PhoulBallz Interview With Carlos Ruiz


Carlos Ruiz spent the past couple days rehabbing from concussion symptoms with the Phillies Class A affiliate Lakewood BlueClaws. The stop was a success, as Ruiz went 4-for-8 with 2 doubles in two games played for Lakewood. "Chooch" is expected to be activated to the Major League roster this weekend. I had the opportunity to speak with the man they call "Chooch" about his return to his minor league roots, the Phillies pitching staff, his feelings on the phans as well as his feelings on frozen treats.

Check out the media player below to listen to the full interview.

This interview was recorded during BP. Afterward, I fetched my laptop, headed to the lockerroom and showed the .gif image to Chooch. He laughed, but was fixed on the TV, watching Cliff Lee/Rangers news unfold.
After the game, he passed me on his way out, shook my hand, then thrusted his fist in true IceCream4Chooch fashion and smiled at me.

It is official- Chooch loves IceCream(4Chooch)!

Listed at six-foot-one, 210-pounds, Wilson opened the 2022 campaign with Class A Advanced Jersey Shore.  The 22-year-old has been slow to start offensively, but confidence and poise are not a problem for this strong, promising individual. On the base paths, Wilson is quick and can contribute with his feet.  Defensively, the Alabama native will likely play left or right field moving forward.  Possessing an ability t

Ryan Madson is acting questionable

I've seen similar types of "poking fun" entries on other Phillies blogs. When this picture came across my desk today, I figured, "Why not...?" Ryan Madson was out on the town (Manayunk) over the weekend and was photographed acting pretty with a purse slung over his shoulder and being chummy with a friend of mine. Can I really call him a friend, if he's actually my friends' friend , and I only prank called him once? Sure, why the heck not?!
