Ryne Sandberg Resigns as Phillies Manager

Hi everybody,

Ryne Sandberg resigned yesterday afternoon as Phillies manager.  He has been replaced on an interim basis by 3rd base coach Pete Mackanin.  Sandberg had a won/loss record of 119-159 since becoming the Phils manager in August 2013.  I wish Ryno the best of luck in his future endeavors.

Chase Utley Placed on the DL

Hi everybody,

My hero Chase Utley was placed on the 15-day DL (Disabled List) last night with inflammation in his right ankle.  This is the same ankle that Chase injured during the offseason and forced him to miss the beginning of Spring Training.  Hopefully the injury isn't too severe and Chase will be back before too long.

Phillies outfielder Jeff Francoeur pitched the last two innings (7th & 8th).  He was more effective than any other pitcher that threw.  Sadly...this team (losers of eight straight) is horrible.  I never thought they would be this bad. Sigh....

Hi everybody,

This week's photo is a picture of Chase and Phils 3rd Baseman Maikel Franco.  Franco has had a pretty good week at the plate so I figured that a pic with him and Chase together would be cool.  Franco is getting ready to bat while Chase is looking at his jersey.  I wonder if Chase found anything interesting during his jersey inspection.
