Longtime Phillies reliever Rheal Cormier (right) has been designated for assignment by the Reds, meaning Cincinnati has 10 days to trade or release him. Might the Phillies, desperate for a dependable lefty reliever, be interested? From indications I've gotten, I doubt it. Cormier just turned 40 and allowed three runs in three innings for the Reds.Also, it appears Cardinals manager Tony La Russa is no fan of poetry. La Russa took exception to this poem mocking the Cubs that was printed in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch and is refusing to answer questions by Post-Dispatch reporters this weekend. Really, Tony? Don't you have better things to worry about, like the Cardinals' sub-.500 record?
Finally, Dontrelle Willis just completed the sixth inning, making him the all-time leader in innings pitched (854) in the long, storied history of the Marlins. Phillies trailing 10-5, top 7th.
