They won't be the worst team in the league at home all year, just as they probably won't be the best away. The Jay's series was just so damn frustrating because they should have benn putting up double digits against those guys. If Halliday shut them down, fine, but not Richmond and whoever threw yesterday. I fully expect to get the same help from our friends in Flushing again this year - but just probably a little sooner. The Phils are wasting a golden opportunity to bury them right now though. They need to get innings from the rotation. Hamels throw a Maddux-esqe game against L.A. and then can't get through 5 or 6 the next couple of times out. It’s going to even out.
