So, they can throw the ball pretty well too. Would love to see San Diego sweep San Fran and have the Phils win 2/3 from the Braves so that all three teams end the season with the same record.

San Francisco is on a remarkable run, thouhgh. They have now allowed 54 runs over their last 28 games (1.93 runs per game). That’s silly.

They are scary to me because of their pitching. And you know, a guy named Pat just might want to make a statement.

Of course they didn’t win it all last year with Lee being virtually unhittable, so who knows what will happen. I think they’re in better position this year. Bullpen is worrisome and Rollins and Polanco are worrisome, but I think they feel like they’re as good as the best teams in baseball now and not like they will have to beat someone better than them to win.

That third starter has worked out ok, don’t you think?

I’d guess Rollins will play pretty much all the time and I don’t know what he does with Victorino. But I think he’ll get him a lot of rest.

I think the pitchers are harder. I’m okay with almost everything except Madson pitches everyday.

Looking forward to the playoffs. If I could have picked my top two issues to resolve from last year’s post-season they would be a third starter and a right-handed bat. I think the Phils answered both of those questions.

It was kind o fnice, actually, to see Lidge take over a ninth inning with a six run lead and still get them out without allowing a run to score.

I get the idea that the Braves will be facing teh pin stripes this weekend, but not the regular guys who wear them. Looks like the rest thing isbeing accomplished… how you both do that and keep everyone sharp is something I guess i have to trust Charlie to do.

Unless Rollins needs another simulated game.
