This is accurate. Told you guys in one of the other threads the Phils want both for under 3 years. Or 2 with a team option.


i know you said you'd give the guy/gal a break, but can you pretty please ask when the trout deal will be done. tia


They are going to heavily pursue him the first chance he becomes available. Whether it's trade or free agency. I was told this weeks ago. And adding Harper just increased their chances being able to sell him on having the best outfield duo in MLB history. Not to mention the local angle and such and joining by then what is hopefully a perennial contender.

It is one of the cool things about sports in this city. Players definitely get that promoting the other teams plays big here.

my thoughts on the deal:
Unbeleiveable amount..just to play baseball...while firemen and police and correctional officers are under paid

Negandhi: Bryce Harper’s .564 career slugging percentage at Citizens Bank Park ranks 1st among 71 players with at least 200 plate appearances there.
Rhys Hoskins ranks 2nd on that list (.562).
