Matt Gelb will No Longer be a Phillies Beat Writer in 2015, Will Instead Write about Less Depressing Things

Screen Shot 2014-12-30 at 12.50.34 PM

After five years on the Phillies beat, writing about everything from what Ruben Amaro is doing wrong to what Ruben Amaro isn’t doing right, Matt Gelb is switching over from writing about endlessly depressing, repetitive, no-end-in-sight problems to writing about city news for the Inquirer. We’ll miss copy-pasting his work for clicks.

When he's not writing about sports here or ranting about them on Twitter, Jim is probably watching X-Files on Netflix or drinking a beer somewhere. Jim has nothing against hockey, it's just not his style. He once met Duce Staley at a Sixers game.

    Good one. Wonder where you got that joke, George Lopez. Oh yeah, that’s right.

    @MattGelb but seriously folks… thanks for letting me blockquote your material and pass it off as a blog post all those years.

  4. Won’t miss him. He showed a little contempt for his readers while only 5 yrs out of college and no bball background himself. Most of us know more about the game than he does.

    1. True fact…Matt Gelb had never even ATTENDED a major league baseball game in person before his assignment as beat writer for the Inquirer, the worst sports section in America.

      Wait…..they do have Frank Fitzpatrick……

  5. I’m really loving the theme/design of your site. Do you ever run into any
    web browser compatibility issues? A number of my blog visitors have complained
    about my website not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Safari.
    Do you have any ideas to help fix this problem?

  6. Estaba buscando esa informacion hace duración, te lo agradezco,
    estoy de resolución con tu punto de vista y pasto igual.
    Despues de buscar mucho por Internet encontre lo que buscaba.
    Genial!!! muchas muchas gracias
