So I have a question..
Were these players they just added to the roster part of the 40 man roster? There were a few guys added on both teams. How far into the playoffs can they add a player?

I'm pretty sure that every team has to set their playoff rosters before September callups.
And that if you want to make any substitutions, it has to be because of an injury, or other special circumstance.

The postseason roster rules have changed a lot in the last few years
A team can make roster changes prior to the start of a new postseason series; also, a team can replace an injured player during a series, on the condition that the injured player is ineligible for the following series.

A Couple Uni Notes
1) I really like the Phillies road uniforms. The cursive “Phillies” looks cool. They’re classic greys. The numbers font is very nice. The blue highlights (stars and top of the cap) really add to them. And I totally dig the TV numbers on the left sleeve. Their home unis I don’t like so much. They look like peppermint sticks!
2) The big, ugly logos on both teams caps are teh suXXor. They’re especially awful on the Yankees caps, which are usually such classics.

While watching the Raiders-Jets game the other day
I was thinking that the Raiders and Yankees uniforms are the two “most classic” uniforms in all of professional sports. NOT “My Favorite” uniforms, but the uniforms that are the best match for their respective sports.
All cap logos are horrendous. Expect to see more of them over the next few years, though; it’s a logical place to put advertising.

Like watching a car wreck.
Bonus points for the Broncos road throwbacks, which (apparently accurately) featured the same yellow striped brown pants but replaced the brown and yellow vertical striped socks with brown and white vertical striped socks. Apparently these unis were the result of their owner buying second hand uniforms from a defunct college all-star game. They only came with one set of pants.
On the other hand, the TV numbers on the Broncos’ helmets are great.

The announcers on that game
were commenting that both teams were wearing the throwbacks and in the case of the Raiders you couldn’t really tell, except for the helmet logo. And I hope they never change. Same with the Yankees home unis; Jeter is wearing exactly what DiMaggio and Mantle wore and I don’t want to see that change either.

Jay-Z and Alicia Keys were invited to perform an expurgated version of “Empire State of Mind” tonight.
“Big Pimpin’” was a huge hit for Jay-Z that featured UGK, a rap duo from Port Arthur, TX, one of whose members, Pimp C, died of a drug overdose in the interim (I believe it was purple drank, for those keeping score at home).
Somehow “Big Pimpin’” seems like an appropriate song for those expensive seats in the New Yankee Stadium.

So, just going out on a limb here,
I think Philadelphia did good in that trade.

Great win
CC pitched well but Cliff was awesome. Let’s hope these two great pitchers can go again in game 4

Lee went on three days rest or is it more like 7 days b/c of the schedule

Radio guy:
Cliff, what was your secret to success tonight?
Lee: Throw strikes, mix speeds, stay out of the heart of the plate.
I will lay awake for hours tonight, thinking about these pearls of wisdom.

Pedro vs. Burnett. Should be a good one.

I really like Cliff Lee's attitude.

So much better than F-raud-style fist-pumping nonsense!
There is no "i" in Teamocil. At least not where you'd think.
