Well we signed him under Rube's watch. And Moss. And Vogelsong? (or was that Gillicks last year?) Obviously the fact that we didn't, you know, KEEP them is something to hold against Rube, but identifying talented guys like that on cheap deals is something at least. Or maybe not. I honestly don't know


Oh wow. Vogelsong. Forgot about him. Had a 4.91 ERA for Lehigh Valley before we released him. Angels signed him next. Then the SF Giants.

Thanks Amaro.

you can offer a player with 20 years of service arbitration. if they decline they become free agents and if someone else signs them, and they are eligible, you receive compensation. had the phillies offered moyer arb and he accepted, then they'd have owed him whatever the arb number was. or they could have negotiated a deal in between then and come up with a compromise.

I feel like we've entered some sort of parallel universe.

You're wrong, but not for the reason you thought I was wrong and you know that now.

Any better?


I'm beginning to think Amaro should have been gone two years ago.
