Tarp Tape

Balls, Sticks and Stuff links to video of the Phillies helping the Coors grounds crew with the tarp on Sunday, in case you missed it.

There are times when you have to wonder why you follow the Phillies and root for them night after night. Sometimes I struggle for answers, but sometimes I just think it's because there are so many likeable players on the team -- Chase Utley, Ryan Howard, Jimmy Rollins, Chris Coste, Cole Hamels, Jamie Moyer, Aaron Rowand, Shane Victorino... the list goes on and on. The team's effort in Colorado yesterday to corral the infield tarp did everything to confirm that fact.

I prefer to focus on the tarp rather than the 10K loss milestone.

This team is full of players that are fun to watch and are killing themselves to win games (some exceptions). They have done well to stay within striking distance of the Mets with 3/5 of the rotation and no bullpen. I hope something breaks their way and the season stays interesting. But with so many holes in the rotation and bullpen, I don't see Gillick making a big move this season. It's a distant hope that Gordon and Myers can contribute in the second half. Gordon hasn't been healthy since last season. Myers belongs back in the rotation.

Good luck tonight to all the Phils at the AS game.

I am a Mets fan, but dont hate the Phils- I admire them for the way they got out helped the ground crew. Very impressive.Good for them!
