Greinke probably makes the most sense as an impact trade target if ownership is willing to take the whole contract. Not just a rental but also Gotta figure that we wouldn’t have to trade Bohm in that deal (whereas we probably would for Tigers young lefty). Plus he’d be a potentially entertaining wild card/oddball in the locker room if the wheels do fall off this year

Should be fine.just so long as everyone washes their hands after they take a shit.

If we get Greinke I just pray Neshek can make a comeback.

Gabe probably hasn’t washed his hands in years and may not even wipe any more given that coco oil and ketosis have presumably given him a permanent ghost wipe situation

Just a matter of local interest, NJ.com this past week had a poll to choose the "Mt. Rushmore" ie four best athletes/coaches to come out of Haddonfield Memorial High School in South Jersey. The comments got lively when one guy wondered why Zach's dad, Don Greinke wasn't on the list, and how he would have wiped the track in the 440 vs one guy getting votes. The man making those comments was Don Greinke himself. Got into a nice back and forth with supporters and and detractors. Apparently 40-50 years is too short for rivalries to die.

#1 rh bat off the bench.

Tommy Hunter is done for the year, undergoing surgery for a flexor tendon repair.

Of course.

I think trading for him would be a risk, and I'd rather let another team take that risk. If you're going to go all in for a pitcher, I don't think Boyd is it.

This is where I'm at. I'm concerned that the Tigers are "selling high" on Boyd, and I don't think I want to be the one buying at that price.

Have been following bertt Myers on instragram and he’s definitely been hitting the sauce constantly in between trying to promote terrible country music but he may be worth a call to come be our Scott Eyre this yr

Performance wise I think this is probably the worst phillies pitching staff of the 21st century. Maybe even longer as I got too lazy to keep scrolling through year by year FG stats. The bullpen injuries have been brutal and far worse than could have reasonably been expected but not like they’ve lost key starters to injury. they’ve had the worst pitching in the NL this year I think. FIP of over 5 and SIERA around 4.6 as a staff. Defensive stats have actually been very good which is why we aren’t worst in runs allowed. Certainly not adjusting well to new life ball era - dare I say a precipitous decline from last year and looks like we’ll need significant help from outside the org to address moving forward. Hope middleton wants to keep spending silly $

What’s Jerome Williams up to

boyd was good at getting 3 popups with 2/3 runners on base

You need those

especially when your defense can't field ground balls

That's just sad.

"Mt Rushmores" belong in the sports cliche category.

Discussing Bauer trade with Indians per Morosi.

that guy is fucking awful human

So was Lenny and we loved him here in 93
