August 23, 200521 yr Philly fans on Mota Florida relievers allowed only one baserunner to complete today's six-hitter. Antonio Alfonseca followed Willis with a 1-2-3 inning, Guillermo Mota struck out five in two perfect innings and Todd Jones pitched the ninth for his 28th save in 30 chances, including 18 straight. ?Our bullpen is the best in the league,? said Mota, overlooking the relievers? 4.33 ERA. But the Marlins? pitching has been sensational lately, allowing a total of five runs in their past seven victories. Leave it to Sillies fans to overblow a simple comment from a simple person.

August 23, 200521 yr Phillies fans should be more offended by the stench coming from their underwear and the cheese whiz stains on their shirts than what Mota says.
August 23, 200521 yr Isn't a 4.33 ERA actually pretty good considering we've had a revolving door to AAA, and Bazardo gave up about 1,000,000,000 runs in that one relief appearance of his against the Mets. If Mota starts throwing the way he is capable, our top-3 bullpen guys are better than or on par with any other 'pen in baseball. Padres still have the deepest one...
August 23, 200521 yr Phillies fans just don't like Todd Jones. I remember listening to the Phillies broadcast during the long rain delay in Philly early this year in which they were surprised Jones had come out to entertain them (with some Phillies player) and the fans were cheerful. The Phillies do have a pretty good bullpen. Had we still have Mecir and Bump, I'd be willing to say we defietly have better talent in ours. However not being a big fan of Urbina's, I'd say we still do. It's just that Manuel does a better job of handling them. I love how he's not afraid to use Wagner in non-save situations and give some of his middle relievers shots at the easy 3-run saves.
August 23, 200521 yr That guy's avatar is awesome :lol 912341[/snapback] I didn't know Big Hugg played for the Phillies.
