I need to get some more games in. Maybe one tonight but I'm going to Toronto Wednesday night through Friday. I managed another loss to the Phillies. Micah Owings was great though. I put an inside pitch right on the black (but middle of the zone) that Howard crushed for a 2 run shot. Other than that, gave up only 4 hits in 6 innings, one walk and 9 Ks. Game was close until the bullpen blew it. I'm getting no home runs from my squad and despite out hitting them 12-11, I lost 7-2. Good news is that Brandon Phillips is finally healthy and will return to the lineup after being out a few games. He's been one of my best players. |

Well I got swept by the Phillies never scoring more than 2 runs in a game. I'm probably a little rusty but not scoring is frustrating. The last game really sucked. Hamels went the distance but it was another close game they broke open late. It was 2-1 in the 8th and I walked the bases loaded with 2 outs to pitch to Hamels. Either force him out or get him out. They leave him in and he gets a two run single for his second hit of the day. Annoying! They score 4 in the 8th and cruise to a 7-1 win. Thames hit a HR so I finally ended that drought. |

What's your take on things this year then? Are you enjoying your franchise or not really? |

I'm still enjoying my franchise. I've learned to accept the lousy fielding. Just this morning a ball went right through Brandon Phillips chest as though he never existed. Stuff like that shouldn't be happening anymore but it does. I beat Cleveland 11-3 in my first interleague game. Phillips went 3-4 with a HR and is great. I'm 19-23 now and 6-15 at home! It was nice to score some runs. My pitching bounced back but my starters have been good for awhile. It was my pen that was blowing up lately. |

Beat Cleveland 4-0 yesterday/this morning and am two games under .500. Final game with Cleveland today but I have a three game set with Houston after that. That is crucial that I don't lose another series and fall further behind the division leading Astros. I rested two regulars in my last game and will probably rest Phillips, Thames and Encarnacion today to be fully prepared for Houston. I do have a day off after that series. |
