J-Roll takes his 'Q'

JIMMY ROLLINS is sporting some brand recognition on the heels of his MVP season. Likability? That's another matter, at least outside Philly. The shortstop for the first time has a "Q" score, which in the case of athletes measures how much consum

Hamels has night to remember

It arrived from the opposing locker room earlier in the day, completing the personal collection that Cole Hamels has been gathering from the Braves' dominant pitching staff of Tom Glavine, John Smoltz and Greg Maddux.

Myers seeks end to slump

They play two different positions and are dealing with a whole different set of problems, but Rich Dubee sees a lot of parallels between the early-season slumps of Ryan Howard and Brett Myers.

The kid stays in (the pitcher)

The Phils brought out the long ball last night, but a brilliant outing by Cole Hamels ensured it would have only taken one to beat the Braves. Hamels threw a complete game four-hit shutout, holding Atlanta to three singles and a soft line drive into left for a double. Feliz, Howard and Victorino hit home [...]

Myers picks a funny time to start long-tossing

Funny strange, not funny ha-ha. Not an expert on such things, but I’m just about positive they were suggesting that Brett Myers long toss in-between starts rather than during them. Myers’ offerings last night didn’t quite travel 120 feet, but it may have looked like they had to Atlanta hitters by the time the ball [...]

I got a beat-up glove, a homemade bat and a brand new pair of confused outfielders

Not sure exactly the nature of Charlie Manuel’s problem with Shane Victorino, but whatever it is it almost cost the Phillies a game last night. With both Victorino and Jayson Werth in the starting lineup, Manuel put Victorino in right and Werth in center. That’s just a terrible decision even if it doesn’t [...]

Jayson Werth FTW, Literally

Jayson Werth FTW! Werth hit three home runs Friday night in the inter-league opener against the Toronto Blue Jays en route to a 10-3 win. Two of his homers came against Jays starter David Purcey: a three-run home run to open the scoring in the second inning, and a grand slam that gave the Phillies an [...]

BDD: Fixing the Brett Myers Situation

After last night’s hell that was watching Brett Myers pitch to Atlanta Braves hitters, I’ve mapped out at Baseball Digest Daily what I think the Phillies’ front office should do in order to limit how much he hurts the team.

BDD: Fun at CBP and The Ryan Report #04

Game chat: Toronto in town for interleague action

Left-handers Jamie Moyer and David Purcey clash when the Phillies and Jays resume their non-conference rivalry tonight at Citizens Bank Park. This on-going series with Toronto is intended to remind us of the 1993 World Series, but instead, reminds me of June of 2006, a time when the Phils were spiraling out of control and reliever Aaron Fultz made that spot start for the Phils up in Toronto. A month later, the Phils would throw in the towel and raffle...

Soggy stuff putting interleague opener in jeopardy

Periods of rain are expected to last through the evening with highs in the lower 60s, according to CBS 3. Winds expected to be 10 to 15 mph. Chance of rain near 100 percent. Then tonight, occasional rain will taper off closer to midnight. Lows in the upper 40s. [Link]

Friday: Hamels goes the distance; contract discussed

Following the first complete-game shutout of Cole Hamels’ career, Daily News scribe David Murphy poses a timely question: why not sign Hamels to a multiyear contract right now? [Link] This excellent, rainy-day question comes on the heels of another deal to a rising star, as the Brewers signed Ryan Braun to an 8-year, $45 million contract yesterday, which buys out his arbitration years and eats two years of free agency. Elsewhere, the Rays agreed on a three-year extension with left-hander...
