Won’t happen, Yanks don’t want his contract.

By perfect, I mean 13 for 13 and 2 for 2 in the playoffs…that’s all they will really need for a closer in the playoffs…game 4 in the NLCS and game 4 in the World Series.

Have a nice weekend Phillies phans. I will be away until Tuesday with a much needed work hiatus. Lets hope for a bounce back.

If by perfect, you mean no blown saves in the two or three chances he gets, then have at it, Lights Out.

Mad Dog won’t see any more work this weekend. 40 or so pitches? I am wondering if Uncle Cholly gives Lidge another shot…he looked mighty fine tonight. Wouldn’t it be something if he finds it and has himself a perfect September/October?

Bastardo only threw 10 pitches—is he available tomorrow? As much as I feel you need to get out there the next day, Madson’s next day is four straight.

Brutal loss, but ya can’t win em all. If things go as they have been all year, the Phillies will win the next two games and all will be fine. Is it me, or have they lost the first game of more than half their series this year? And I really hate Ryan Zimmerman…he is a Phillies killer.

Well them’s the breaks. Madson was due for an implosion. Hopefully he’s taken up his quota of ER for the year.

Wow. That is all I have. Wow.

Two down. You can’t put him on.

By: drmonkeyarmy

drmonkeyarmy — Sat, 20 Aug 2011 04:23:22 +0000

He won’t be available for 2 days after this. You were right, should have stuck with Bastardo.

Third straight night for MadDog.

Shit. Flair after flair.

He is having a hard time putting hitters away.

A strikeout would be very nice right now

By: Utley's Hair

Utley's Hair — Sat, 20 Aug 2011 04:15:22 +0000

Well, THAT was ugly.

If Madson catches that, it would have been a triple play.

By: Utley's Hair

Utley's Hair — Sat, 20 Aug 2011 04:13:31 +0000

Crap.

Ramos concerns me—at least tonight. Double play would be easier than with JDub

I have a bad feeling about this.

Great at bat by Werth.

I would also expect Oswalt to start. I think they will ok without bringing up anybody from the Iron Pigs assuming Oswalt does indeed start. Herndon should be available tomorrow too.

By: Utley's Hair

Utley's Hair — Sat, 20 Aug 2011 04:04:33 +0000

Part of me expects Oswalt to start, and a roster move to bring up a reliever for a short term solution. But I’ve been wrong a few times already tonight.

At least he didn’t strike out.

Now would be a good time to show that famed Ross Gload power.

Madson warming up in the pen. Sets up an interesting situation tomorrow. I guess Lidge will be the closer and Stutes the set-up guy with Schwimmer the 7th inning guy if need by. Of course, no idea who will start.

By: Utley's Hair

Utley's Hair — Sat, 20 Aug 2011 03:56:40 +0000

Actually, he went two in that Lee crash and burn in Atlanta in April. He’s also gone 1.2 a couple times.

By: Utley's Hair

Don’t think so, but I just can’t see using both Bastardo and MadDog tonight. But I’m a tad obsessive compulsive when it comes to that kind of stuff.

By: drmonkeyarmy

drmonkeyarmy — Sat, 20 Aug 2011 03:52:18 +0000

And Bastardo is just awesome. Yet another 1-2-3 inning with a pop up.
