Roy Oswalt (3-1, 3.33) makes his first start since Apr. 26 when the Phillies conclude their short set with St. Louis tonight at 8:10 p.m. Unbeaten left-hander Jaime Garcia (5-0, 1.89) goes for the Cards.
Preview: So here's tonight's lineup; St. Louis trembles: Rollins SS. Martinez CF. Polanco 3B. Howard 1B, Mayberry LF, Francisco RF, Valdez 2B, Sardinha C. It’s actually a considerably worse lineup than last night’s horror show. As you can see, the Phils are still badly understaffed, with Shane Victorino and Carlos Ruiz still on the mend. Meanwhile, whether Oswalt is up for this remains to be seen. His fastball was routinely hitting 89 on the gun in Clearwater last Thursday. … Garcia presents a challenge, but the Phils have performed surprisingly well against southpaw starters this season, running up a 9-1 record against them. … The Phils are also looking to break out of their funk with runners in scoring position. They have just seven hits in their last 37 at bats.
Word of advice: Do something else tonight.

LOL! I just spat out my soda laughing at that advice!
I remember a few weeks ago some were pondering the '05 line up and while doing some Spring cleaning, I stumbled upon the yearbook. I'd take them over this one, Bell and Liebey included, any day of the week. Just as long as we're not trotting out Wolf-Lieber-Padilla-Lidle. Well too late for the last guy, may he rest in peace.

Seriously guys, McFadden's this Friday for the first game against the Rangers. $3 drinks from 7-9 at the Ballpark. Remember, Steve at the door. SEE YOU THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why wouldn't you go with Oswalt in LF so you could put Mayberry in CF?
Posted by: cjp | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 05:43 PM
2005 lineup would be a murderer's row
C Mike Lieberthal
1B Ryan Howard

3B David Bell
SS Jimmy Rollins
LF Pat Burrell
CF Kenny Lofton
RF Bobby Abreu

Doug Glanville is probably still in pretty good shape too.

15 runs on 7 hits would be much stranger.

The sad thing is, the 2011 versions of Bobby Abreu and Pat Burrell are still better than what we're trotting out in LF and RF.

Well at least the Cards have to look deep in their charts to scout our lineup.

Posted by: Bubba | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 05:55 PM
Has any team ever just forfeit a game before it started to save time? I mean, if the Phils win tonight, I would put this on the same platform as US hockey winning the 1980 gold medal.
Posted by: SLO Phan | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 05:56 PM
The Phillies are actually going to score 8 runs tonight, but Oswalt and the bullpen will give up 9.
Posted by: BobbyD | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 05:57 PM
"What gives with putting the other team on the thread picture?"
I think it's brilliant. With this lineup & the Cardinals starter, we have no chance to win this game. With an opposing player on the thread picture, we have no chance to win this game. When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number, right?

0.38 ERA AT HOME-NUFF SAID...
Posted by: Jay | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:00 PM
I think you actually CAN'T forfeit a game. I remember reading that in the 1910s sometime, Ty Cobb was indefinitely suspended for some infraction and the rest of the Tigers refused to play out of solidarity. I believe the game was in Philadelphia against the Philadelphia A's, and the Tigers fielded a replacement team made up of people from the Philadelphia area. The Philadelphia A's absolutely shellacked the replacements for the Tigers.
But yeah, long story short, MLB doesn't allow you to forfeit (less money for the owners.)
Posted by: Heather | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:00 PM
Matt Gelb (via Twitter): "Victorino is out for at least the next few days. Some progression but Amaro says he'll go for more tests when the team gets home."
Gotta keep him on the active roster, though. There is absolutely no effin' way Vance would EVER be able to stretch properly in the bigs, distinct potential for almost immediate usefulness be damned!

Posted by: Scotch Man | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:02 PM
I also remember reading about that fateful Tigers/A's game that a Philadelphia tradesman got into some hot water with his wife as a result of that game. When the husband got home that night after being out all day, his wife asked him where he had been and the man responded, "Playing for the Tigers."
The story was so unbelievable, she assumed he was out drinking and carousing and threw him out of the house.
Probably apocryphal, but nice story.

Oswalt is +142. Biggest underdog of the year in an Oswalt start.

God forbid we actually DL someone. Did Rube have a stroke this off-season and forget all of the basic "roster management" moves he's allowed to make?

I remember reading about that game. The pitcher threw a complete game loss and coughed up like 24 runs!

Posted by: GTown_Dave | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:15 PM
Phils win a squeaker tonight only if they get an effective Oswalt for 6 IP (1-2 runs). I say 3-2 Phils.
Posted by: MG | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:16 PM
Yeah, no downside for JW throwing caution to the wind with the Garcia pic.
If the Phils lose, the streak runs to 0-6 with opposing teams pic in Game Thread header.
If the Phils win, not only does it break the streak, but it's the most improbably win of the season, lineup considered.
It's actually a smart move on JW's side.
Plus, if Cholly is already willing to concede defeat, why not JW? Save the Mini-Mart throwback baseball card pic for another game.
Posted by: Willard Preacher | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:17 PM
MG, think Roy can keep it just just 12 pitches/inning with his 75 pitch count? I'll be impressed if he does.
I suspect that KK will be warming up by the 3rd inning.
Posted by: Willard Preacher | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:19 PM
The WhiteSox actually tried to forfeit a game back in 2005 (the year they won it all, I believe). It was a rained out game with Boston & the league was threatening to schedule the makeup at an inconvenient time. The WhiteSox asked the league if it could wait until the season was over because, if they had clinched the division, they preferred to just forfeit the game. The RedSox and Yankees were involved in a tight divisional race that year too so, naturally, Yankees fans went nuts. Needless to say, the league did not accept the forfeit offer.
Posted by: bay_area_phan | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:19 PM
If I was the home team and my revenues would be impacted, I'd refuse to accept a forfeit by the other team, too.
Posted by: Willard Preacher | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:20 PM
Royals just called up LHP Danny Duffy...another great prospect in their ridiculously deep minor league system. He's got really good stuff.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:22 PM
What's the over/under on the number of pitches that Garcia throws in the first inning? I'm guessing the Phils will be out in 9 pitches.
Posted by: SLO Phan | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:23 PM
9 pitches? More like 5.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:24 PM
Like the alcoholic with the mouthwash, I'll still take in tonight's game, however I'll be following MG's lead and listening to the radio broadcast.
Coupling the "poo-poo platter" lineup with TBag and Wheels, will pretty much assuredly have me looking at the g/f's DVR'd "Desperate Housewives" and thinking it's a viable alternative.
Posted by: Willard Preacher | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:24 PM

GTown, you may be shocked to hear this, but in my research yesterday (to uncover the 0-4 stat of opposing team's player's pics, before the game), I actually found that Mini-Mart's pic has already been used in a Game Thread header this season!!! Though, I like your pic much better.
Posted by: Willard Preacher | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:26 PM
It was the WSJ-esque pic (JW should be commended for these, BTW), and was the Game Chat on Sunday April 10 (Mini-Mart's first start at 2B).

MaDubbs, not sure how Oswalt is getting 4AB's unless double switched into LF. He's on a short pitch count tonight.
Now, if you're aggregating the 0-fer put up in pinch hit AB's by Ibanez and Orr, then sure, 0-4 sounds right.
Posted by: Willard Preacher | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:45 PM
This is a contrarian's delight.
Weak lineup. Check
Weitzel photo jinx. Check
Beerleaguer posters almost unanimous in their doom and gloom. Check
Other team throwing excellent pitcher. Check
Oswalt throwing 89 mph. Check
There's only one possible outcome: Phillies win.

Phils ever going to learn about these rule 5 pick ups??? They got lucky with Vic but Herndon and now Martinez?? Really, why not call up Ronnie Belliard, or Delwyn Young, wow did I really just say that, times are rough right now!

They can't. Too many "uninjured" but unable to play guys already clogging up the roster. There's simply no room for anyone physically capable of taking the field. Especially not Vance Worley. He needs to stretch. In the Minors.
Posted by: GTown_Dave | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:53 PM
Right, we need that roster spot for guys "recovering while playing" at the MLB level (see Oswalt, Polanco, Blanton, Vic and probably still Ruiz).
Posted by: Willard Preacher | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 06:55 PM
I'm taking the Phils in a 4-3 squeaker. Oswalt clears the bases on a four base error on a squeeze play.
Amato's at Muhlenberg and Wunder in Reading had the best cheesesteaks West of Philadelphia. I think you can get crack and heroin there, now. If you want a good cheesesteak in Pittsburgh, I suggest you drive east and don't stop until you get to Harrisburg, at least. That is, unless you like your cheesesteak bland with lettuce, tomato, onion and mayonnaise.
Posted by: Joe Blanton | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 07:00 PM
Scotch Man mentioned the 2005 line-up. I'll take ANY Phillies line-up (starting 8 only) from the dark ages (1985-2000) over this dreck. The current line-up does not inspire me at all. Chalk it up as a loss and let's regroup at home.

Gotta be pissed off if you're Vance Worley right now. There are easily 3 guys that deserved to be sent down before him but he still got clipped instead.
Call Brown and Utley up, send Mini-Mart back to DC and send Orr or Baez down.

I wouldn't watch Worley too closely tonight. More than likely, he's trying to get the Phils to release him so some team will let him keep getting major league hitters out. I wouldn't be surprised if he throws a knockdown pitch at Sandberg.
Posted by: aksmith | Tuesday, May 17, 2011 at 07:34 PM

Crack in Reading? Probably. Heroin? Definitely. Probably not even more than 4-5 blocks up Centre Ave from the R-Phils Stadium.
Really depressing how Reading has become including the area around the R-Phils Stadium which used to be a solid working class neighborhood with people working at the Glidden Paint factory, Dana Light Truck Frame/Axle factory, and a few other plants located right around the stadium. Those days are long gone though with each of the factories I mentioned having been closed at least 10 years.
Only CarTech (specialty steel manufacturer) remains.

I live about one minute from the nearest In N Out in Las Vegas. It is good. But I have never understood the rapturous verbiage whenever the name is brought up. I have relatives who visit Vegas and the first thing they do after saying "hi" is sprint to In N Out.

But there's also something to be said for quick & cheap and, when it comes to quick & cheap, you can't beat El Pollo or In-N-Out Burger (which are literally the only 2 fast food places I will even set foot in). Obviously, I'm being facetious when I say they're the finest dining establishments ever. But they're damn good.
