Is Shane Headed Back To Phillly?

[jvett77]

Just heard Boston's Victorino was named starting RF and Jackie Bradley was demoted to AAA. This seems odd in view of ST stats. Maybe they want to dump Vic to the OF-starved Phillies so Amaro can see him in action in the upcoming three game series. Maybe package him in a Hamels trade? After all, the guy's a RH and he's only 34.

Boston's OF (ST)
Betts .451 23/51
Bradley Jr. .378 17/45
H. Ramírez .269 14/52
Victorino .158 6/38

Could be but why bother. The Phillies already have some very good young OFs. Oh, I forgot. Braindead likes aging players he can throw money at.

too many high paid OFers...and shane doesnt lose his job due to injury. he hasnt exactly been subtle about his desire to stay in RF.

hes 34...time is his worst enemy.

if he struggles early...he sits, rusney gets the nod...and maybe shane is moved.

it stinks too...he was so fun in the last WS run.

fenway signing "every little thing, gonna be alright" in unison will stick with me.

There will be no Victorino return. Plus the only way that could happen is if the Red sox trade for Hamels. The
Phillies want prospects for Hamels not retreads. With that being said I hope Victorino has a good year in Boston.

My attempt at being facetious in light of all the dumb moves made in the past.

And a magnificent attempt it was, jvett.
