There are a lot worse alternatives, especially if Rube can get him for a reasonable deal. Even if we get Upton, there are still major question marks in the OF corners.

I think they'll sign Myers instead of Madson... Madson probably still is gonna look to close before settling for setup

The highest salary Cody Ross has ever received was $6.3MM. Last year he played for $3MM. He's never had more than a 1-year deal. If those are anywhere near what he'd sign for in Philly, Rube should definitely go for it.

I wanted Keppinger for the last three years. Excellent utility infielder. Get er done.

A search for Clyde Milan turns up nothing, so I'm assuming the updated comps on b-r for our present and recently departed Phils hasn't been noted yet:

Ryan Howard=Mark Mcgwire (finally shaking off Richie Sexson, not to mention Jim Gentile)

Chase Utley=Joe Gordon

Jimmy Rollins=Alan Trammell

Placido Polanco=Julio Franco (somehow doubt Plucky's career trend will be similar from here on , though)

Carlos Ruiz=Bo Diaz

Juan Pierre= Clyde %&*#@ Milan

Shane Victorino=Steve Finley

Hunter Pence=Aubrey Huff

Cole Hamels=John Candelaria

Cliff Lee=Denny Neagle

Roy Halladay=Tim Hudson

Jonathan Papelbon=Trevor Hoffman

Kyle Kendrick=Joe Blanton!
