Completely worthless to interpret anything from.  But the Phils are #2, behind the Cubs.  The Marlins are 7, the Braves 10, the Mets18 and the Nats 26.

Kotsay to DL

May 30, 2008 · No Comments

The Braves today placed CF Mark Kotsay on the disabled list. Kotsay has long suffered from back problems, and, according to MLB.com’s Mark Bowman, the Braves felt it would be best to let Kotsay rest (his back has been sore for several days now). Called up in his place is Josh Anderson, who is hitting .282 for Triple-A Richmond.

Phils go phishing at cbp

May 30, 2008 · 1 Comment

The Phillies want first place.  They’re going to have to get it tonight against the Marlins.  Jamie Moyer tries to win the fifth straight for the Phils and continue his strong 45 year old season.  Mark Hendrickson tries to take his surprising season one more game against a blazing Phillies lineup.

It’s the bottom of the lineup truly carrying the Phils though.  Pedro Feliz, Geoff Jenkins, and even Carlos Ruiz (and of course Chris Coste) are contributing.  Time to take it into June.
