If the Phillies are going to get back to the World Series in 2010, they will need Cole Hamels to pitch like Cole Hamels and quit channeling his inner Tyler Green.

The Existence Machine (Free subscription) | yesterday
Speaking of baseball, as I was in passing below, I want to make a quick observation about sports fandom and the negative work it continues to do to reinforce accepted norms of masculinity and competition. Around June this year I unexpectedly found myself obsessively following the Phillies again, really for the first time since they lost the World Series in 1993 (after which I had moved just far enough...

The head of my school was kind enough to grab a blaster box of these Goodwin Champions in her recent visit to the US of A. I had asked for Goodwins or Allen+Ginter, I even wrote it on a post-it note, for fear of receiving another fat pack of Upper Deck. If you observe my recent posting here, you will notice that English people visiting the US gravitate towards Upper Deck and more specifically the 'Fat...

Here goes: 1. Brett Myers will not be back with the team. According to this report in the Philadelphia Inquirer , the never-dull righty will not be offered a contract. There could be many reasons for this -- that the Phillies have doubts about his health, his maturity, clubhouse chemistry, or his ability to pitch consistently. This would have been more of a surprise had Myers not had a dust up with...

PHILADELPHIA – Alex Rodriguez has one more reason to love the camera. His disputed drive into the right-field corner, originally ruled a double, was changed into a two-run homer when video technology was used to reverse a call for the first time in World Series history. "Well, it's only fitting, right?" Rodriguez said. He also homered in the first regular-season use of replay last year.

General manager Ruben Amaro Jr. gave Myers no reason for not negotiating a contract with the free agent pitcher.

Andy Martino, in a report for the Philadelphia Inquirer, says that the Phillies will not retain Brett Myers. Myers told Martino: “I officially won’t be a Phillie next year.” In eight seasons with the Phillies, Myers went 73-63 with a 4.40 ERA in 240 games, and had numerous off-the-field issues including a verbal altercation with Cole Hamels earlier [...]

I'm taking the Breakfast Links back to couple-times-a-week status for now, although that might change during the Winter Meetings and whatnot. Thanks to Wet Luzinski for handling probably the toughest day so far (I assure you I wasn't doing anything fun that morning). And thanks to everyone else for reading. We'll be here all offseason. Phillies may try to sign Cliff Lee to extension this off-season...

There's no strength or will here to give the Phillies a hometown boo. They didn't earn one. Sometimes, losing is just a no-fault bummer. The Phillies had three excellent chances to seize control of the World Series against the Yankees; at the start of Game Two, when they took a 3-0 lead in Game Three, and when they tied up Game Four in the bottom of the eighth. They couldn't take advantage of any of...
