I wouldn't be totally surprised if we hired Colletti after we fired Amaro. I'm not exactly jazzed about that possibility, but you could do much worse.

What chance does a Ruben Amaro $180M payroll team have against an Andrew Friedman $240M payroll team?

We have like 5 on staff, let's trade him any 3 for Yasiel Puig. Like Amaro, Gillick and Lee Thomas.

The type of "promotion" Amaro deserves
(Brandy) only hinted at Halladay's personal issues during her Hall of Fame speech last July, when she said, "Roy would want everyone to know that people are not perfect. We're all imperfect and flawed in one way or another. We all struggle."
