Is Charlie Manuel delegating a job to the Philly Fans? Talk about passing the buck. Phillies are not victims of their own complacency, what they are victims of is their own overachieving. Great teams thrive on the pressure to repeat, mediocre teams dive on the pressure to repeat. The Philly Fan dosen't have a job, its their dime to sit and watch. The Phillies have a job, its their time to hit and catch. The game really isn't complicated, just ask Yogi! Fans to toughen up on Phillies?

While the Phillies aren't playing well at home it's surely a good sign they can play on the road. Their home record will improve once the Phillies pitching gets in line because their offense will always be there. I think this was a good move by Charlie Manuel and there is without a doubt the honeymoon period will end in Philly and the fans will start to respond and push them along. Look for the Phils to rebound this weekend with a home series starting Friday against the Nationals.
