The Phillies are Getting Jerzified!

That Jersey Shore program sure was a big hit for MTV this winter. There was no avoiding this show. It was cheesy television at its finest. Even folks who managed to dodge what seemed to be 24/7 repeats of Jersey Shore for 8 or 9 weeks, were subjected to astounding references to the show via other media outlets. Everything from sports talk radio to your friends' social networking site updates were sure to contain blurbs, debates or content about the show.

With that saturation in mind, this week, I was wondering what some Phillies might look like, if they got Jersey-fied. I did some calculations...have a look-

Here is an image of how Carlos Ruiz would appear if he got a blow out and a sweet orange tan. Seems like he'd fit right in with the cast of the show. How do you say, "The Situation" en Espanol?


Oh, and next we have Ruiz's battery mate, Roy Halladay. Here's Roy with a spray tan, tats and his own blow out hair-do. Would night clubs allow a guy carrying a Cy Young Award in?


And here's a bonus one. Phils manager Charlie Manuel is seen here rockin' a faux hawk, an orange glow and a whole lot of muscles on the beach. The tan and the hair are worked up...but the physique is all real. Charlie dropped a bunch of weight this offseason, you know?

Sunday School: Phillies History Lesson 73

Danny Ozark was the Phillies' manager from 1973-1979. During his tenure as the team's general, Ozark led Philadelphia to three straight division titles. In his playing days, Ozark was a first baseman, who was a career minor leaguer in the Dodgers system. When Ozark took over the team in 1973, the Phillies were fresh off 5 consecutive losing seasons and 3 straight last place finishes. During his first season in charge, the Phillies would again finish in last place, 20 games under .500, but as his core of young talent, like Mike Schmidt and Larry Bowa, developed, the Phillies' win totals rose. Within 2 years, the Phillies were above .500 and in the playoff hunt until late in the season and the most successful era of Phillies history was about to begin. By 1976, the Phillies were headed to the post-season for the first time since 1950. The Phils would enjoy a 10-game lead over their nearest division rival at the midway point of the season. Despite a lul, which saw their lead d...

PhoulBallz Interview: First round pick Bryson Stott

Bryson Stott, image- Jay Floyd Shortstop Bryson Stott , the Phillies' first round draft selection this year, has enjoyed a successful initial pro campaign.  En route to being recognized as an All-Star for the Class A short-season Williamsport Crosscutters the 21-year-old UNLV product has tallied a .295 average with six home runs and 25 RBI in 45 minor league contests. Last week I spoke with the lefty hitting Stott to discuss his transition to professional baseball, joining the Phillies organization and plenty more.  Read ahead for that interview.  -Obviously, your performance and the production on the field is going well, but how do you feel you have adapted to the pro life? It feels good.  You hear about the everyday grind, but you don't really believe it till you feel it. I would say that's the difference between college and the pros, is you're not practicing, you're playing games every day.  I would say that's the biggest difference.  But I...

Velasquez shut down, Eflin on deck?

Eflin with Reading in 2015, image- Jay Floyd Following Vincent Velasquez leaving his start after just two pitches for the Phillies on Wednesday, righty prospect Zach Eflin was pulled from his start for Triple-A Lehigh Valley at Gwinnett. The 22-year-old sports a 5-1 record with a 3.14 ERA and a .210 batting average against in 10 starts for the IronPigs this season. He could take the place of Velasquez if he is required to miss any additional time. Initial word on Velasquez after he threw two fastballs that clocked in the 86-87 MPH range (considerably slower than the 94 MPH he averages) and was swiftly pulled from his outing, is that he has a biceps strain. He'll be further evaluated in the coming days. Prior to the regular season, Eflin got a taste of competing against big leaguers when he was charged with 12 runs (nine earned) on 11 hits while striking out two and walking one with a wild pitch in three innings of work in an intrasquad exhibition that pitted the Phils...
