    It's good he's back. He built that team for you with the trades. If I was the Mets, Braves, Nats of Dolphins I'd file tampering charges just to be a rod!

    his draft decisions are a huge reason we had a parade in 08 and part of the reason we have halladay now and and got lee the first time.

    plus lets not forget his help in getting pence here. :pimp2:

    Lidge signed with the Nationals today...lol.

    DawkinsINT Tebow free since 9/5/2015.

    He'll probably suck against most teams but dominate the Phils.

    the guy will always be a fan fav here but i wonder how he'll get treated sitting in the visiting bullpen ?

    My thoughts exactly...

    He'll probably get ribbed a lil bit. But he'll most likely get a cheer when introduced...no?

    He will Ward.

    Philly wont be swarming Nationals Park to boo him like we do with Werth.

    Lance Nix could be an underrated Lefty off the bench.

    I also like the Valdez trade for Jeremy Horst deal. We trade a declining 33 year old SS who didn't hit .250 last year for a 26 year old lefty reliever on the upswing with some promising numbers. Micheal Martinez to get more playing time this year.

    yeah no loss in moving valdez. unless of course the phils get into a long extra inning game and run out of pitchers.

    on lidge - i think he'll get a big applause when he comes out of the bullpen. the guy was a huge part of of this team's 2nd championship ever.

    Phillies sign Juan Pierre to a minor league deal.

    DawkinsINT Tebow free since 9/5/2015.

    I love the Pierre signing...assuming he's still got speed.
     
  15. 86WARD

    86WARD -

    Yeah. He was a sick burner in the base pads. Not sure what he is now...he was a phillies killer during his time with the Marlins.

    the man can still ball. hit .280 with a .329 OBP in 158 games last year.

    if he works out dont be surprised to see a victorino trade. my buddy and i were talking about victorino/worley for wright if we can sign him to an extention.

    I'd be sad to see Victorino go.
     
  18. DawkinsINT

    DawkinsINT Tebow free since 9/5/2015.

    I wouldn't want to see him leave either.

    Pence signed a one year, $10mil deal to avoid arbitration.

    i like shane too but i make that trade in a second. its a pipe dream though.


    good move getting pence signed. team is shaping up, the phils bench is gonna be badbutt.

    I don't want to see a Victorino trade anytime soon. I like the Pence signing but was interested in a longer contract.
