Every afternoon, I hit up Starbucks for my midday coffee fix and today was no different. As I waited for my triple-skim-grande-wet cappuccino with an extra shot, the part time manager was behind the machines and he happens to be a huge Seattle Mariners fan, as well as a stats guru.

Over the past four seasons, the Philadelphia Phillies have easily been one of the top three teams across Major League Baseball. In that time the Phillies have been the NL Champions three times, the 2008 World Series Champs, went back to World Series again in 2009 and made the post season in 2010. Also, the [...]
