I think the Phils can get by without Stutes, Bastardo and even Oswalt. But they’re going to need all of their first three starters and Madson.

Oh yeah, and they’ll also need to score some runs.

BTW. Anyone see the cover of this week’s Sports Illustrated. Lee and Madsen have the SI cover curse hung upon them. The editors must be from NY.

Thankfully, the 2011 Phils look like they’re built for the postseason.. now they just need to execute.

This says that of 20 100-win teams since 1995, two have won the World Series.

So I’m not sure how many 100-win teams made it to the World Series, but I think it has to be a lot. Just took a quick look — 1976-78 a 100-win team won three in a row. 1967-70 four in a row.

I was surprised to see as many regulars on the field as we did last night. Pinch-hitting is a good sign.

With you, Jim, on winning the World Series would go a long ways towards making this the best Phillies team ever. The sad fact is that the thing the other teams in franchise history that won at least 100 games have in common is that they did not even make it to the World Series.

All they need to do is back it up with a WS win, and I don’t think there’ll be much of an argument.
