yeah, but if they get Victorino or Pagan, they'd have a bunch of options to mix and match based on the scenario

I mean I hope they get Hambone

Not enough payroll for that.

swisher makes a lot of sense. I could see them liking him.

Eh, the current OF is Ruf/Nix-Mayberry-Brown. Schierholtz is a very useful player. They're letting a good player go for nothing on a team whose best OF is now Domonic Brown.

I think Shierholtz's big problem with wanting to get out of SF was not getting enough playing time. I imagine what this move means is that he's not in their long-term plans to be an everyday player (cause we're signing hambone and reanimating mickey mantle) and want to let him catch on with a team with which he'll get a chance to play urrday

Ready for a signing.

Swisher would fill the "productive player that I think is an awful person" void that's been there since Werth left.

Where's Napalm? I need him to give the board a "sissy'd." The market is lining up well for Rube.

still amazing to me that Ibanez turned down millions so we could get that draft pick. genuinely a good dude

This move stinks. Shierholtz is better than Nix. Release or trade Nix, eat money. Is $2m gonna break us?
This is why 2 year deals to generic roll players like Nix are always a bad idea.
Hope Joseph is our catcher next year because the Pence deal just got a lot worse.

they're both not great, and im glad we won't have to end up paying 4 million or so for the two players, and i'd rather have Shierholtz too

They both blow. What's the difference.

Haha remember when we gave Nix a two-year ML deal even though he had a minor league deal the year before and literally no one wanted him

pence deal would've been a win if nothing came back.

we're never going to sign anyone and we'll be lucky to win 20 games.

Phillies have offered four years to Pagan, as have the Giants

We offered 5/55 to Upton per RealKen

Pagan, 31, enjoyed a terrific all-around season for the Giants, and was particularly effective after moving to the leadoff spot in early August. The Phillies need a leadoff man, and Pagan offers additional appeal as a switch-hitter.

Have I missed something?

I'd probably throw up if we gave Pagan 4 years
