  What is the point of trying to get him a win? So he has 15 for the year?

  How is that even possible? Put Hamels in if they take the lead after the 5th?

  Yes they would like to get him to win 15. They were talking about it earlier today. Don't really see a problem with it.

  No, the plan is for Blanton to go about 3 innings. A starter has to go 5 innings to qualify for the win. If the Phillies have the lead when Hamels enters the game and its before the 5th and they don't lose that lead for the whole game, the official scorer chooses which pitcher qualifies for the win. If Hamels goes 2 or 3 innings, he'd probably get it.

  Thats so lame lol. If you want a guy to get a W, put him out there for a real win. That is fucking stupid.

  Similar to Reyes bunting for a hit in his first at bat and then leaving the game with a lead for the batting title.
