Remember that Chad Billingsley?

[WestCoastPhan]

from many years ago when he pitched against the phillies in the playoffs? he hasn't pitched much in the last couple of years. our genius gm is interested in adding "depth" to our starting rotation. ahahahaha! and vogelsong another broken down veteran...but hey, they are both local guys...

Phillies have strong interest in Chad Billingsley | Comcast SportsNet Philadelphia

 

[Cedrique]

I don't remember him, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's looking at Jack Billingham as well

 

[Cedrique]

or possibly Chad Ogea

 

[Cedrique]

or Barbara Billingsly

I don't remember him, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's looking at Jack Billingham as well

He started in 3 games of the NLCS against us in '08 & '09.

Now this idiot is just scraping the bottom of the barrel for what is anybody's guess!

 

[jvett77]

Chad and fartboy could compare injury notes in the dugout.

He started in 3 games of the NLCS against us in '08 & '09.

2008-2009 seems like a lifetime ago

Yes he did. The Phillies creamed him. Billingsley got mad at his catcher if I remember correctly.

 

[WestCoastPhan]

We just signed this fuc kin bum. He hasn't pitched in a couple of years. Gave him a million and a half dollars, too. Unreal

 

[Retroram52]

I knew it westcoast. A effin bum is right and like I stated earlier, rather than do the right thing and constructively trying to put together deals that would dump these ridiculous salries of the remaining albatrosses we still have on our roster, braindead goes looking for roadkill to scrape up and waste $1.5 million on. I am sick of this shit!!

 

[jvett77]

Wait a minute, do we have a new Phab Phive rotation?

 

[Retroram52]

The question jvett would be: Phab Phive of what?-geriatrics, turds, etc...

Yeah, retro. I see the likely top 4 in the rotation as Hamels (31), Lee (36), Williams (33), and Buchanan (25), with the 5th and 6th slots out of Aaron Harang (36), Billingsley (35), Jonathan Pettibone (24), and Miguel González (28). Spring training will be interesting. I assume Hamels will eventually go.

The bullpen will get overworked (because the Phils lost 1/3 of their HRs (42 of 125) without Byrd and Rollins, and so far no replacements for that power. Asche and Brown may fill the gap, but Brown's a party animal and a dancer.

 

[Retroram52]

Brown is a waste of a roster spot.

 

[jvett77]

I'd give him 3 months to produce and send him down if he blows it.

 

[Retroram52]

I agree jvett!
