2012 Philadelphia Phillies Outlook
While the 2011 Philadelphia Phillies were one of the best teams on paper in all of Major League Baseball last year, their surprising playoff exit at the hands of the St. Louis Cardinals proved that you still have to win on the diamond. The most dominant pitching staff in all of baseball, featuring the incomparable Roy Hallady, Cliff Lee and former World Series MVP Cole Hamels, is back and more determined than ever to shut down all opponents in 2012. While the fourth member of last year’s staff, Roy Oswalt, didn’t return in 2012, the Phillies have a healthy Joe Blanton determined to make his impact on the starting rotation this year.

Make sure you get your 2012 Phillies tickets as this team looks locked and loaded for another World Series run this year. The starting rotation looks as ferocious as ever, and the back of the bullpen has been bolstered by adding former Red Sox closer Jonathon Papelbon as the new closer. Red Sox fans remember the outspoken closer dancing on the field after finishing the 2007 World Series by striking out the Rockies to seal the deal, and the Phillies are hoping for a similar ending to their 2012 season. Make sure you get out to Citizens Bank Park to catch this team in action! You can get all the Phillies tickets you desire from Ticket Liquidator. Sure, the Philadelphia Phillies have arguably the best starting pitching rotation in all of baseball, but a team still has to outscore the opponent to rack up wins in the MLB.
Well, it’s a good thing the Phillies are stacked with hitters as well, starting with last years’ leader in batting average, Shane Victorino or the “Flyin’ Hawaiian.” Victorino is joined by former National League MVP Jimmy Rollins at shortstop, a speedy and dangerous hitter who sets the plate for the big man in the middle, Ryan Howard. Howard is a monster in the middle of the lineup and hits the cover off the ball when he connects. Manager Charlie Manuel will have a hard time with so many hitters and he’ll have to figure out how to juggle this tremendous lineup but it’s a problem he is happy to have. Phillies fans have no shortage of hitting on their team, so you can be sure they will be heading to Ticket Liquidator to buy all the Phillies tickets they can this year.

Besides Victorino, Howard and Rollins, the Phillies also have Placido Polanco returning to health this year, a solid hitter who sprayed the ball all over the park while playing for the Detroit Tigers in the World Series a few years ago. If Chase Utley can return to form after an injury-plagued 2011, he is one of the best hitters in baseball. Did we mention that rising star Hunter Pence, who came over from the Houston Astros at the trade deadline last year, adds another dimension to an already loaded lineup? As if that wasn’t enough, the Phillies also signed veteran Jim Thome, a reclamation project for sure after a disappointing 2011 campaign, but one of the best power hitters in baseball if he can return to form. With all these hitters, fans who buy cheap Phillies tickets from TL will get to see the ball peppered all over Citizens Bank Park in 2012!
