  1. I forgot Beeler was even still in the system. Pries was just depth. I had higher hopes for Skulina and Martinez though.
  2. I bet no one on the team reads it. Because they all hate him.
  3. I wonder who is heading to the DL Duensing.
  4. Jersey for the :flythew:
  5. AL East: Sox Central: Indians West: Rangers WC: Orioles, Tigers NL East: Nats Central: duh West: Dodgers WC: Giants, Pirates Playoffs: Who cares, Cubs win. MVP AL: Trout NL: Bryant Cy Young AL: Kluber NL: Hendricks ROY AL: Moncada NL: Almora (lol why not)
  6. The book came in today. It looks really nice. The lineup card in the beginning is a cool touch. Also got it signed by Verducci. Looking forward to reading it.
  7. Yup, I'm friends with their beat writer for mlb.com. He tweeted this: [tweet] [/tweet]
  8. We returned Caleb Smith to the Yankees.
  9. lol LaTroy Hawkins. At least they remembered Jon Lieber. Also Speier is either Chris Speier or Justin Speier and both were barely on the team.....
  10. lol LaTroy Hawkins. At least they remembered Jon Lieber.
  11. Good guess on Asher. The O's got him for a PTBNL today. Wouldn't have minded that at all, assuming the PTBNL isn't going to be much, since the O's have a horrific system. Yeah, not surprised. The O's don't have much of a system but their rotation is pieced together with tape, so I'm sure he has a good shot at getting starts there. Again, they still have Pivetta, Lively, Appel, Efflin and Thompson as their starting 5 in AAA, along with Adam Morgan and some interesting arms in AA, so that's still a situation I wouldn't mind keeping an eye on.
  12. Went from starting Game 1 of the World Series to unable to make the freaking Phillies roster in 4 months. I mean, he's had a really weird year going back to ST last year. Was gonna have a big role going into the season. Then gets surprise-traded to the A's because we surprise-signed Fowler. Then he has a god-awful first half, gets traded back to the Cubs, somehow starts Game 1 of the WS and now this.
  13. [tweet]https://twitter.com/CarrieMuskat/status/846756133977014272[/tweet] Womp womp. I suspect he'll be back at some point.
  14. Going off of that, a Phillies beat writer breaks down their 25 man roster and concludes someone probably has to go: http://www.phillyvoice.com/phillies-opening-day-roster-projection-final-version/ Alec Asher still has 2 options remaining. Thoughts on him and potentially buying low on Appel?
  15. Both got fewer than 200 at bats last year and part of that had to do with Schwarber going down and Fowler missing some time. It really does say a lot about our depth that both guys would barely see the field and could be starters on other teams. That La Stella can only play 2B and 3B hurts, but Szczur is also more replaceable. That said, what happens if Rizzo needs Szczur's bats?
  16. Rizzo did an interview with Uproxx http://uproxx.com/sports/anthony-rizzo-chicago-cubs-interview-mlb-the-show/5/
  17. Obviously they want to get Anderson some starts in while he's healthy and then flip him to a contender during the season. /2013 post
  18. Soooo...... https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2017/03/mariners-option-dan-vogelbach-to-triple-a.html
  19. I'm still a big fan of the quality depth the Phillies have in the upper minors. Most aren't on the same level as those guys but it's a situation to keep an eye on.
  20. That's a shame. Still had hopes to see him get a callup this year/in September.
  21. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2017/03/straight-from-the-heart-the-signing-of-ted-lilly.html MLBTR has a piece on the background of the Ted Lilly signing 11 years ago.
  22. I really like Sxczur (and it also feels like he's been in the organization forever) but without options and guys like Rademacher and Andreoli in Iowa, it makes sense that he'd be a goner.
  23. I can take Titans (if dew hasn't called dibs) and/or Vikings if we make it to 2+ rounds,
  24. To be fair, he was aiming for the second baseman.
