Offense came to life today, but then again it is only day 1.

does it really matter?

Ryne Sandberg and Jimmy Rollins already taking passive aggressive shots at each other through the media.

When asked about Jimmy's grandslam, Ryne said "glad he got that out of the way" and can't wait for Jimmy to get back to stealing bases and hitting line drives.

Jimmy's response when told this by a reporter: "it was a line drive"

This shit is not going to end well.

His claim to fame is a Phils prospect who got traded and became star. Elsewhere.

He comes off as the stereotypical meathead "old-school" ballplayer. Got quotables about today's players don't respect the game. He's probably an insufferable douche to play for. The shit he pulled with Rollins is dumb. Maybe you get away with that with a 21 year old middling prospect, not a World Series champion, former MVP.

last year, i thought there was still some hope. i have low expectations, so if they are good i will be excited but if they stink i will be okay.

Wild Card contending into the last week of the season!

----

I'm not scurred of any other NL East team

no reason this team can't be in contention

not sure what to say about the Muts

Nats were the favorites last year, how'd that turn out

based on recent history, the Braves will have first place lead and find a way to FOK it up in September

3B and the bullpen are the glaring holes

but shit could come together for this roster

You can throw in the towel on opening day

I'll be patiently waiting for Hollywood and Babe Ruf to come back before I completely check out

GO PHILS!

*but Fire Amaro, SERIOUSLY!

Burnett pitching a gem so far. Will be interesting to see how Burnett and the bullpen finish this one out.

Oh shit, looks like the Rangers are about to successfully challenge a play against us. This is so weird to see.

But you couldnt tell that by the buzz throughout the game.

Jimmy needed to redeem himself (even though the error was given to Ryan Howard) with that walkoff.

Getting Cole and Adams back should be a nice boost.

“So back we go to these questions — friendship, character… ethics.”

the road back to .500 didn't take until July/August like last season. Perhaps this recent run can be the spark to ignite this team's success this year. I'm not counting on it, but it sure would be nice.

Nice to see Rollins and Utley with back-to-back game winning home runs. Utley is a machine right now.

hope the bullpen can hang on to this lead. Heck of swing/HR by Domonic Brown. 5 runs with 2 outs. Fun game to watch.

and told myself I was going one more inning at the top of it and that shit would not end but by the end I was laughing in between heavy breathing.

why we have $50 million invested in Papelbomb??!

On my count that's at least 3 games blown bu our charming ass bullpen.

or, you know, we could try drafting and developing high-quality pitchers, but http://phuturephillies.com/2014/04/14/where-have-all-the-pitchers-gone/

Our 102-game-winning year I wanna say our bullpen was pretty solid but our rotation was so good it helped mask it probably.

2008 might be the last truly upper-echelon bullpen we had.

It's crazy that Ryan Madson hasn't throw a pitch in the majors since that season ended.

Our manager pinch hit Ryan Howard against a lefty because he's our best RBI man.

Our best RBI man,

In 2014

What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?
