The Phillies ****ing own us, and there is no way we will ever beat them in a playoff series.

It is a little amusing how much trouble soft tossing leftys can give this team and this trend seems to have lasted through many roster overhauls and changes of hitting coaches.

welll we did own the Dodgers in the regular season and then got swept in the playoffs. If it happened to us, why can't we make it happen to them? October is a long way off.

Youare correct but it's only possible if they can get Holliday to pull his head out. I swear that ****in guy will hit .300 but he'll hit.078 with RISP. He'll end the season with 30 HR's and 28 of them will be solo shots.

Sure, we can't win a WS without Holliday hitting, not just because of his bat but teams just won't throw to Pujols either. You take Pujols and Holliday out we are done but so is every other team if you take out their #3 and #4 hitters. Holliday has a long history of hitting a baseball, he will come around. I don't think he has gotten fat and lazy with the contract. Everything I've read is that he is a hard worker in practice, takes extra practice alongside Pujols etc.

And we didn't historically own the Dodgers save for the playoffs. That's a little different than our record against Philly the last 3+ years, where they consistently piss pound us every time we meet.

Like I said, I still hold a grudge from the playoffs. But, for better or worse he's wearing the birds on bat until he breaks down from age. We just have to hope he comes around. If nothing else, if his signing helps keep Pujols in a Cardinals uniform its money well spent, IMHO.
