Go Phils! 5 in a row now, and team doesn't seem so suck when the bullpen is back healthy; although Lidge stil sucks, but a healthy Madson and Durbin are most needed.

Phils have won 5 in a row, and Utley will be back soon...

Among starters with at least 50 IP this season, Stephen Strasburg leads all of MLB in K/9 (12.42) and FIP (1.89).

With all due respect to Jason Heyward, is there any doubt Strasburg should be at the forefront of the NL Rookie Of The Year race? Those are absolutely staggering numbers for any pitcher, let alone a rookie.

I agree, Strasburg is my RoTY for the NL

Typical idiot umpire in the Rays vs. Tigers game. Blows a stolen base call at second by a good margin and throws the manager out for calling him out. One of the reasons I can't stand some of these umpires.

Great 2 out hitting Juan Pierre. All tied up at 1.

Then Vizquel. Lead acquired. 2-1

Wow. A lead? Off of Felix Hernandez?

Hernandez does not look as sharp as he did last Wednesday night. He's leaving a lot of stuff up late in the count.

Well there isn't much he can do to be sharper than Wednesday night, he was phenomenal, as he often is. We need Danks to shut them down now. This would be a big win.
