The Phillies have not been doing much to make us happy so far. But at least J-Roll is doing okay. He's got 3 homers, 7 runs, 6 RBIs and a big mouth. That mouth haunted him today in New York when he made a key error in the 8th. The Mets fans let him have it.. Rollins' miscue led to a 7 run 8th inning by the Mets allowing them to cruise to an 11-5 victory.
Some reasons the Phillies are 1-6;
As a team, the Phillies are hitting .188 (13-for-69) with runners in scoring position.
And today was the first day where both Utley and Howard had an extra base hit in the same game. We can't afford to have that happen once every 7 games.
For now, let's enjoy Jimmy's inside the parker. Notice how he's sprinting out of the box, he doesn't score otherwise.

Right now J Roll seems to be the only player who gives a shit about the season. This team is killing me!
I love Rollins. He has a big mouth but he never says anything outrageous or embarrassing. We've had someone like T.O. in this town, so Rollins is nothing but great for this team. Him and Burrell are the only things to look forward to each day.
....and Hamels every fifth day
Skeeter, I agree... i like the fact that Rollins had the balls to say something and pump this team up... and i love that he doesn't regret saying it... he seems like the type to relish in the attention, even if it is negative.
Run Jimmmy Run...
