Another awesome thing.

No one really bought into the Phillies as third team thing.

Then today, bam, it happens. With Halladay, it took a few days to finalize. This happened basically in less than 24 hours.

Rube is honing his craft.

Seriously. 12 hours ago #mysteryteam was about to become the Twitter meme of the week.

And now, it's done. I'm still in shock.

It's just sick if two of Colvin/Cosart/May pan out.

Totally stunned that Phils signed Cliff Lee. Never saw this coming. I'm guessing ownership stepped up and decided to up payroll.


he didnt see it coming. shocking.

LOL, Randy Miller. Is he a real sportswriter? Better yet, a real person?

2 months later this still gets me. Please show me that when I'm dying in a hospital somewhere to get one final laugh.


I want to quote it too.

"Alright, we're here to announce today the signing of Cliff Lee. Uh, basically, Cliff expressed an interest in coming back, we were interested, and things kind of went from there. I'm also one of the top general managers of all time, and you can all suck it." *Groin thrust*, walks out.

I now feel like a dick concerning all non-Cliff Lee tweets like this one:

mlbtraderumors MLB Trade Rumors
Cardinals Reach Agreement With Gerald Laird http://bit.ly/hDiDQx #mlb


Should say "Cardinals Reach Agreement with Geral... awww, who fuck-ing cares. CLIFF LEE BACK TO PHILLIES!!!!!!!"

Look at the massive fellow behind him that is demonstratively yelling "FUCK YOU" at apparently no one.

Now Yanks' to poffer was $148M, not $153 as originally reported.

I'm telling you, by the time of the Lee-to-Phils presser, the Yanks will have offered this "mediocre" starter 3/$24.
