  • is anyone as disgusted as I am?

    even losing to the yanks last year wasn't as painful.

    This Giants team is average! WTF are we doing.

    I feel the same way. But average as they are, they are making the plays and getting the hits. Our over paid "superstars" are not.

        He babled something about wanting to bring him in, in the 8th? Talked about how Oswalt came to Dubee and said he was ready if he wanted to use him, and he felt like using him, I didnt catch an explanation in his slack-jaw yokeling.

        He also said how Rollins "usually" hits the ball to the right side and didn't feel like he had to put a bunt on. (Werths double in the 8th). When will everyone realize 2007 Rollins is not walking through that door folks.

          More importantly when will this team realize that they can't just flip a switch and "turn it on" when they need to. They were hitting .216 as a team going into last nights game where they promptly left 13 men on base in a MUST win game? They've had the attitude that things will just "happen" and someone will step up when they need them too. Guess what guys? If you want to pull a rabbit out of your hat, you have to put it in there first!! There's no magic here. Everyone has to start to hit and stop waiting and hoping for "someone" to do it for you!!

          This is the best Phillies team I can remember and they're playing about as weakly as any I've seen.

            Perhaps the lads bought into the 'favorites to win it all' BS. (I wondered if the guys making them favs had actually watched them play the last 2 months or where just looking at the H2O and the Phils remarkable late seson record. In any case, they don't seem to have the fire they've displayed the last several seasons.

            Sometimes teams get hot during the playoffs, as was the case with the Wild Card Cardinals several years ago. Sometimes they go cold, as was so often the case with the dominant Atalanta teams for 15 years. The Phillies have really not hit well since May and are now just north of God Awful. They might pull off 3 in a row, but I fully expect them to lose again today to the Freak.

            I'm disappointed, but being a long time Phillies fan, it's nothing I'm not used to.The talk of a Phils' dynasty always seemed a reach to me. If they retool the bullpen and replace Werth's right handed bat in the OF, there's no reason they can't be a very strong contender for another couple years.

            Three things do concern me: Is Rollins in serious decline or was it just a bad year? Is there a lingering problem with Utley's hand and if so, will it be resolved by next Spring? And will Howard ever pull his head from his ass and keep it there? He started so nicely in the Spring, showing more plate disciple, hitting the ball where pitched, and really cutting down on the strike outs. That's a distant memory now, as flails away pathetically so often in key spots. I'd love to see them move him if they could get reasonable quality in return.

            I will be fine this fall and winter with 3 other outcomes, one of which has already taken place. 1) Asshole Cox didn't retire with a WS win. 2) The Skanks don't win the WS. (Teixiera going down was a bonus goody) and 3) The Cowturds don't get to play in Jerrah's pleasure dome come Feb, 2011.

              Disgusted? No. Disappointed? Sure. They made mistakes in the field, left some runs on the table and the manager made some bad decisions with the pitchers.

              But I won't give up on these guys, not ever.

                It simply could be the long seasons wearing down on them. They've played a lot of games the last four years and all we've done is bring in pitching. We haven't really brought in any bats to help out the team except Polanco and he might be hurt. Hell, everyone might be hurt.

                    Sure. Utley is a shell of who he was last year. It should still be 0-0.

                      I guess the dope with the broom doesn't know that the Phillies won one game.

                        Either Roy doesn't have his best stuff or the Giant have a really good game plan for him.
