wow. What a terrible inning. Valverde has really been terrible. Not a single 1-2-3 inning. Twice blown three run leads. That should've been a fantastic win, manly performance from the bottom of the rotation on the road at a good team. Then the big-time closer comes in and melts down, Farnsworth-style.

Damn I wanted to see Brad Lidge perform like an all-star against the Astros.

Valverde is the new Woody Williams as far as I'm concerned. It's going to take more than a few saves and fist pumping to win back my confidence. He's in a hole almost to China in my eyes.

I think the suckiness comes from the Houston on the jersey. Sorry folks. I know it hurts.

This guy went from the NL saves leader to the new Brad Lidge.

Guys....things like this happen to bad teams....we are a bad team....inconsistent hitting and pitching....as I posted earlier, it's not like we have a reliable arm anywhere near our bullpen....who is the alternative? Brocail? Geary? Villareal? Borkowski? We just have to roll with Valverde's suckiness and realize that this is not a contending team.

Umm, how about Shaun Chacon? Didn't need an alternative tonight.

Will people be asking pre-Phillies and post-Phillies?

But Valverde sucked before tonight. If it's mental, he's ****ed after tonight.

Except for the fact that Lidge's ERA in a "down" year was 3.36, while Valverde's ERA is 11.37. They're exactly the same!!!

I wish Cooper would have just stayed with what was working. Why pinch hit in that situation with no men on? If Valverde fails, then you essentially screw over a masterful Chacon performance.

Just goes to show you how well Chacon pitched..valverde couldnt even hold em one inning. I think I would have pulled him after the three runs. Such a shame for Chacon to not get the win.
