A few links to peruse between innings but before MLB.com's enhanced gameday locks up your computer...
...Jason Weitzel is bringing sexy blogging back.
...The 700 Level evaluates the broadcast crews of the Phillies. I agree that the radio crew is very good to listen to and while I really want to like him, I think we have to change Gary "Sarge" Matthews' nickname to "Captain Obvious".
...If you watch LOST, then you absolutely have to read Begging to Differ on Thursdays.
...Pretty much all of us saw this coming, and all the beat writers hinted about it on their blogs: Matt Smith was demoted to AAA Ottawa and Fabio Castro was brought up to the big club. [Incidentally, if you've ever seen an episode of "Hogan's Heroes", the Germans are always threatening to send someone to the Russian front as a means of punishment or motivation... I can't help but think the word "Ottawa" carries similar weight in the Phils' clubhouse.]
...I had lunch with Tom Durso of Shallow Center and we both agreed that since he has not written anything about the Phillies since their win streak began, he will not do so until the streak snaps.
