- Talk about insult to injury? Next thing they will be blaming their flop on her leadership skills. Sorry Joe and Frank, it was not her fault that you guys got beat. The Phillies were a better team this year especially after that key pitching acquisition (Lee) you should have grabbed. There is always next year, 3rd time is a charm. You had a great year, a little nerve wracking but well done. You guys have the nucleus of a great team for years to come. Go Angels. (P.S. Who gets custody of the kids?)
