Spring is here!

[Retroram52]

I am pretty sure we were all saying the same things last year about this time of the year, jvett. Last place staring us in the face AGAIN even though it is only spring training. And how did the season turn out? Maybe there is a connection? lol.

Here is a couple of guys that may provide some much needed help in the pitching department and we can afford both. I doubt if Klentak is going to do anything because there are no dumpsters involved.

Four reasons why the Phillies should consider signing two free-agent pitchers

This will be interesting to watch. No one can predict what they'll do. I'm guessing they'll sign one solid starter. Maybe they want also to let ST play out to monitor their young starters for solid/lame performances. But by then, the best FAs could be gone.

Well, retro, I think they deserve another week of ST before we all start hitting the bottle. Joseph, Crawford, Kingery, Alfaro, and Quinn have impressed. Joseph is solid trading material or great off the bench.

I wonder, can he bunt.

Vinnie managed 2 scoreless innings today. Hope that makes your day jvett. Leiter continues to impress.
Just wanted to say something positive.

 

[Retroram52]

Yep Northeast. After 4 or 5 seasons of garbage, you really have to work to say something positive about this team... ...AGAIN!!

Second Nor'easter in progress here. Should be 12 inches +. At least I can watch wins over the Sox and Yanks today and Thursday, that is, if the power lines hold up.

I think we'll sign one of them. Not sure who I'd prefer. And the Nats would be stupid not to sign one, with Harper potentially leaving next year even if they have to pat the luxury tax.

WOW! Phillies down 6-1 and then come back to win 7-6 over Yanks. Mostly scrubs getting it done. But it is
win number 6.

They look better in the early standings now.

 

[Retroram52]

I am still skeptical at this point. I'll reserve any celebrating until later.

 

[jvett77]

Freaking Eickhoff.

 

[Retroram52]

LOL! jvett, you sure do get tortured with these diabolical Phillies!!
