Phillies Breakfast Links: June 8, 2009.

Baseball Daily Digest Blog: What’s Wrong with Jimmy Rollins?
Damned if I know, but he's been an out machine pretty much all season.

Phillies Notes: Jimmy Rollins believes he's found hitting glitch
Coincides almost perfectly with being dropped in the batting order. Amazing.

Phillies' rotation enjoying a renaissance
Hamels = Leonardo DaVinci? Moyer = Lorenzo Ghiberti?

Philly shows interest in Boston's Penny
They want Jason Donald to make up for losing Hanley Ramirez...

Phillies have bargaining chips in search for pitching
Untouchable: Kyle Drabek, Jason Knapp, and Dominic Brown.

Mets 7, Nationals 0 - Mets take two of three from woeful Nats
Currently sit three games behind the first-place Phillies, who come to town for three games this week.

Thunder victimized by 8-run inning
Reading falls by a score of 4-2; Lehigh Valley loses 4-1.

Tom Glavine may file grievance against Braves, report states
Says the Braves only released him for financial reasons, and to clear a roster spot for Tommy Hanson. I am shocked, SHOCKED that a baseball team would do such a thing.

The Fightins " Everyone in L.A. has an inflated perception of himself
My favorite guy ever.

Von Hayes gives away the bride. Shoulda been a polygamist marriage, with Hayes and five brides!   Wocka wocka!

Quick notes on your links:

Love Rollins hitting 6th.

Rotation benefits from pitching in San Diego and LA the last two days. Couple of the hardest place to hit homers.

Just say no tp Penny.

Good for Tom Glavine. I don’t care anything about him, but rules are rules and the Braves screwed him out of 1 MEELEON Dollars.

Here’s another winner from that meech.one dude.

For Who? My teammates.

For What? To Win.

How Much? Where do I sign?

re: Glavine

I generally agree with you, and I think it’s kind of funny when the players are dressed up and down for being “greedy” yet the owners and management rape them all the time whenever they can.

Glavine is a real soldier for the Union, for good and/or bad, so I’m sure he has the young players further down the food chain on his mind while he’s doing this.

and re: Rollins

Rollins has been an out machine but still has extra base pop, which suits him for 6th or 7th until he gets his head on straight (and even if he doesn’t…)

Money

Aren’t teams allowed to release players for money reasons? Isn’t that what they do all the time when they fail to exercise an option?

by David S. Cohen on Jun 8, 2009 9:47 AM EDT reply actions  

Not specifically for monetary reasons I guess. Not sure how it gets justified.

another no vote for penny

I think all five of our current starters, including Moyer and Bastardo, are likely to outperform Penny for the rest of this season.

If we got Penny it would make our rotation more symmetrical. Two fat righties and two skinny lefties and then whoever else.

Recs for both of you.

Both my sister and I noticed last night that Bastardo’s small stature and his strut make him appear surprisingly dwarf-like (little person-like?) on television.

In addition, he pitches lefty and hits righty…so I think we have found a winner.
