Phillies Phodder: Weekly Report - 7/20/1987
Record: 40-51, 6th Place 9 GB (2-2)
Power Ranking: 18th, 80.1 pts
Fan Interest/Loyalty: 71/Below Average
Owner Mood: Very Happy
Hot Players:

SP Don Carman - 2-0, 14.1 IP, 12 K, 0.63 ERA
SP Bruce Ruffin - 2-0, 25 IP, 11 K, 0.72 ERA
3B Mike Schmidt - 12-25 .480, 2 HR, 5 RBI

Cold Players:

None

Injuries:

None

Transactions:

Promoted RF Jeff Stone (20/20)) from AAA Maine
Waived SP Joe Cowley (20/20)
Demoted SP Joe Cowley (20/20) to AAA Maine
Assigned SP Craig McMultry (20/20) to AAA Maine

Notes:
McMultry was terrible, 13.50 ERA, 10.18 FIP, 13 BB in 12 IP. I waived and DFA'd him. Noboby claimed him so I sent him to AAA Maine where I was hit with a lot of injuries. Cowley, was not very good either, in his 3 starts: 15.1 IP, 12 BB, 8.80 ERA, 6.88 FIP, 3 HR, 11 Ks. He was out of options so I had to waive him. Once he clear waivers, i sent him to AAA. I offered a few minor league contracts to pitchers because I was down to 9 healthy pitchers. I brought up Stone because I needed another OF and he was already on 40 man roster. With 10 days to trade deadline, I will start shopping my vets around, focusing on the Win Now teams.

The AL beat the NLs 4-2, here is how my All-Stars performed:

C Lance Parrish - 0-2, 2 K, 1 BB
1B Von Hayes - Defensive replacement
2B Juan Samuel - 0-1 1K, HBP, R
3B Mike Schmidt - 1-2, 2B, 2 BB
SP Don Carmen - 1 IP, BB, K

Division Leaders:
AL East: Boston 58-35
AL West: Kansas City 54-37
NL East: Pittsburgh 49-42
NL West: Cincinnati 54-38

Notable MLB News:
Minnesota trades 1B Kent Hrbek (75/75) and 47K to the White Sox for SP Jack McDowell (35/65) and minor leaguers RP Ramon A. Garcia (20/55), SP Argenis Cortes (20/35), C Todd Trafton (20/20) and SP Doug Little (20/20)
The Dodgers trade CF Franklin Stubbs (40/40) to San Diego for minor leaguers LF Mark Gillaspie (30/30) and C Jim Tatum (20/55)
