OH HAPPY DAY!! PHILLIES WIN 5-3 AGAINST THE REDS!!

Oh Happy Day!!!

 The Philadelphia Phillies gave Cole Hamels his first win of the season, and Brad Lidge got his first save as the Phillies beat the Cincinnati Reds at Cincy today 5-3 to take a split of the 4 game series 2-2. It was a great series with the Phils taking the first and last, and the Reds taking the two in between.Today the Phillies scored 3 runs in the first by a leadoff HR by none other than JIMMY ROLLINS! Than Pat Burell (2 HR in the game) and Jenkins hit them back to back in the first as well, to take a 3-0 lead.

OH HAPPY DAY!!! PHILLIES WIN!!!!! 8-7 in 10 innings!!!!

OH HAPPY DAY!

The Philadelphia Phillies beat the Washington Nationals 8-7 after a 10 inning offensive slugfest at Citizen's Bank Park in Philadelphia. Just last night, Cole Hamels and Tim Redding combined to give up 5 hits, and 1 run. Today both pitching staffs combined for 30 hits and 15 runs!!! Moyer had a 5 run first inning, and the Phils answered back by hitting 6 in the 6th, only to have the game knotted up at 7 all going into the 10th. Then Jesus Colome allowed Jimmy Rollins to get to third with only 1 out. Intentionally loading the bases by putting Utley and Howard on, Jayson Werth came up, and got walked on 4 pitches!!! WALK OFF WALK TO JAYSON WERTH!!! JIMMY ROLLINS COMES IN TO SCORE!!! THE FANS AREN'T THROWING HOT DOGS AND BEER BOTTLES!!! OH HAPPY DAY!!!

The Phillies Season Preview! w/ Anthony E.!!!!!

MLB Nation, and all baseball fans on FanNation,

This year the Phillies will have arguably the best infield in the NL with Ryan Howard at first, Chase Utley my MVP pick at second, the reigning MVP Jimmy Rollins at SS, and an average offensive, but one of the best at the defense of the hot corner, Pedro Feliz at third. A decent pitching staff with two or three studs in the starting rotation (Cole Hamels, Brett Myers, Kyle Kendrick) and a decent bullpen with two studs as well (Romero, Madson, Lidge {if he is healthy}). A speedy outfield with Victorino and Jenkins, and Werth on occasion will combine with Burrell on offense (if he keeps his momentum from last year) and this outfield is pretty decent. Ruiz at catcher, and the bench? DECENT! That seems to be the magic word for everything but the infield. Well that's the truth. Even last year with a career year from J-Roll the MVP, an off year for Howard (47 HR, 136 RBI), and a near MVP season by Utley cut by injury (.332 AVG, 22 HR, 103 RBI, 104 R, .410 OBP, .566 SLG), and a late season surge by Burrell (30 HR, 97 RBI), plus stunning defensive play from everyone, this team still needed a late season choke by the Mets to win the division on the last day by ONE GAME! That means decent just won't cut it this year. I have the Phillies at the Wild Card spot. But I would rather prefer the NL EAST TITLE defense obviously. But so it goes. So will the Phillies repeat? Or will a bad spring like they always have, hobble them to Wild Card contention, or just plain sucking? All I can say, is this is the year to build off our experiences from last year, and take home the WS Title. Easier said then done, but I think they are capable. Monday at 3:05 EST time is first pitch from Citizens Bank Park in Philly against the Nationals. Will it be the start of a NL East title defense, a Wild Card season, or just the perfect season to add to that 10,000+ loss total? We shall see...
