    I'd offer him a 2yr deal worth 7 a yr with a team option. I'd include bonuses what could make each year max out at 10. 3yrs 45 is insane, were did you see that?

    Probably right, but imo that's all i'd go. I would love Utley to retire a Phillie though.

    My season ticket holder survey 'comments'


    I am disgusted with what Ruben Amaro has done to this team. He stays, I go (as a season ticket holder). Simple as that.

    Until this team embraces advanced statistics and better ways of player evaluation, they will continue to fade into irrelevance. Get rid of amaro.

    Besides the money, why would Utley want to stay here for this mess? Surely he can get close to what the Phillies will offer somewhere else.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    dude, I said same exact thing last night. I'd run and hide from anything amaro is involved in...unless it's a poker game since that would be easy money

    Looks like Cliff might be available.


    According to Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports, Cuban right-hander Miguel Alfredo Gonzalez has agreed to a six-year deal with the Phillies worth more than $50 million.
    The Dodgers were believed to be the favorites to land Gonzalez, until a report earlier in the week that they were no longer pursuing him. It's a nice addition for the Phillies who land a potential top of the rotation starter. The 26-year-old right-hander is believed to be nearly major league ready, so he shouldn't require much minor league seasoning

    I know nothing about the guy, but that is a massive fucking contract

    A little over 8 a year isn't a massive deal. I don't know much about him either, except they say he's a #2 or #3.

    Ah, yeah, a cuban who hasnt thrown professionally in a year gettinf $50 mil isnt massive? Okay. Scouting reports all over, could be good, could be terrible. He got more than cespedes or puig, that alone makes it massive. It's a huge fucking contract.

    It's good money don't get me wrong. But 8 a yr for a guy with possibly #2 stuff isn't alot. Hell Joe Blanton made 8 and was a 4/5. This could turn out very good or bad, time will tell. I just like that the Phillies actually got a big time International player for one.

    Like I said, I don't know anything about him, just read scouting reports. Interesting move.

    seriously. amaro is such a turd. lot of money to give a guy who hasn't pitched in two years. This move better mean they are trading lee and/or kendrick.
