What a day it was for the Phils today with wins on and off the field. First off the field they sent prospects Jared Cosart, Jonathan Singleton, Josh Zeid, and a player to be named later to the Astros for OF Hunter Pence. Pence is an immediate upgrade to the Phils lineup and should be penciled right in to right field and the 4th spot in the lineup. Meaning Dom Brown is probably headed to back to AAA for now. Meanwhile, while all that was going on behind the scenes,the Phils had a game to win against the Pirates tonight and boy did they. Roy Halladay threw 7 scoreless innings, Jimmy Rollins collected a homer, 2 RBIs, and 2 runs scored, and Chase Utley fell just a double short of the cycle with a homer and 4 RBIs as the overpowered Pittsburgh 10-3. Simply put when you spot Roy Halladay an 8-0 you're not going to win too often.
