We all, as fans, need to be congratulated! The atmosphere we've created in this town is why Cliff Lee is coming back. Players love playing here and our passion has yielded a euphoric environment within that clubhouse. An environment that every player throughout the league envies. You want players on your team that care more about THAT feeling, more than the money. That feeling of standing on the mound and not being able to hear yourself think. Money can't buy that emotion. Not every player... Read Full Story

Yesterday afternoon Phillies' General Manager Ruben Amaro announced that they had acquired Astros starting pitcher Roy Oswlat in exchange for 27 year-old starting pitcher J.A. Happ and two minor league players. The initial reaction in Philadelphia and throughout MLB is that Philadelphia just punched their ticket to the World Series, the first NL team to do so three years in a row since the mid 1940's. Upon hearing the news of the trade, I was initially excited as well. Then I began to invest... Read Full Story

Congratulations Phillies fans! With an extremely riveting ending to the NLDS, Ryan Howard blasts a 2-run double to tie the game with 2 outs in the 9th. Absolutely amazing! Read Full Story

Below is a well-done video courtesy of Newsy. In the past week or so there have been a series of players getting hit directly in the head. The newer version of the batting helmet doesn't look all that much different from the existing versions, but a handful of players seem opposed. It wasn't long ago hockey players didn't want to wear helmets at all. The reality is that it is going to take someone to get knocked into a coma or worse before the appropriate steps are taken. Could be next week... Read Full Story

Your first instinct might be to answer, "Absolutely!", when asked, "Is Ichiro worthy of the Hall-of-Fame?" However, in his 9 seasons, he just shy of 2000 hits with a .333 lifetime batting average, 81 HRs, 505 RBI, and 339 SB. His rookie season he was one of few to win both he ROY and MVP awards and once had 262 hits in one season. Needless to say that had Ichiro came over to play from Japan sooner is his career than he'd be a lock for the Hall. Below is Jon Paul Morosi's article from... Read Full Story

Bronson Arroyo is just one of many professional ballplayers who feel the need to pop pills to stay close to or in front of their competition. His father says he was taking supplements since he was 5 years old (did I read that correctly?). Stories like this show us exactly how severely MLB executives screwed up the game of baseball. Don't be fooled that the era is over. Pharmaceutical companies are spending more than ever on research and development of the next great supplement. It's hard to... Read Full Story

If I'm going to post one Washington Nationals related article a year, it might as well be that of one of baseball's best writers in Thomas Boswell. That being said, I think his outlook on the Nationals is far too optimistic. The Nationals are a doomed franchise that plays within the most competitive division in the league. Even if they are able to sign the #1 overall draft pick in Stephen Strasburg, they still have to take care of some serious issues like growing their fan base and not... Read Full Story
