Headline Topic: What do Phillies' Late-Season Efforts Mean for This Season and Next?
An absolute wipe out last night of the New York Mets 16-1 reminded me of the 'good old days' (2007-2009) when the Phillies' offense was often humming. While it's still is a long-shot for the team to make the playoffs this season, at least fans can see that they are trying.
As far as next season goes: There still is a good core of players on this team. Along with them and a few other additions (at least CF, probably a LF and one solid 8th inning guy) their is the potential for a playoff rebound next year.

Another Eagles last-moment win, as they defeated the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.
With all deep analysis left to those who have far more football experience than I do, can a team continue to play the way that it has and still win on a consistent basis?
