Season Previews: Philadelphia Phillies


With Spring Training well underway, it's time for one of our favorite things in all the world: Season Previews. Five years ago, they began as a semi-serious analysis and ended up as half-assed haiku. We're just gonna go with what we know. Continuing our preview of the National League East, here's a look at the 2012 Philadelphia Phillies.

Halladay and Lee
Hamels, Blanton and Kendrick
It's ridiculous

Papelboner is
Philadelphia's closer
/awkward Irish jig

Shane Victorino
Hunter Pence and Laynce Nix make
Quite the outfield wall

Ruiz at the dish
Polanco's misshapen head
At the hot corner

A fun name to say:
Antonio Bastardo...
Chutley at second

Speaking of old folks
Will Thome mash taters and
Bring us more Dugouts?

Welcome Wigginton!
J-Roll got an extension
Belongs in Philly

One hundred and two
Regular season wins and
One giant failure

There's always next year
Is what they always say but
Can they beat the Fish?

It's going to be
An exciting NL East
Battle of dollars
