Is another attempt at the dying art of dumpster diving after the fire?!

The fishing net. The only reason the Phillies would check on Santana would be if they are trying to trade
one of our outfielders. That way Hoskins could move to left field. However, if that happens we would be weaker
on defense since Hoskins is a better fielder at 1st than Santana. The Saga continues.

Indeed it does Northeast. Yet I get a distinct impression that this is going to end badly for Phillies fans again!

Maybe I'm bored but I've been thinking. Santana had a .260 BA and .363 OBP last year with 23 homers, playing in 154 games. Not shabby at all for a 31-year old. So assume your premise is correct. Should Knapp get a full shot at first? Only had 3 homers on the season. Nava, 35 in Feb., was .301/.393 with 4 homers. Both had less than 200 ABs. We know Stassi blows. Knapp should be backup to Alfaro and Rupp traded. I may need a drink but Santana could help the team in '18, although would he be just another Delmon? As you can see I need guidance if I'm Director of player personnel or GM.

jvett, I wouldn't state that you are bored but just being jvett in the winter. I think this is the time of the year when you start choppin' at the bit for more Phillies baseball and it just becuause irritating as hell. I would definitely consider you the ultimate fan right up there with Northeast, Cedrique, SnowDog, et.al !
