Here is a fun fact: Roy Halladay will be on the cover for Sports Illustrated’s baseball preview for the second straight year.
But this time, he’s got a little help from his friends.
I’m sure by the petitioning of his teammates, Joe Blanton will join the Phantastic Phour on the cover of this week’s SI. The issue will be out on news stands on Wednesday.
And this may be my favorite cover yet!
I know the rest of the baseball world is sick of hearing about the Phillies rotation. Hell, there have been some desperate Braves thinking their rotation is better (HAHAHA).
So baseball world, for the 45,000th time, your 2011 Philadelphia Phillies starting rotation!
Interesting how Cliff got the center spot in the photo.
I think he got it because without Lee, the rotation wouldn’t garner this type of national attention.
