I hear they're in talks with Kimbrel.

If we sign him now, I'd have to imagine it would be nearly May before we see him since he had no spring training.
It would depend on how much throwing he has been doing on his own.

I would think it would be quicker than that, but will be happy either way.

Same here. I just remember signing Ervin Santana late and it being a while before he made his first start(fuck that guy BTW)

Yep. Holland signed late (I think it was last year) and got bombed repeatedly.

If Kimbrel gets anywhere near his asking price, (Max 3 years) it makes sense for both sides. Club/player options with incentives could be at play here too.

Therefore, it probably won't happen.

Phillies already have their lineup out for today. As expected:

McCutchen(R) LF Segura(R) SS Harper(L) RF Hoskins(R) 1B Realmuto(R) C Herrera(L) CF Hernandez(B) 2B Franco(R) 3B Nola(R) P

Over/Under on how many homers Harper hits off Julio today?

Julio is actually pretty good on opening day. Just needs to survive the 1st inning.

We have a lineup!

Inciarte CF
Donaldson 3B
Freeman 1B
Acuña LF
Markakis RF
Albies 2B
McCann C
Swanson SS
Teheran P

As expected for me. Glad to see Mac in there over Flowers. Inciarte needs to get off to a quicker start this year if he's going to stay in the leadoff spot.

Donaldson had better work out. I feel like Camargo is getting the shaft.
