Delectable Phillies
Delectable Phillies
pabaseball.blogspot.com — I enjoy doing Google image searches for various things Phillies related. You'd be surprised with some of the interesting pictures that I find, which are perfect for use on the blog during the typically slow offseason.

Barack & Chuck
pabaseball.blogspot.com — At WSBGMs headquarters, somewhere in a dank basement in our mother's house according to Buzz Bissinger , we've been following the 44th President of the United States of America's ties with the Philadelphia Phillies quite closely.

Vizquel & Park
Vizquel & Park
pabaseball.blogspot.com — Omar Vizquel's name is being floated around as a possible replacement for the newly departed Eric Bruntlett. Vizquel, who is 42, still manages to be in excellent shape and play outstanding defense at multiple positions (SS, 2nd, and 3rd), but his bat is weak. Of course, a crusty piece of pooh ...

Brad Lidge Needs Your Horse's Placenta
pabaseball.blogspot.com — Yeah, you read that correctly. All year long while Lidge was blowing saves many fans of the Fightins were convinced that Lidge was hurt. It was repeatedly denied but as soon as the season finished, a season that saw Lidge give up three runs in a tie Game 4 of the World Series, he was on the ...

Name That Player #2

A petition was put into action by the fine readership of WSBGMs. Today our wish was granted, as Bruntlett was removed from the 40-man roster, thus becoming a free agent.

From Paris To Philly
From Paris To Philly
pabaseball.blogspot.com — For some odd reason, WSBGMs has an obsession with Steve Jeltz. The hair, the classic array of baseball cards, the switch hitting prowess, the Frenchyness...the man had it all. The Jeltz Chronicles: * Jheri Curls & Mullets * Where have you gone Steve Jeltz?

Phillies Phlashback Phriday: Greg Gross
Phillies Phlashback Phriday: Greg Gross
pabaseball.blogspot.com — Greg Gross is the case of local boy done good (pardon the grammar). He was born in York, Pennsylvania and was drafted in the 4th round of the 1970 amateur draft by the Houston Astros. He made his MLB debut with Houston 3 years later in 1973, and played for them until 1976. The following 2 ... (more) Phillies Phlashback Phriday: Greg Gross
My Ultimate Lineup
My Ultimate Lineup
pabaseball.blogspot.com — The offseason can be very boring for a baseball fan. There is only so much "Hot Stove" talk to fill the 3 1/2 months until Spring Training, especially for a team like the Phils who have 90% of their roster set for next year. So we have to come up with stuff to fill the time and the blog space. ... (more) My Ultimate Lineup

No More Bruntlett
No More Bruntlett
pabaseball.blogspot.com — The Phillies management has plenty to do this offseason and they've already made a few decision. Brett Myers won't be back next season. Pedro Feliz could be back but not with his current contract. The Phils didn't pick up the option so he is now a free agent. I'm okay with both of these moves. ... (more) No More Bruntlett
