Also liked the expanded rosters in September, too bad Kapler ruined that for everyone.


^^^This, but limit the Sept rosters to 30 or so

So once Neshak and Seranthony are inevitably ruled out for the year, we’re down to, what, Nicasio (bc of $$) and Neris as projected opening day bullpen locks left standing?

TJ would end his Phillies career. The Danny Tartabull signing just looked a little better.

Frankly I guess you could say Alvarez too, though he was maybe not a lock

Career’s not over but it’s going to be a struggle to get back on a 40 here or somewhere else.

Pleased at what they did, I didn’t want any trades where they’d give up major prospects.

Was hoping the Phillies could grab another cheapy starter to replace Velazquez but I guess they won’t.
