The Phillies went 1-6 this week. They were in 2 game series with the Cardinals and the Cubs, and lost 2 of 3 from Expos. With only 6 games left, I decided against bringing up any other players. At the end of the season, I will do a post on each minor league team and the Phillies as well. It's been a tough season but I felt that this season will help set up the future.

The following coaches have not agreed to contract extensions and have been let go: Maine Hitting Coach Jim Arevalo, Reading Pitching Coach Tim Crosley and Spartanburg Pitching Coach Pat Borchert.

The following players have filed their retirement papers:

C Charlie Moore - Age: 34, signed as FA in August. In 19 games at AAA Maine, he hit .169, with 0 HR, 8 RBI, 14 K, .459 OPS, 22 OPS+, -0.7 WAR
LF Joel Youngblood - Age: 36, signed as FA in June. In 34 games at AAA Maine, he hit .292, with 7 HR, 23 RBI, 26 K, .817 OPS, 114 OPS+, 0.4 WAR
