Good read. I know there was talk of trying to get Jon Gray too via trade who is listed as a potential Cole 2.0 as well.

Seems like a good happy medium between shopping at Bergdorf Goodman or Kohl's, with the possible upside of the former.

Twins were among several teams to go big on Wheeler — 5 years — but he told them he preferred to stay on the East Coast

Can't really blame Zack for wanting to stay on the east coast with his NJ girlfriend taking her insta private and all.

McDaniel had him at 4/68

Bowden had him at 4/74

These guys are usually pretty good, this time they weren’t in the ballpark

Those are ridiculous, to be honest. They undersell how good Wheeler has been
I know what you're asking yourself and the answer is yes. I have a nick name for my penis. Its called the Octagon, but I also nick named my testes - my left one is James Westfall and my right one is Doctor Kenneth Noisewater.

Zack Wheeler has no no-trade clause. But he gets a suite on the road and 4 premium seats. Plus, there’s the $118M. #phils
