Shocking News!

Cole Hamels won't start Sunday as planned after experiencing elbow soreness during a bullpen session Thursday. Thanks, Decker! The Phillies are still trying (lying) to pass this off as a minor issue. "There's nothing structurally wrong; the ligament's attached," assistant GM Ruben Amaro Jr. said. "We have no reason to believe this to be anything long term." Except for the fact that he's a 23-year-old pitcher with a history of serious arm issues, and Decker owns him (thanks again!). Hamels described the discomfort as minimal (this is known as a lie). He's to be shut down for another six days, so even in a best-case scenario, he'll make just three or four starts next month. And the kicker is: Awful Adam Eaton will pitch Sunday in his place. Expect plenty of s#i+ blowing up.
