

do you think it would be better for galvis to be a utility guy instead of continuing to play everyday?
