It's getting Rowdy in Los Angeles...

Rumors broke late Monday afternoon, that Los Angeles had acquired starting pitcher Harvey Phillips from the Haddonfield, for fan favorite; Manuel Rodriguez, former set-up man Floyd Faulkner, CF Jorge Gutierrez and SP Glenn Christensen who fell from grace during Spring Training.

While ManRod and Phillips have pitched do a duel this season, the lefty will help Los Angeles down the stretch run versus teams who prevent lefty heavy lineups. Los Angeles park should also provide a spark to Phillips whose coming from a different league and will now face real competition.

ManRod pulled up lame in his last start, so Phillips coming over is going to be a real godsend for the Bruins who would have had to slot Joe Brooks into the rotation, but were hesitant to do so after Brooks has dominated in the bullpen this season.

Los Angeles is looking forward, trying to catch Sacramento and having Phillips can't hurt.
