OFFICIAL: 2011 Philadelphia Phillies

[Mosbius Designs]

Let's get this started

[slvrdubbin]

Dom Brown broken hand... should be interesting when he returns, I think he'll feel alot less pressure.

[GLI_r8cer]

exploratory surgery for chutley??

[Mosbius Designs]

[Mosbius Designs]

Cholly got a two year extension that keeps him here through 2013. Figure that will be just about time when he may want to retire and then the Phils can bring in Ryno to succeed him.

Amaro got a four year extension. He deserved it, just not so sure how I feel about it.

And I'm about *thisclose* to buying this shirt off of birdland.com:

Nice!

My new Lee jersey came this week, only a few weeks now from opening day!

[b.donahue61]

I'm not ready for the season to start. I just want the boys healthy

[Mosbius Designs]

Only a couple days away. Hopefully the boys will keep the ship afloat without chase. At least we know that oswalt can be counted on for the lulz

[Mosbius Designs]

Lidge out 3-6 weeks

[b.donahue61]

Lidge out 3-6 weeks

Lidge can't blow saves from the DL

[Mosbius Designs]

Lidge can't blow saves from the DL

True, but in all seriousness...losing an arm isn't what the pen needs right now.

And he did sign my WS08 uniform for me in DC two years ago, so he's OK in my book

[Scottapotch]

How do you guys feel about Contreras taking over the closing duties? Need to figure out my fantasy team..haha.

[Mosbius Designs]

I think its the right move. Keep Madson where he's comfortable in the setup role. The old man still has it, based on last year's performance.

[Scottapotch]

I picked up Madson late in the draft cause I know he's good but I'm scared to pick up Contreras cause he's SO old.

Good luck with your team this year sirs.

[Glen Quagmire]

I was wondering when this party would get started

Ha...I'm sure he's really 43 or 44 by now. Who's your team?

I was wondering when this party would get started

Yep. We've got some of the regulars back...it'll pick up on friday.

[Glen Quagmire]

anybody going to any of the games this weekend? I opted not to go because I hate the cold

[Mosbius Designs]

I might see if I can get some tickets on stub hub the morning of and drive up. Regardless, ill be going to at least one of the games in dc in a few weeks.

[Glen Quagmire]

way off topic but I wanted to invite everyone out to our GTG, we are super excited for this year as we finally have a location that is big enough.(it only took us 6 years). Anyway I hope to see some of you there, I help organize the event but I am also one of the sponsors so stop by my Nationwide booth and say hi.

[Mosbius Designs]

Sesamie place! Oh man that takes me back. Ill be driving up the next weekend for the porsche swap meet at hershey park...so I won't be able to swing it. It would be nice to associate with the home team people, though

[Mosbius Designs]

Less than 24 hours away

[Angina]

wowowowow. haha.

[Mosbius Designs]

So glad I left work early for that game

[brownhornet]

that was nice.

[Angina]

btw looking forward to more shenanigans like laser guy, green man, and fatkidthrowupongirl... cause fans in philly are the worst.

I mentioned earlier in the thread that I probably wasn't going to come up to any of the games this weekend. F it. I want to see Cliff. On to Stub Hub!


EDIT:

SUCCESS! My wife and I will be in section 244 tonight

[yellowbird]

diamond club? get raked over the coals?

[Mosbius Designs]

diamond club? get raked over the coals?

Nah, isn't the Diamond club behind home plate? These are out in left field right in front of Harry the K's. I did over-pay for them...but this was too big of a game to pass up. The place is going to be nuts tonight, I can't wait. Not getting home until probably 2 or 3 am is going to suck, though I wish I still lived in Mount Laurel

[yellowbird]

derp. shouldve known since i sat in sec 143 yesterday. bring a hoodie cause its gonna be chilly

[Mosbius Designs]

Heh. It was chilly alright. I'm absolutely exhausted now, but it was so worth it. I couldn't even hear that little girl say Cliff's name as she was reading the starting lineup...the crowd erupted just as she was finishing Wilson Valdez

[Glen Quagmire]

this team sucks

[Angina]

so Cole Hamels struggle tomorrow and phillies lose 5-2 or something like that, at which point everyone will eliminate them from the playoffs.

im almost more anxious to see games that joeblah pitches. its almost more exciting to me to see if he can win us some games against other team's #4 or #5 starters...
