Pettibone is out 3-6 weeks with inflammation in his right rotator cuff (no structural damage), so he's probably done for the season

Just passed DOM on Walnut. Enormous in person. Tiny dog.

edit: then Lannan, with his wife. He's playing WAY above the rim

Interesting NYT article on the Phils. Takeaways include they're continuing to negotiate with Gonzalez and they may fortify their analytics operation and rely on that more

Just last week David Montgomery explained wOBA to Ruben. Amaro almost dropped his dippin' dots he was so shocked. Later, someone overheard him asking Prufrock how to spell UZR.

Progress.

Michael Young is on pace for 63 runs and 53 RBIs in 657 PA. Even with Ruben's beloved traditional stats he's terrible.

edit: and Rollins is on pace for 61 runs and 43 RBIs in 680 PA. Our leadoff hitter is going to have 61 runs for the season.

since the one hit and one walk in his first 18 plate appearances (.170 ops with an obscenely low babip), asche is .286/.328/.476/.805 over 67 pa's, with an only slightly lucky .327 babip.
all three of his errors were made in that first week, so i suspect his defensive value since then is positive, despite his overall negative.

I'm not saying he doesn't have vision problems. But I think he has other problems too.

Theoretically not being able to see a major league fastball is a vision problem.

Full details since Bob left everything out:

-- Wells to the 15-day DL with vision problems
-- Orr is up from LV
-- Howard was transferred to the 60-day DL, ending his season

Franco to play rest of season at 1B. Coincidence?
