we should draft like the nats- now that's great evaluation. Stasburg and Harper in consecutive years. Can't teach guile

Keep playing like this and we'll get their draft position

Cole needs to bring the stache back. Season fixed.
This is a simple game. You throw the ball, you hit the ball, you catch the ball.

The whole debate on whether Kratz is to blame for the pitching woes is dumb even by Philadelphia sports broadcaster standards.

Sports Final showed a stat where Cole and Doc give up 2 runs less with Kratz behind the plate instead of Chooch :smallsamplesize:

when an elite pitcher is uncomfortable and shaking you off every inning figure something the fuck out.

I don't know. A BP guy is doing some really good work regarding things like pitch framing and other stuff about catching defensive effectiveness. Yadier Molina ranks really high in everything. Ruiz is really good too.

Plus, I'm pretty sure a catcher can have a positive or negative effect on an individual pitcher or several pitchers or even a whole staff.

Whether or not Kratz! Is good or bad in this regard I have no idea. But the concept is not without merit.

I'm not sure what the solution is beyond having them talk it out among themselves, though. Can't say I want to see Quintero 3 of 4 days.

I think Chooch should get his old job back when he returns.

Phillies drew 35,393 tonight. Smallest crowd since April 22, 2009 (32,759).
I know what you're asking yourself and the answer is yes. I have a nick name for my penis. Its called the Octagon, but I also nick named my testes - my left one is James Westfall and my right one is Doctor Kenneth Noisewater.

I'm reserving all judgment on this season until I see what Delmon Young can add to the squad.

Delmon's an RBI man. It'll all be okay.
