I think it's the longest of long shots in terms of him ever helping the Phillies, but here's rooting for a good outing for Mark Appel tonight. Have a little fun out there tonight, Mark.

I think Jersey Shore is the team most interesting to follow.

[zambonir]

Truly. Though if we're lucky that will become true of Reading come July.

[bkeich]

Sadly true. If you have a good or average minor league, you have players in AA and AAA that are on the verge of contributing. Sadly we have guys who just haven’t proven whether they are prospects or not. Hopefully in a couple years we can be excited by guys that have actually shown something in the minor leagues

[allentown]

True, but that is far from a strong lineup of legit prospects. It's really sad how little we have in the minors after so many consecutive years of losing.

CLW rallies for 4 runs in the bottom of the ninth to win 4-3 on a walk-off double by Hunter Marquard. Casey Martin in the middle of the rally with his own double.
