Player Notes
December 1, 2008
Updating earlier reports, the Phillies did not offer Jamie Moyer salary arbitration on Monday, according Philly.com.

Our View:There were reports earlier in the day that said that the Phillies were expected to offer the 46-year-old arbitration.
December 1, 2008
The Phillies are expected to offer Jamie Moyer salary arbitration, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Our View:The team would like to have the 46-year-old pitcher back and Moyer feels the same way. He maintained a 1.33 WHIP while nailing down 16 wins for the champs in 2008.
November 14, 2008
Free agent hurler Jamie Moyer reiterated that he wants to return to the Phillies, possibly with a two-year deal, according to MLBblogs.com.

Our View:He will turn 46 later this month, but did not show his age in 2008 by maintaining a 1.33 WHIP over 196.1 innings, while nailing down 16 wins.
November 1, 2008
Free agent pitcher Jamie Moyer wants to return to the Phillies, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Our View:Moyer is 46 and has just won a World Championship, but a solid season has him in line to make a few more million. He was 16-7 with a 3.71 ERA in 2008.
October 25, 2008
Phillies starter Jamie Moyer threw his customary 82 mph fastballs, which were effective in Game 3 of the World Series as he went 6.1 innings, allowing five hits and three earned runs while also striking out five.

Our View:Moyer was good in his start, and did all he could to give Philadelphia a chance to win the game.
October 25, 2008
45-year-old Jamie Moyer will make his first start in a World Series game tonight at home against the Rays, according to the AP. Moyer said, "It’s very special to have the opportunity to just be in the World Series. But to have it be in the city that you grew up in, more or less, is very special. To get the start for Game 3 is something that I’ve been dreaming about for my whole life."

Our View:He was born in Sellersville, PA, and has a shot to give the underdog Phillies a lead in the series, as it is currently tied 1-1.
October 19, 2008
Jamie Moyer has been slated to take the hill in Game 3 of the World Series, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. Cole Hamels will start Game 1, Brett Myers will follow in Game 2, and Joe Blanton will pitch Game 4 after Moyer.

Our View:The 45-year-old vet led the Phillies with 16 wins in the regular season but has been hit hard in the postseason, allowing eight runs in 5.1 innings for a 13.50 ERA. He has suffered the team's two losses, but skipper Charlie Manuel is confident he will bounce back.
October 12, 2008
Jamie Moyer lasted just 1.1 innings in Game 3 of the NLCS on Sunday. He gave up six runs on six hits. Rafael Furcal's solo home run chased him from the game.

Our View:Perhaps the 45-year-old was a bit worn down from the previous 3746.2 regular season innings he had thrown. Whatever the reason, the Philadelphia left-hander did not have his best stuff in Game 3.
October 4, 2008
Jamie Moyer allowed two earned runs on four hits over four innings in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Brewers in Game 3 of the NLDS at Miller Park, with three walks and three strikeouts.

Our View:The Phillies held a 2-0 lead in the best-of-five series heading into tonight's game, but the 45-year-old vet failed to close the door, and Milwaukee survives for Sunday's Game 4.
September 27, 2008
Jamie Moyer helped pitch the Phillies into the playoffs for the second straight year. In the Phillies' 4-3 win over the Nationals, Moyer went six innings and only gave up one run.

Our View:The ageless one just continues to impress. Moyer won his 16th game of the year and lowered his ERA to 3.71.
September 21, 2008
Jamie Moyer pitched his way to his 15th victory of the year on Sunday holding the Marlins to just a single run over six innings.

Our View:Amazing. Moyer lowered his ERA to 3.78 and he is now just five victories short of 250 career wins despite the fact that he throws slower than the local high school phenom in your area. Moyer continues to throw strikes while keeping hitters off balance as he defies Father Time.
September 10, 2008
Phillies left-hander Jamie Moyer will pitch on three days rest in order to face the Brewers on Thursday, according to the Philadelphia Daily News.

Our View:Moyer has had a good season for fantasy owners, so be sure to adjust your lineup accordingly. He will attempt to pick up his 14th win of the season as Philly tries to nail down a playoff spot.
September 7, 2008
Jamie Moyer continued his great season, winning his 13th game of the year by going seven innings and allowing just two hits in the Phillies 6-2 win over the Mets.

Our View:Moyer had one rough start in the month of August, but has otherwise been outstanding of late. He is 45 years of age, and will pitch again next year, so his recent play is encouraging in that respect.
August 27, 2008
45-year-old Jamie Moyer said he plans to pitch next season, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Our View:Moyer has pitched very well in 2008, compiling a record of 11-7, with a 3.81 ERA. He also has a WHIP of 1.35, and has a strike out rate of 5.71 batters per nine innings. There's no reason to think he couldn't be of use to fantasy owners again next year.
August 16, 2008
Jamie Moyer won the old geezer battle Friday, tossing seven shutout innings to beat Greg Maddux and the Padres.

Our View:With a 3.64 ERA over 25 starts, the 45-year-old Moyer is putting together his best season since 2003.
August 5, 2008
Jamie Moyer is perfect in 10 starts against the Marlins, including three this season. The veteran left-hander sports an impressive 2.79 ERA in his past nine starts, and the Marlins are hitting only .230 against southpaws, last in the majors. Moyer and the Phils host the Marlins and Josh Johnson tonight in a battle for NL East supremacy.

Our View:There are several Fish sticks that have had their success against Moyer, but the crafty left-hander has found a way to squash the muscle in the Marlins lineup and win 10 straight times against Florida.
July 24, 2008
Jamie Moyer gave up just two hits but walked three in seven innings of work against the Mets on Thursday. He allowed one run and did not factor in the decision.

Our View:Moyer has given up just four runs in his last 20 innings pitched. He remains a far better play on the road where he has a 2.93 ERA compared to a 4.70 mark in Philly.
July 13, 2008
According to the Phillies team website, Jamie Moyer will open the second half on the mound Friday night in Florida. Kyle Kendrick will follow on Saturday and Cole Hamels will round out the three games series against the Marlins.

Our View:The Phillies aren't sure who will pitch Tuesday and Wednesday against the Mets at Shea Stadium, though it's possible Adam Eaton will start the first game and Brett Myers will return on Wednesday.
July 10, 2008
Jamie Moyer threw seven strong innings, allowing just one run on seven hits while striking four in the Phillies 4-1 victory over the Cardinals.

Our View:Moyer now has a 3.95 ERA on the season, to go with eight wins. He won't put up big strikeout numbers, but fantasy owners in NL-only leagues should consider him an option.
July 5, 2008
Jamie Moyer failed to secure his eighth victory of the season on Saturday night though he held the Mets to three runs over 6.2 innings.

Our View:That's five straight outings for Moyer of three or fewer runs allowed as he continues to give his club a chance to win every time he takes the hill, something he has been able to do since roughly the Jurassic age.
June 29, 2008
Jamie Moyer continues to be a victim of bad run support. The ageless lefty lost his third straight start on Sunday. He allowed three runs over 5.2 innings against the Rangers. Moyer served up seven hits, walked four, and struck out six. He has allowed three or fewer runs in five straight starts.

Our View:The crafty Moyer is pitching about as well as the Phillies can expect, but their lineup has produced a total of 10 runs over his last five outings. We guess karma is swinging back after the Phillies supplied Moyer with an average of nine runs per start in May.
June 24, 2008
Veteran LHP Jamie Moyer suffered another tough loss this evening as the Phillies fell 5-2 against Oakland. Moyer pitched 6 2/3 innings to allow three runs (all earned) on five hits with one walk and nine strikeouts.

Our View:Moyer has been pitching in the majors since 1986, so losses like this won't phase him, but it does taint what has been an otherwise strong month, going 2-2 with just 12 earned runs allowed over five starts.
June 24, 2008
Jamie Moyer will be seeking his eighth win of the season tonight when the Phillies battle the Athletics in Oakland, according to MLB.com. Moyer is 7-4 with a 4.09 ERA and 1.40 WHIP over 88 innings, with 47 strikeouts.

Our View:In 43 lifetime starts against the Athletics, Moyer is 17-15, including two shutouts, with a 4.46 ERA. But he isn't a favorable fantasy option as a starter, as his WHIP and ERA are a bit high, and he only averages around three strikeouts per start.
June 17, 2008
Jamie Moyer will be targeting his eighth win of the season tonight when the Phillies host the Red Sox in inter-league play, according to MLB.com. Moyer is 7-3 with a 4.12 ERA and 1.37 WHIP.

Our View:Moyer carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning in his last start against Florida, and ended with eight scoreless innings of work. He is pitching well right now, but only has 43 strikeouts over 83 innings and his WHIP is merely passable, meaning he still isn't a solid option for your roto-rotation.
June 12, 2008
Jamie Moyer had a no-hitter into the sixth inning and ultimately held the Marlins scoreless for eight innings to pick up his seventh win.

Our View:Moyer eventually allowed two hits and a walk, but as he has done for most of his career, Moyer baffled hitters on this night with a series of slow, and slower, offerings. With the offense behind him he is a solid bet for wins, but he offers nothing in the strikeout department and little help in the ratio categories.
June 1, 2008
Jamie Moyer picked up his fourth win in as many starts by defeating the Marlins on Sunday. The southpaw allowed five hits and five runs over seven innings. Moyer walked none and struck out three.

Our View:Let's hear it for run support! In Moyer's four wins, the Phillies have scored seven, 20, 12, and 10 runs. They also crossed the plate 11 times when Jamie picked up a win on May 5. Moyer has pitched decently, but fantasy owners shouldn't be fooled by the record.
May 26, 2008
Jamie Moyer allowed four runs on six hits, walked one and struck out seven Colorado Rockies to earn his 235th career victory.

Our View:He's one shy of tying Whitey Ford and Clark Griffith for 56th on the all-time list.
May 10, 2008
Philadelphia LHP Jamie Moyer continues to struggle through a rough start to the '08 season, suffering this third loss in troublesome fashion to the San Francisco Giants, 8-2. Moyer pitched just four innings, giving up six runs (all earned) on nine hits. Moyer struck out one, walked one, and allowed two home runs.

Our View:In fact, Moyer has allowed five homers over his last three starts, now touting an ERA of 5.02.
May 5, 2008
Jamie Moyer was at his best on Monday night, on the mound and at the plate. The Phillies left-hander allowed two runs on six hits, walking none and striking out five. Moyer went 2-for-3 at the plate with a run producing single in the win.

Our View:Moyer was just good enough to keep the Diamondbacks off balance, and the large strike zone of Jerry Meals helped him get several calls outside of the black.
April 19, 2008
Jamie Moyer lasted six innings, and though he was saddled with the loss, he didn't pitch badly allowing just two runs on seven hits and a walk.

Our View:When his control is on Moyer can still put up a lot of zeros, though of course his days as a top-flight hurler are long gone. Moyer has only seven K in 20.2 innings, so his value is limited mostly to W's at this point.
April 8, 2008
Jamie Moyer claimed his first win of the season today as he only allowed two runs on four hits over six innings of work against the Mets, with three walks and one strikeout. This was a good outing for the middle of the rotation starter, as most of the damage came on a Carlos Delgado solo homer in a 5-2 win.
March 25, 2008
Jamie Moyer had a rough outing from the hill on Monday as he surrendered three runs on eight hits (one home run) over four innings of work against the Yankees, with one walk and three strikeouts. Moyer has been hot and cold throughout spring training, but remains penciled in as the Phillies' middle of the rotation starter.
March 19, 2008
Jamie Moyer pitched five scoreless innings against Tampa Bay before getting rocked for three runs in the sixth inning. It was a favorable outing overall as he allowed six hits over 5.2 innings, with four strikeouts and three walks. He is expected to be the Phillies' number three starter in the rotation.
March 13, 2008
Jamie Moyer surrendered four runs on four hits over five innings of work against the Reds on Thursday. The aging vet picked up two strikeouts but walked three. His spring ERA rises to 4.50.
February 27, 2008
Jamie Moyer threw three scoreless innings on Wednesday for the Phillies, this according to the AP. The 45-year-old Moyer continues to defy Father Time with a slow and slower repertoire. Moyer has won at least 11 games in 11 of the last 12 seasons, so while his ratios might be a bit scary, he is still valuable in points based leagues.
