Phillies GM Matt Klentak contradicted manager Pete Mackanin yesterday by saying that the Phillies are committed to giving Maikel Franco more time to snap his slump, Mr. Met got fired for flipping off a fan yesterday and James Paxton is the seventh-hardest throwing starting pitcher in baseball history

Manny Machado is walking more than ever, but he is also striking out more than ever, hitting .225 on the season. He threw his big wad of gum at a bird yesterday, and his antics are much more disturbing when he is batting .225 than when he is hitting bombs. Ugh.
