DirtySanchez(TRDMB): Most likely you guys will have the first pick in the draft again. Since [...]

Last night the Washington Nationals actually got a victory against the Philadelphia Phillies. After being down 2-0 early, they exploded with eight runs from the 3rd to fifth inning with a rookie doing most of the damage. Rookie Ian Desmond had an RBI double in the fourth and followed that up with a three run [...]

Mets starter Bobby Parnell started strong, but a tough Cubs line-up was too much for the young right hander, who gave up a grand slam home run to Jake Fox in the fifth inning as an otherwise light-hitting Cubs line-up took down the New Yorkers 11-4 at Wrigley on Saturday. To make matters worse, [...]

The big bat of Ryan Howard provided the firepower for Philadelphia in their soggy 4-2 win over the Atlanta Braves in Philadelphia on Friday, extending the Phillies lead in the N.L. East to eight games. The Braves were hoping to sneak up on the Phillies, sending ace rookie Tommy Hanson to the mound, but Hanson [...]

The Philadelphia Phillies(73-52, 1st in NL East) had a bit of a surprise and a possible worry when in Pittsburgh this week. They had opportunities to win all three games, and three times late comebacks caused at the least, extra innings if not a loss. Monday and Tuesday the leads were blown by the bullpen, [...]

Yesterday, fresh off a stunning triple play ender to a ball game, Cliff Lee looked to make it three of four against the deteriorated Mets. Lee(5-0) went seven innings allowing six hits and two runs, while striking out five and both runs allowed were in the first inning. He got plenty of support from big [...]

The Philadelphia Phillies(69-49, 1st in NL East) are coming into this Mets series playing some of their best baseball of the year. The problem is, they don’t need their best baseball this time, as the Mets are completely depleted. The Phillies have won eight of nine games since being swept by the Marlins two weekends [...]

Cliff Lee has been absolutely outstanding for the Phillies since being traded in late July. Lee(4-0) turned in his fourth straight solid, or in this case terrific outting as he threw a complete game while allowing only two hits and one run while striking out eleven while winning 8-1. His ERA in the National League [...]

The Philadelphia Phillies(66-49, 1st in NL East) had a good weekend against the Braves and put a slight bit of distance between those two teams now. The Marlins also won two out of three games, so the Marlins still stand 4.5 games back, so the Phillies still have a fire lit under them. This week, [...]

The Philadelphia Phillies(64-48, 1st in NL East) may have finally figured out their troubles since the trade deadline this week. This week, after being swept by the Marlins, the offense may have finally come back to life during a three game set in Chicago. Cliff Lee has been outstanding as he has three wins in [...]
