Hold off buying those Giants’ seasons tickets! With the signing of Cliff Lee, the Baseball Gods (East Coast Media Reps) have declared that the Philadelphia Phillies now have the best pitching staff in history and will be World Series champions from now until forever.
You remember Cliff Lee? He was the Ranger pitcher who was going to handcuff all those pot-smoking thong-waving Spanish-speaking creaky old Giants on the way to an inevitable Ranger triumph in the World Series.
Yeah, and the Phillies – that’s the team that was going to bash the upstart Giants into oblivion.
It’s like torture has taught them nothing.
