Ryan Howard Signs With The Colorado Rockies

Hi everybody,

Former Phillies first baseman Ryan Howard signed a minor league contract with the Colorado Rockies on Saturday (August 12th).  Howard has been looking to sign with a team ever since he was released by the Atlanta Braves back in May (Ryan Howard Released By The Atlanta Braves).  Congrats and good luck Big Piece!

Vincent Velasquez Placed on the DL

Hi everybody,

Phillies starting pitcher Vincent Velasquez was placed on the DL (Disabled List) with a finger injury to his right middle finger before Friday night's (August 11th) game against the New York Mets.  Velasquez was taken out of the game on Thursday (August 10th) after pitching just one inning.  It is not known if Velasquez will return this season although Velasquez believes that he will.  It is not yet known for certain who will replace Velasquez in the starting rotation but it is believed that it will be Mark Leiter, Jr.

Alumni Weekend

Hi everybody,

It was Alumni Weekend at the ballpark this past weekend and it was a somber affair as the Phils honored three Wall of Famers (Dallas Green , Jim Bunning and Darren Daulton) who passed away this year.  The Phils honored Dallas Green, Jim Bunning and Darren Daulton with a tribute video and a speech by Mike Schmidt as other Phillies Wall of Famers looked on.

Watching the tribute video...

National Anthem

I want to repeat what I wrote on Twitter on Saturday night as my tribute to the Phillies legends that we lost:

I raise my glass to the 3 @Phillies icons that have left us. Cheers to Jim Bunning, Dallas Green & Darren "Dutch" Daulton! #LegendsReturn
