I could just as well re-post the preceding entry with a today's date. Little has changed except a few inescapable facts, not the least of which is the Phils have dropped two of three thus far to the lowly Astros. What is more galling is that a bunch of nobodies including several AAA or lower pitchers and a guy from the Mexican League shut out the Phils Saturday night, 5-0.
I've watched portions of two of the three games against the Astros and STILL cannot name more than one player on the team. I don't know the manager's name. I don't know the coaches' name. I have no idea who owns the team. I saw the empty stands and wondered who draws fewer fans, the Astros or Marlins.
Re: the Astros move to the AL next year (paraphrasing Oscar Levant's legendary line when Milton Berle converted from Judaism to Christian Science), "our loss is their loss".
