How bad was the Phillies first half?
Hey, how 'bout that Union!
Uh, they lost last night in the U.S. Open Cup, 2-0 to Sporting Kansas City at PPL Park.
Back to the Phils. Can they right their sinking ship. Will the return of Chase Utley and Ryan Howard solidify their lineup? Can Roy Halladay, who will be making a rehab start today in Clearwater and is expected to rejoin the team on the West Coast next week, ease their pitching woes?
Last time I looked, Utley and Howard were not exactly setting the world on fire. And Halladay does not come out of the bullpen.
The guess here is that this troika will not be enough to salvage this sorry season. The team has some big issues.
Yes, even bigger than the big three of Utley, Howard and Halladay.
