The Phils needed that one last night against the Astros. Cole Hamels did a solid job and the bats came through . They're hanging around and that's what you've got to do.
I couldn't help but read Paul Hagen's column about the Phillies number one draft pick, pitcher from Rice University, lefty Joe Savery . He sounds like a good kid just like Houston quarterback Kevin Kolb who the Birds made their first pick this year. I think too much is made up of this will Philly like this kid or not. How can we be so picky about what the personality is of our athletes. We haven't won since forever but we seem to be the pickiiest fans in the country. If the kid can play then Phily should get over his personality if they don't like it.
Bringing the casinos to Chester isn't going to solve its crime and failing schools problems. It didn't work in Atlantic City so why do people think it will work in Chester.
