A little of both, Macho.
this is the best offense in the history of sport
I left the game at 0-0, just tuned in to find we're gonna lose 5-0, or more. Watching the Phillies has become like watching a company game where the employees are just playing for fun and to loosen up before they tear into the sandwiches and beer.
Burnett to the Pirates. Trade Bastardo for a minor league starter. Howard to anyone and pay half his salary. Trade Paps to the tigers and eat about 3 million of his salary.Who do you get rid of and how? Byrd and Papelbon are about the only easily movable players right now. Neither of which will garner much of a return. Although I'd be willing to move Paps just to move him.
Rollins - 10 and 5
Utley - 10 and 5
Howard - Who wants that contract right now?
Lee - No trade to over 2/3 of the league. Might make 2 starts by trade deadline.
Burnett - Pitching with a hernia.
Brown - Who wants him? You'll get nothing in return anyway
Revere - s/a/a
Chooch - Battling concussion
Asche - You'd be out of your mind.
Hamels - s/a/a
So what's your plan?
jvett, how did that "don't sell at the trade deadline" last year, work out for ya?
lol. Would we have any more wins? The young hitters brought up are doing little. Selling means collecting all the unwanted garbage from teams who need a cheap, temporary quick fix. I had been hoping for a smooth changeover from old to young, but it's nor working out, and I'm still glad they tried it. Selling last year or this year, we will still be looking at years of baseball development down the road.
