Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Jimmy Rollins left Thursday's game with the Cincinnati Reds for unknown reasons. Rollins was lifted from the game before the fifth inning, and Eric Bruntlett took his place at shortstop and atop the Philadelphia lineup. The reigning National League Most Valuable Player was 0-for-2 and reached on an error before departing. 06/05 14:12:09 ET

Meanwhile at Yankee Stadium, Matt Stairs is destroying the esrstwhile Yankee ace Wang. 2 run HR and 2 run double. Win-Loss record is one of the poorest metrics to determine the effectiveness of a pitcher. Mussina's 4.01 ERA isn't even in the top 20 in the AL. Sorry.

The reigning National League Most Valuable Player was 0-for-2 and reached on an error before departing. 06/05 14:12:09 ET According to Scott Lauber from the News Journal, Phillies SS Jimmy Rollins was pulled after the fourth inning after not running hard on a pop fly to shallow left field in the third. Lauber writes, "It seems highly unlikely that Charlie Manuel would pull the reigning NL MVP for lack of hustle, but thus far, we've received no status report on any possible injuries. Typically, when a player is injured, we receive an update a few innings later." Well, guess it's time to wade into Sillies blogs to read the hysteria. If Manuel yanked him for lack of hustle, good for Uncle Cholly. If only Willie R. did the same with Jose Jose last season.

Plus they still have first rounder Denard Span in the organization and looked decent when he was called up

If you WERE extolling the virtues of Mike Mussina and his 9 wins, my point stands. It means nothing and it's a weak statement to relate wins to the skill of a pitcher and his relative success over a period of time. If I completely misread your post and you WEREN'T extolling the virtues of Mike Mussina and his 9 wins, I suppose "what's your point?" would have been a more succinct response to your post. I would recommend that next time you back up your statement with some contrary info to drive your point home like his high ERA, WHIP or run support. You're welcome (and thanks for the assist, Razor).

You've got to be kidding me. B DeBrun wrote: Well, guess it's time to wade into Sillies blogs to read the hysteria. If Manuel yanked him for lack of hustle, good for Uncle Cholly. If only Willie R. did the same with Jose Jose last season. If only Willie did that with Delgado and Beltran as well. Next stop- San Diego. Padres lineup is a joke so Pelfrey better give the Mets a quality outing tonight. Otherwise, remove him from the rotation in favor of Vargas.

WFAN interrupted their own 5:00 update to announce this. I though it was pretty odd they would do that. It's true, Manuel benched Rollins for lack of hustle today. On to Atlanta! They call him Chipper....

What was the last time both Chi teams were in 1st place this deep in the season? It doesn't matter. There's no fucking way the ChiSox make the World Series, even if they're fortunate enough to make the playoffs. Cubs should make the W.S. though. DeBrun - 1977 Razzorz - Oooooh...tempting the Baseball Gods now, are we? I love it when you make predictions about the White Sox. See the 2005 Baseball Season Thread. lol.

Apparently, Willie was watching the end of the Yankee game. Umm, shouldn't he be worried about his own team? Of course, the two idiots didn't ask him why he pitched his worst reliever in a one run game against the Dodgers last week (Heilman allowed 4 runs and murdered the team. Again.) Francesa is giddy like a schoolgirl. "This dramatic victory should jumpstart the Yanks". Yeah, now watch them lose 3/4 to the Royals.
