Lidge, etc . . . see multiple posts above, move on (although the balk was a new twist)

Well at the very least they stopped the bleeding

Nice sweep this weekend. Lets do it again to the Dodgers.

Philly should have kept J.A. Happ. The guy is just killing right now (CG/2 hitter vs ST.L). Him being out of the division is a good thing.

At this point I think I can throw a no hitter against the Phils, are their bats in the Colorado humidor

Although pitching well I like Oswalts bat much better, at this point we need any bat we can get - plus he plays a mean left field in a pinch

Since the trade:


Happ (7 GS, 40.2 IP) 4-2, 3.32 ERA, 32 K, 20 BB, 1.107 WHIP

Oswalt (7 GS, 47.2 IP) 4-1, 1.89 ERA, 41K, 15 BB, 0.99 WHIP


Happ is pitching well, but Oswalt is clearly doing better. The win totals are the same, but with the way the Phillies have been hitting recently, I don't think Happ would have 4 wins if he was still on the Phils.

I like Happ and think he may a good pitcher but today and next year i go with Oswalt, these two years are our best window maybe for a bit

Oswalt has been solid sans the first outing, he even looks looser which is good

What a game last night! (Lidge is still awful)

Look out....the bats are alive!

Prediction. Phils win division by 3 games.
