This is the time of year where this blog becomes more of a Phillies blog than anything else. Tonight the Phillies will take on the Nationals and Cole Hamels, the Phillies ace will take the mound. Twittering here.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: We're back. And despite the fact the NL East Champions are floundering? foundering? in Florida, right now, there is ONE thing to get excited about. The Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day. Outlook, grim.
2 podcasts in a week? You are kidding me right? No, we're not kidding at all. You lose 2 straight playoff games, you are going to get a 10 minute rant on the two games. Also, the Wild and Wacky, KFed and more...
The Phillies will try to recover from their game one loss. Let's get after it today and take one back in our home. Follow along with HammRadio as I twitter from the game.
Ryan Howard says he'd give up his MVP for a World Series title. I too would gladly give up my Rutland Street Stick Ball MVP's from 1986 through 1988 for one as well! We'll be twittering from the game!!! Follow us here...
I woke up this morning exhausted from an incredibly tough day. Sometimes sports can bring you the highest highs and the lowest lows. Today was the highest of them all. Can You Feel It? YES!!
Watch the video of the final out of today's games and check out my thoughts on tonight's game. As the Phils take 2 of 3 from the Braves and sit atop the NL East.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: What a rollercoaster this season has been. So-called Phillies fans have been waiting for this year's "Choke" moment. Uncle Cholly couldn't believe it. Neither could we.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: lot of people don't know why a team that's 4 games out of first place and 2 games out of the Wild Card are drawing so many fans.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: The Phils are 2.5 games out and When pressed on why he has benched Pat Burrell the $13 Million man and whether his salary would have an affect on who plays or not, our manager gets a little Cartman on us.
Rod Barajas almost cost the Phillies against a division rival and that blunder cost the Phils their closer. Barajas should suffer the consequences of his actions. But he just wants to laugh it off.
Coming into the most recent 10 game homestand, the Phillies were faced with going 7-3 to get to .500 at the end of the stretch. The Phillies did just that.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: The last time we checked in on the Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day, the Phillies were 3-10 and Bitter. They are 17-11 since then.
So I'm torn in this mayoral race over protecting my civil rights, voting for the smartest guy or the richest guy. But all I can think about is why Charlie Manuel can't handle a 12 pitcher bullpen.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: The Phillies are 3-10. Lose to the lowly Nationals in Extra Innings. Brett Myers in the bullpen. And Shane Victorino chimes in.
It hasn't been a very good day. Phillies lost to the Mets last night, Manuel blows up, and the VT Tragedy Hangs over us. Fortunately, today is another day.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: Well, the Phillies are 1-6 to start the season. And are on the brink of their worst start since the Felske-era. But Uncle Cholly is still positive.

How is it possible, that a season that started out with so much expectation and promise, that the Phillies were completely unprepared to win more than one game in the opening week. For the second year in a row!
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: The phils drop their 3rd game in the row, pretty much the same as last season against the Cardinals. It's going to be a long season.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: Well, Ryan Madson has given up 2 extra inning homeruns in consecutive games. Ultimately ruining good starting pitching. Charlie has thoughts on it.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: We kid the Manager alot here and for good reason. But sometimes the guy makes sense and doesn't sound like so much of a Cartoon character. So we give credit when credit is DUE!
Bobby Abreu was traded. Many fans lament the trade. The loud boorish ones are happy that we unloaded one of the greatest hitters in club history, for nothing. NOTHING.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: Well the spring is over, and Chris Coste is completing his Ron Stone impression in Scranton, Cole Hamels has drawn Uncle Charlie's attention.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: The Phillies manager wraps up the season in a way only he can. Evoke Bon Jovi while lamenting the missing pieces of this near playoff team.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: I have to be honest, I haven't spent enough time ripping Manuel, because they've been winning. And his quotes have been getting better?
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: The Phillies just lost the most important game of the season, and Manuel is talking about how David Ortiz responds to striking out
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: So Utley is NOW your every day second baseman. And Manuel NEVER had to make the decision about who his every day player was
After 12 games against teams that were in first place in their respective divisions when they played them, the Phillies answered the challenge. But they couldn't sweep the Braves so they suck.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: Another homer served up by the closer. But this time it doesn't hurt. Wolf taken out to a chorus of boos. What does skip have to say?
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: Billy Wagner serves up an 9th inning homer to blow his second save of the season. The last blown save he won by using Jose Offerman's head. Ruined another masterful effort by Brett Myers. Why didn't he pitch the 8th?
The Phillies finish probably their finest week since the beginning of the year. Offense led Burrell and Abreu while Jim Thome returns. Next up, Florida and Atlanta. How long will the joy last?
While the Phils continued to tread water this week, so did the rest of the division. No team winning more than 3 games. Yet the Phillies dropped to 7 games back in the division.
The Phillies ended the week on a high note taking 2 out of 3 from the struggling Cubbies. Unfortunately, the offense has sputtered and Friday's win was pure luck. They need more than just luck however.
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: Billy Wagner serves up an 8th inning homer in ode to his bullpen mate Tim Worrell. But the Phillies win when a ball bounces off Jose Offerman's head. And the Manager says???
Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day: Phils fall 5 games under .500 as Worrell serves up another gopher ball. Phils offense is struggling. What does the guru have to say?
This was the week the fans were waiting on. Going into the Atlanta series, the Phils were at .500. Now, they're sitting 3 games under after being swept. Not good.
Phillies stay at .500 going 3-3 again this week. This might not be good enough to get fans back into the stands, but it will keep the Fightin's in the hunt.
New feature... The Charlie Manuel Quote of the Day. When Manuel was hired, my Dad wasn't too thrilled, but did say, he's bound to give great quotes. And become the next Danny Ozark.
Phillies open the season 3-3 while the Phaithful have already given up on the season. Oh, hope Springs eternal negativity. Welcome to Phillies baseball everyone!
