The Giants/Red Sox/Dodgers decade is coming to an end, and even after a long rebuild, the Phils still have more playoff series wins from 2010 to now (1) than Harper and Trout have combined

disappointed that my gag on the thread title struck out. Still trying to think of how I could've done that better.

Could almost get a full lineup out of the ex-Phillies on this year's Hall of Fame ballot.


Besides holdovers Curt Schilling, Billy Wagner and Scott Rolen, you've got newcomers Roy Halladay, Roy Oswalt, Placido Polanco, Freddy Garcia, Michael Young and Juan Pierre. Feel like Kevin Youkilis should get honorary ex-Phillie status for being included in so many trade rumors.

That's one way to spin it. The news was that they asked for it back.

i don't believe they "asked for it back" until they released a statement today. the donation was dated 11/23 anyway.

Why is "MLB" donating to politicians of either political party, anyway?
(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."

Who was the oldest player in MLB in 2018? Colon? Looks like he's about toast... if so, I may finally have reached the threshold where I'm older than any MLB player.

I'm older than most managers and GMs.

Yes, by a few months over Ichiro.

Looks cool. Who's going to pay for it?

The privately financed ballpark will anchor a new, vibrant waterfront district that will feature a mix of housing, including affordable housing, offices, restaurants, retail, small business space, parks and public gathering spaces.


How will the new ballpark be funded?
The new ballpark will be 100% privately financed by the Oakland A's.
