todays game.

Ben Revere and Darin Ruf both came up with defensive gems! The Phillies relievers were very effective for 6 innings. There has been little to talk about this spring, so I just wanted to touch on some positives.

Was the game televised? I didn't see it on Comcast Sportsnet, Comcast Net (or whatever it's called), or MLB Network. How'd you see it?

Wow, never heard of it but I just looked it up. Won't do me much good now because only like 3 games of ST aren't televised, but maybe when I'm out of town I could use it. Thanks

Here's some positives for the first 10 days:

J Mayberry Jr .429, 6 for 14, 2 HR, 5 RBI
C Ruiz .385, 5 for 13, 2 HR 6 RBI
M Byrd .364, 8 for 22, 1 HR 4 RBI
D Ruf .318, 7 for 22, 2HR 6 RBI

Good to see these Guys are producing early. can't help but notice that they are all right handed hitters. Also,Ruf and Mayberry are bench players. I am hoping that Ruf will win a spot on the roster over Abreu. Ruf hits right handed pitching very well.

The last game I watched was against Baltimore and they look horrible getting their ass kicked all over the ballpark.

Yes but Mayberry is only hitting .250 (1 for 4) with RISP and Ruiz is hitting .000 (0-2) with RISP and 2 outs. These are very concerning trends that need to turn around if this team is going to win 90 games like you say.

Well yeah, but only 6 ABs. They'll all get going, even these current slackers:
Asche .150
Brown .105
Utley .125
Rollins .167
Howard .200

Yes, they should get going but the RISP stats cannot be overlooked. Hitting .000 with RISP and 2 outs, when the team needs you most, is unacceptable and probably a sign of things to come.

Another big loss to Atlanta. I watched the last several innings and watch Cameron Rupp hit a nice hit. 8-1 and another ass-whoopin'.
