If you didn't already know today was opening day for the Phillies, all you would have to do is count the number of Phillies-centric headlines in the area newspapers. Here are some of the best and worst:
- Chris Coste took the news pretty hard that he was being sent down to AAA. But hey, it could be worse, he could have been released like Tomas Perez. [DelcoTimes.com]
- Q&A with the player nearly every young boy is going to emulate this summer at one point or another on a ball field. [DelcoTimes.com]
- Q&A with the player nearly every young boy used to emulate in the summer at one point or another on a ball field. [Courier-Post]
- Spot on column by Kevin Roberts. It's hard to argue with anything he writes in this column. [Courier-Post]
- David Bell claims his health is not an issue. Right. And Hillary Clinton doesn't have a box in her attic that says "White House swatches, do not throw out". [Philly.com]
- Uh, Marcus...Who is Chris Conte? [Philly.com]
- Let's see...it's opening day...write about the improved pitching staff? No. How about something poetic about how the start of a new season represents hope? No. How about something about how most Rookies of the Year flop and compare them to Ryan Howard? Brilliant! [Philly.com]
- Finally, the whole country has Jimmy Rollins Fever. [Google News]
