    That's awesome! Hope he's all healed up and ready to lead the team out of the basement.

    Dear Chase,

    I feel like I can call you Chase because you and me are so much alike. I would love to meet you someday. It would be great to have a catch. I know I can’t throw as fast as you, but I think you would be impressed by my speed. I love you hair. You run fast. Did you have a good relationship with your father? Me neither. These are all things we can talk about. And more. I know you have not been getting my letters because I know you would write back if you did. And I hope you write back this time and we get to be good friends. I’m sure our relationship would be a real home run.

    Halladay should be back in a few weeks as well. If we can keep within 7 games of first place by the end of July I think a playoff run is going to happen! Kind of excited to see if this team has it in them!

    I think we will know following the 9 game stretch against NL East teams we have starting next week! If they pick up ground I think they stand pat or pick up bull pen help. If they find themselves 10-12 games out I think we can kiss Pence, Victorino and others goodbye! I would love to kiss Victorino (can't stand him) goodbye anyway, but that is another subject!

    Hopefully he can stay healthy. There is a lot of baseball left yet this season - let's hope they finish strong!

    That makes my husband and I very happy~It's been a tough start to the year, here's hoping the bats get hot and the pitching can return to the stellar quality it has been in years past.

    Go Fightin' Phils!!!

    I'm over Victorino, too. He has disappointed me over the last few years, both on the field and off.

    And, admittedly, I was all over the Freddy bandwagon...such a dummy.

    Chooch for Presidente! :drinker:

    Yeah, I have a few personal experiences and stories about Victorino that make me dislike him on and off the field. I want him gone! Been saying it for 3 years. Anyway I like having Utley in the 3 hole followed by Chooooooch, Pence!

    Im guessing the lineup should look like this most days:

    Rollins ss
    Pierre lf
    Utley 2b
    Ruiz c
    Pence rf
    Victorino cf
    Mayberry Wigginton 1b
    Polanco 3b

    Nooooo! Please no! LOL....That would be like finding out the Easter Bunny isn't real. :bigsmile:

    I'm looking forward to the second half, I still have plenty of Phaith! It's nice having the Pirates in town, they're GREAT for building a team's confidence. :laugh:

    Go Phils!
