Buster Olney ‏@Buster_ESPN 13m

PHI has made clear to other teams, as it did during the summer, that it is very willing to move Jimmy Rollins. Has a no-trade clause, tho.

We're willing to trade literally every untradeable player we have. Huh
you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

Just wondering when Buster had anything right about something that mattered.

...and a huge contract and declining skills.

Other than that, he's perfect.

Kinda pisses me off that the White Sox - who are almost like a perfect comp for the Phillies (old, declining, overpaid) but have much fewer assets in $$$ and talent than the Phillies - have managed to completely reshape their roster this offseason by adding Abreu, Adam Eaton, Avisail Garcia, and Matt Davidson for very little. We just got older.

We never made the playoffs with Abreu and signing Eaton was a disaster so I don't know what the holy hell you talking about.

One of the few positives from this offseason is that nobody can say there weren't other readily available options out there. Amaro just decided to take the wrong options.
