I still hear criticism that they're too cheap to get this player or that player even though they're in the top 5 payrolls in the game.

That's because Middleton is sitting on those billions. The man has more money than Steinbrenner! Spend man, spend!!

Kurkijanasd was just on ESPN News and said the Angles have offered Saunders, Aybar, and 2 or 3 prospects. No thanks.

That may be what Toronto is putting out, to see if they can get the Phils to up their offer. Rube is too smart to fall for that old chestnut.

We could probably top that without giving up Drabek or Brown.

I did not realize that was old news. He was reporting it like it was very close to happening. I apologize.

As I alluded to earlier, I'm sure he has just as much work to do back home in terms of discussions with ownership as he does talking with people in Indy.
