Series Thread: Astros @ Phillies

[jvett77]

Now here's a 3-game series the Phillies will have no trouble sweeping. Right? Bad team and slightly worse record than the Phils. Keep the beer close if you're watching.

I would at least go Byrd, Howard, Ruiz, Asche, Ruf for 4 thru 8.

We shall see, jvett now that nearly 11 guys are still on waivers.

 

[Retroram52]

Too bad nobody has claimed Howard yet.

 

[Retroram52]

At least Ruf is playing in left field tonight. He needs all the playing time he can get.

 

[jvett77]

It's a blow to his ego. It will be interesting to see Singleton.

 

[Retroram52]

What the hell? looks like Kendrick has come to play setting down 6 in-a-row.

It's a blow to his ego. It will be interesting to see Singleton.

I agree jvett. The announcers on my telecast were discussing Singleton and the other player (whose name escapes me) that were involved in the Hunter Pence trade three years ago.

 

[Retroram52]

I guy getting paid what this stiff is getting paid batting .215 is a travesty.

 

[Retroram52]

What the hell? Maybe I should trash this guy every time he comes to bat. Howard sends a home run out!

 

[jvett77]

Why can't Howard do that everyday?

 

[Retroram52]

Twenty-two innings without a score was just snapped by Howard.

 

[Retroram52]

Why can't Howard do that everyday?

I think Howard is in audition mode in case some one claims him and the Phillies work out a trade. He still wants those gobs of Benjamins!

 

[Retroram52]

Kendrick has taken down nine in-a-row. This is what happens when you play a krappier team then yourself.

 

[Retroram52]

Revere gets on by a chopper infield base hit that was not handles very well by the Stros.

 

[Retroram52]

The announcers are discussing the Howard contract and I can't believe that this contract has an Option year that goes to 2017. What a joke. Helps us all.

 

[Retroram52]

Keuchel walks Byrd and Ruiz is up. Maybe we can add to our slim lead.

 

[Retroram52]

Not much has happen in the last couple of sides.

 

[jvett77]

Time for a 5th inning bust out.

 

[Retroram52]

Nice right field base hit by Asche. Two on with no outs. May be when can add to our lead.

 

[jvett77]

Retro, was Matt Dominguez that throw in player to be named later in the Pence trade?
