Oswalt to the Phillies…Meerkat is jizzing himself as we speak
Posted on29. Jul, 2010 by SKI.
PHILADELPHIA (AP)—Three-time All-Star Roy Oswalt gave his OK to a trade from Houston to Philadelphia on Thursday, becoming the latest ace to join the hard-charging Phillies. The Astros dealt Oswalt and cash to the two-time NL champions for pitcher J.A. Happ and two speedy prospects, outfielder Anthony Gose and shortstop Jonathan Villar. Oswalt is 143-82 with a [...]

Time to step up …
Posted on23. Jul, 2010 by Meerkat.
As I write up this glorious post … the Fightins are a half-game up on those ass-fuck Mets. That means the world seems right … for at least 5 minutes. But the big problem with the fightins is injuries. Chase Utley is out, and it is affecting Jayson Werth in the worst way. Dude is [...]

Best pitching stories of MLB’s 1st half, Youngins or Vets?
Posted on13. Jul, 2010 by Stake.
The beauty of baseball, there is always something interesting or surprising, and usually something that has never been done or seen. Whether its 4 no-hitters before the All-Star break, or an umpire blowing the call on final out of a would-be perfect game, baseball always manages to play out in an entertaining fashion one way [...]

Who’s the MLB’s best second baseman?
Posted on17. Jun, 2010 by Goodplaye.
I’m starting to like these player comparison posts, here’s another good one for you. You get to pick one second baseman to start your team around, who you taking? There are actually more guys worth considering than I would have thought. I originally came up with this because we have Sox, Yanks, and Phils fans [...]

Awwwww … yeah!!!!!! It’s MOOPH time. I know, calm down, you have been waiting for this for some time, right? Probably not. I get it. Phillies chatter is not exactly how you pass your time. Especially here in the NW (for those readers that actually understand that this is a NW sports blog). But what [...]

A jumbled NL East below the Fightins
Posted on23. May, 2010 by Meerkat.
After that big spanking by Philly, seems like the Mets are slipping back into that clown suit they look so good in. Which in turn, makes me feel good. But now those Bravos are beginning to gain confidence, winning 5 straight. I look forward to the series at the beginning of June to see if [...]

Where do you see yourself at age 47?
Posted on12. May, 2010 by Stake.
Counting down the years until retirement? Floating down the river, beer in hand, snagging fish from the water below? How does throwing a 2 hit, complete game shutout for a team with the best record in the NL sound? Highly unlikely? For Phillies’ Jamie Moyer, that is reality. Last Friday, Moyer went the distance against [...]

RIP Robin Roberts, Johan Santana’s Nightmare
Posted on06. May, 2010 by Meerkat.
Phillies HOF pitcher Robin Roberts passed away today at the age of 83. I never saw Robin Roberts play, but I would have loved to. Roberts was a member of that upstart pennant winning 1950 Phillies team dubbed The Whiz Kids. Robin Roberts played with Curt Simmons at my hometown minor league team the Wilmington [...]

Tase that tresspassin sucka!
Posted on04. May, 2010 by Meerkat.
Last night at Citizen’s Bank Park in the 8th inning during a Phillies game, somebody decided to do something galactically stupid … run on the field. The idea of a spectator running on the field is not newsworthy because it’s been happening as long as there have been games played. But this instance had an [...]
