Good man

Rube always asks the questions others are afraid to answer.

I like the Fields signing. Did we talk about trying to get him like 3 years ago?

He was one of our many can't-miss AAA 3B prospects of the future.

I know I picked an outlier, but that kind of thing happens all the time with relief pitchers. Joe Nathan and Jonathan Papelbon had great years, too, but they signed early and probably got more money than is necessary. I'm just saying, the bullpen is low on the list of priorities because there isn't a Papelbonesque stud on the market and when you're going after setup guys and middle relievers, it's more important to have depth than to be top-heavy. I'd rather focus on 3b and OF and try to get lucky on a late-offseason gamble.

2008 WFC video is on MLBN now. already into the WS game 1.

What in addition to Worley would we have to give them for either Myers or Moustakas?

Just in case people thought I was being sarcastic, I really did like the Fields signing.

Sign Hamilton, Upton, Swisher and Grienke!

For $6-7 billion, we can buy like a lot of players.

So the franchise is going to get like an 8 billion dollar tv deal? Fuck the luxury tax, sign em all

can comcast even afford 8 billion dollars?

They paid $14B for NBC.

nbc is a little bigger money make than the phillies broadcasting rights, no?

So now you're going to go and qualify your question? Sheesh.

You're the one that works for them

He's talking to me. I'm a lowly employee who is not privy to that information.
