The Phillies start their final regular season homestand of the 2009 season against the Astros, who made such quick work of the Phillies earlier this month during that rotten series in Houston.

The bad news, if you're a Phillies fan... the Phillies always seem (anecdotally) to struggle against unproven rookie types. Let's flip the trend.
