Why the Phillies will Win the World Series

They started off with a 4-11 record in the first three weeks of the baseball season. Fans were already throwing in the towel, but there are reasons to believe again. Aside from the 5 game win streak they are currently on, there is a lot more promise.

• If their bullpen didn't blow there last two loses, they would be on an 8-game win-streak and 10-9 for the season.
• They led in all of the loses except for 2 games.
  
• They lost 4 games out of 11 in extra-innings
• Utley is finally coming around
• Howard has just started to hit the ball again
• Rollins is off to an amazing start
• Our problem was hitting and relief-pitching, know one thought that hitting was going to be a problem, but it seems like we finally solved that problem in the last couple of games.
  
• Relief pitching has just received a huge bolster to their staff, adding ace Brett Myers as a set-up man, and possible closer.
  
• Cole Hamels is proving to be quite the pitcher with 15 k's in his last outing
• Having Hamels, Garcia, Moyer, Lieber and Eaton is pretty damn good.
• Victorino is being a solid 2nd lineup man, he is providing a torpedo like arm in right field, dominating the bases, and giving the team another everyday player.
• Burrell has finally started to play again, leading the team in batting average with runners in scoring position. (Where in the world did this come from)
• Howard, although has been throwing a few tantrums, has started hitting homers again.
• Dobbs, and Helms are proving they aren't just no namers.
• Our early problems in the season are best to get out of the way in the beginning than in the end of the season.
  
• The Phillies are an end of the season team, if they can work their way out of April with at least a .500 winning percentage we should be pretty content as Philly fans.
• Manual enjoys the double switch all of the sudden
• Madson is still a solid relief pitcher, and Gordon hasn't lost his touch. If they can keep it together and work out the rust they showed in the beginning of the season, we should be right up there with the Braves and Mets.
• Remember Gillick likes to trade away players that we as Philly fans adore, expect a Burrell/Rowand trade to come real soon with new batting skills. Maybe we will actually get someone of this trade. (Gillick you will never be forgiven for giving away Abreau, Cormier, Dellucci, and Lidle(RIP))
• Rowand has really been showing off his batting skills, and should be moved behind Burrell in the line up.
  

• The one suggestion I have is maybe switching Eaton with Myers.

All things consider, everyone seems to have worked out their kinks thus far. Howard is still struggling with .207 average, besides that we are looking deliciously good. With a 5 game win streak, and a current record at 9-11. Watch out, because there just getting started.
