Heres my thing with qc. He once post that his mother died when he was young so he was raised by his aunt, she passed away in 08 and the only time he was happy was when we won it all. Yeah I know you can make a Life Channel Movie outta it "without the baseball" but fuck you. Lol

The stories are all Hallmark heartwarming:
"Evil Vixen Murders Dolt Husband"
"Insane Nanny Kills Mommy Perfect"
"Angry Stepchild Evens the Score"

In a game obsessed with averages, the Phillies offense is averaging 3.97 runs per game through their first 62 games. Yes, they’ve scored 3 or less, X amount of times, and that’s a problem… but when you score 4 runs a game, and your pitching staff allows less than 4 runs per game, you should win more than you lose. And that is exactly what the Phillies have done thus far in 2011 (a team ERA of 3.17 combined with an offense that averages 3.97 runs per game). Maybe that gap between ERA and Runs is too close… and maybe we are getting away with wins… but maybe that was the Front Office’s plan all along?

So the rumor coming out of Houston is Domonick Brown for Hunter Pence. That would be a good deal for this year but he's ready for a new deal and will want to get paid after this year. We have Brown tied up for a few years and he's young. I say no deal.

Spot on Paulie. We are in the Post Roid era and pitching is what you're going to need to win and we ate ahead of the curve. Runs are down everywhere.

Exactly Joe, I am sick of everybody bitching at the Phillies lack of fire power. All they have is the best record in baseball but for some thats not enough. Go figure.

On a side note the Cubs staff ERA is the worst in all of MLB - Maybe our hitters can pad some numbers this weekend.

I am curious what the ERA to runs/game ratio for the Giants would be. They have good pitching as well, but seem to have an even harder time getting runs in.

Hunter would be a big help and I am sure he would love play on a team that is a contender but that sounds like a long shot. I agree with you about Dom too. He is a young upcoming guy so it would be hard to see him go.

I checked the Phillies MLB rankings for the years 2011 and 2008 (pitching, fielding and batting) - from Fuxsports:
2011
Pitching 2nd
Fielding 5th
Batting 20th

2008
Pitching 6th
Fielding 12th
Batting 23rd

I suppose the stats don't really reflect my recollection of the strendths/weaknesses of the '08 team Vs the '11 team. Of course, stats are often misleading or incomplete especially if it's just an overview.
