Howard to DL
Well, damn. That sucks. We're now a Jimmy Rollins tweak away from an infield of Ross Gload, Cody Ransom, Wilson Valdez, and Greg Dobbs. Pass the tissues....

Time for Jayson Werth to play up to his ability
In other news, pray, and for those who dont pray, start

It’s not like Werth hasn’t been playing up to his ability…
Pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will.
you’re right. It’s time for him to throw the team on his back and make the money for next year

FML!
I know John Lannan didn’t do it, but I’m going to blame him anyway.

Actually, this is easy to blame on him— if he had not hit Ryan on the elbow, he may not have been on base to wreck his ankle!

Good enough reason for me. I hate that guy now more than Cody Ross. Die, Lannan, die.

Yes, while Cody Ross is just a complete douchebag, Lannan has actually drawn blood not once, but twice.

He seemingly hits one of our players every time we face him, too.
Lex clavatoris designati rescindenda est.
Indeed. And ah yes, here’s confirmation about the Mets fan thing. But it’s even worse – he grew up rooting for both the Mets and the Yankees. The only redeeming quality of Mets fans is that they hate the Yankees and vice versa, yet Lannan doesn’t even have that.
So he was a sports bisexual? That is just wrong.

Well, I think we have adequately proven that Lannan is the worst human being on the face of the earth. FM, if you’re here, you have authorization to hate him.
Sorry, grew up in a circle where everyone was Catholic and rooted for Notre Dame. Never understood it at all, so no one I knew actually went to Notre Dame nor had family members that did.

I meant Lannan is Brett Myers’ evil triplet along with Bert.

No
Brett Myers looks like Bert. Look at a picture of him next to Myers. You’ll never look at Bert the same way. I wonder if he used to beat up Ernie when the cameras weren’t rolling.

But...
When he gets here, he’ll be the answer at first base:
Amaro said Mayberry took grounders at first today in Lehigh. Could be an option there.

Yes, I caught that tweet just a minute ago.

That’s poor logistical planning there. They should have at least had him wait at an airport somewhere while they decided.
Pigs are in Buffalo tonight, so he’s already in a major (-ish) city with a major (-ish) airport. It’s not like he’s in Altoona.
Well, let’s see… there’s a 7:15 flight to Fort Lauderdale, but I guess that wouldn’t get him to the ballpark until after the game was over. But they still could have had Mayberry fly out in the morning, and then if they decided not to DL Howard, they could have just sent him back.
Phillies category of course, I have to think that dude who hurt himself for the season celebrating at home plate (kendrick?) wins the award for the whole league

I meant, it’s not unheard that people injure themselves when sneezing. I don’t know how often it happens to MLB players.
it’s happened more than once. Seem to recall it a few years back. It’s one of those things that just exacerbates a lingering injury.
ha. Moyer sneezes faster than he throws.

Adam Eaton stabbed himself whilst opening a DVD (or CD, I can’t remember which) with a knife.

I still can’t believe that dude once won 10 games for us—if that isn’t proof that the win/loss record is a flawed stat, I don’t know what is. The offense carried that mofo.
Lex clavatoris designati rescindenda est.
I suppose it’s OK, but it doesn’t strike me as being all that important. It would only be to open up a spot in the OF for Gload or Mayberry, but Gload is a 1B too and apparently Mayberry can play 1B as well.
And so continues
the Phillies’ transformation into the IronPigs.
