Friday, May 28th, 2010The Phillies sent one of the best offensive teams in baseball to New York for a three-game set and scored exactly as many runs as they would have if they had sent the Peanuts Gang. And those guys are fictional. There’s simply no good news for the offense these days as last night […]
Phils torn on whether it would be easier to get their offense to score or their pitchers to allow minus one runs per game
Thursday, May 27th, 2010I think the minus one contingent has come up with some exciting ideas that shouldn’t be dismissed out of hand.
The Phillies simply aren’t scoring runs these days. That trend continued last night as they were shut out by the Mets. Over the last four games, Ross Gload has driven in 67% of the runs […]

In their last three games the Phillies have been shut out twice and nearly no-hit once. In the other game they were shut out through eight […]

It took more than one player to get the Phils into their mini-skid. It wasn’t particularly pretty, but yesterday it took more than one to pull them out of it.
