Question:

Who deserves blame for the Phils recent downfall?

by | earlier

-Ryan "K/Stone hands" Howard for his remarkable Rob Deer like quality except with a worse glove?

-JRoll "Mr. MVP/hater",Blame the fans and not take responsibilty for your team and YOUR inability to take a walk from time to time?

-Milt Thompson"Hitting coach" who has no idea what he's doing?

-Charlie Manuel"Manager" for not rallying the troops like any good skipper is supposed to do?

-Brett Myers-Has one good game but has been terrible all year?

-Pat Gillick"GM"-We don't need CC Sabathia we have Adam Eaton..?

Signed,

Long suffering Phils fan for 34 years.

Frankly I think its the whole team. There cant be one person that causes a team to go downhill. I just think the whole team hasnt played well and Gillick didn't take a risk and try and get CC. As a GM you have to make risky trades and sometimes there good and sometimes there bad. Thats what seperates J.P. Riccardi from Brain Cashman.

It's the whole team. Of course, certain players stand out more then others as to who is really to blame but, you win as a team and lose as a team. Tonight's game was.. I really don't have the right words to say for tonight's loss. Now we are 2.5 games back from the Mets and now the Dodgers are coming to town, who keep in mind swept us the last time we saw them about a week and a half ago. They need to get out of this offensive slump real quick because if they don't it's going to cost them.

Sorry, everyone on the Phillies gets the blame since they are a team, after all.

Big Phils Phan here...

The problem cannot be pinpointed on one person, section, or event. It is getting late in the season and they are slipping. Good News I believe though. They like to win. This is one of the most determined Phils teams i have seen in a while. September is coming, and that means one thing...METS CHOKE. Utley needs to pick up to his standards...Victorino needs to play as he is (AWSOME) ...Manuel knows what he is doing, just needs to get his point to the players. Howard is picking up Defensively finally...Burrell..MAN Give him some credit! People boo him unbelievable...he is a hero in my eyes...look at his career stats please! J-Rol...not the right thing to say, but still dedicated.

Just wait...it will all kick in, and they will Fight....they are the Fightin' Phils!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

There is only one October...they're can only be one winner

That can ONLY be the Phillies!

I don't think its necessarily a downfall....we just aren't hitting, period. Our pitching lately has been great and has kept us in games, but we don't hit. I'm going to the game tomorrow against the dodgers and I hope we can hit like theirs no tomorrow.
