Is Ricky Jordan starting at first tonight, too? Maybe Gregg Jefferies as well?

Who's this Mike Stanton for Miami? He's now "Giancarlo Stanton"...very odd.

I'm glad to see Charlie keeping Mayberry in there every day.

Actually, Howard is a pretty good first baseman, haters. Definitely more than adequate.

Hunter Pence 1B - Didn't know Hunter could play 1st Base and RF according to the Line-up graph. But, we understand that's not your fault.

Well,Kyle will be in by the 5-6th. If Joe can give up only his usual 2 runs, the Phils have a chance to win tonight. If not, and he goes to 3 runs, the game will be lost. Expect a PH for Joe and hopefully it will be Thome so that the lefty is already gone.
