June 17, 201016 yr Ok so just lay it all on the line here. We are now 3 games under .500 and 6.5 out of the division. panic button should have been hit 2 weeks ago. this teamm is just not getting it done. we are in games consistently but consistently come out on the losing end when we clearly shouldnt. idk what the f*** else to say about this team.
June 17, 201016 yr we be seller by deadline let see who we sell my feeling is season is mostly over unless bullpin get fix soon that unlikely and hitting get better that big question i looking forward to offseason to see if fredy e back who will be gone only thing i can say enjoy sport baseball and wait season to end
June 17, 201016 yr Panic button shouldn't have been hit 2 weeks ago. It still shouldn't be hit, imo. When July comes and we are in the same position, then we should hit the panic button.
June 17, 201016 yr In these situation, I would prefer strong seller more than scanty buyer, plus next higher draft pick.
June 17, 201016 yr Author Pinto DFA'd!!! EpicWINFTW! Finally, never thought Id see the day! is this true?? i actually thought it might happen tonight when he gave up that home run.....i think he will definitely get claimed and i hope he clears....he always seems to keep the ERA down.
June 17, 201016 yr why was buente even in there? It's like fredi had given up at 3-2 Who was he going to bring in? Not as if Buente was at fault anyway; if Cantu makes a play, he's out of the inning. The defense was horrible yet again tonight. Also, why was Pinto just DFA'd? To make room for Tim Wood? We couldn't at least trade Pinto for a player to be named later or something? He's not going to go unclaimed.
June 17, 201016 yr Yep Pinto DFA, Woody up tomorrow lol. this team is stupid. Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result
June 17, 201016 yr Author tim wood!!! is this a f***ing joke!!! i cannot stand wood, hes 5 runs waiting to happen. pinto has a better chance of getting out of it an inning than wood does.
June 17, 201016 yr The answers for this team are not within the organization as of now. Im all in favor of trading cody right now. We need bullpen arms and we also need to keep getting maybin major league at bats. This is just what id do. Get a lefty power bat for off the bench. Send down Bonifacio, buente, Hayes, Sosa, and Wood when his flight gets into FTL. Acquire 2 solid bullpen arms, and if giving Cody is what it takes, by all means go and do it.

This is so easier said than done. Care to mention any names? By the way, under your scenario, we have no backup catcher; honestly, we don't even have 25 guys.
June 17, 201016 yr pinto and RVH > wood... stupid stupid stupid team They can't call up RVH because he was just sent down. There is a 10-day minimum unless an injury occurs. Not that that makes our sending down RVH when he could have developed into a solid setup man given some time any smarter.

I know its easier said then done, those are just the kinds of things id do. We definitely need a backup catcher besides hays but probably wont get one since bake is do back in a few months. Other than that its not that difficult to find a lefty bat off the bench and a few relievers as the trade deadline nears.
June 17, 201016 yr After 65 games 2009: 32-33 / 6.0 GB 2010: 31-34 / 6.5 GB This proves that we tend to heat it up down the stretch. Plus with the Phillies struggling 87 wins like last year may be enough to make the playoffs.

I agree... but its funny how baseball "feels" sometimes. I'd bet at this point last year we felt "ok" with a chance... right now, we're not that far off the pace and most of us on here feel pretty dreadful about this team's chances in the long run. I sure hope I'm wrong but things just feel really bad right now.
June 17, 201016 yr Pretty funny that the rest of the lineup can't produce runs with Coghlan and Gaby hitting pretty damn well lately. Most of this seems to be Hanley's fault.
