To recap: Vinnie struck out a bunch of guys early then blew up in the 6th inning--shocker

Win one, lose 7. The dildoes are still going strong.

Five reasonable innings out of VV. Just taking notes.

Nola returns today! Maybe he can turn things in our favor.. GO PHILLIES!

 

[northeastphillyguy]

Nola looks sharp in his return. 3 up-3 down. Control looking good.

Great job by Nola. No run support.

im so fucking sick of this organizations stance on prospects. I love how we only got like 4-5 sorta "elite" years from Howard and Rollins, because this franchise practically waits until their mid 20s it feels like before calling them up

now the same thing is happening to guys like Hoskins. Aboslutely NOTHING left to prove in minors, hes freaking 24 years old, and yet it takes an act of god for him to be given a shot

all i hear is "you dont wanna start the clock on him".............LOLOLOLOLOL, hes 24......cool, i can't wait to watch his 8 year career. yayyyyy.

just pathetic. Another sweet 1-0 loss today, because, i mean, who needs runs right? just keep playing all that great talent in bigs...........whats another 100 loss season for a franchise thats continues to break its own record for most losses in MLB history

The focus is on Tommy Joseph right now. They are not ready to give up on him. Hoskins may come up around the all star break.

Agreed. I'd rather watch the young guys with obvious talent mature as players up here in the big time vs watching a Saunders eek out his 1 year deal when we're going nowhere. We'll just have to wait for now while the losses pile up.

It's good to see Nola in fine shape.
