The Birds and Phils are completely fucked right now. Thank god for the Morey signing and the Sixers.0

2. Upside is there's not much of a farm system for Dombrowski to drop an atomic bomb on?www.myspace.com0 -
They were never going to tear it down but his skill set to build does not mildly translate to the Phillies situation. I hate it. He guts farms, which they don’t have. Signs big names, which they can’t really afford according to them and even if they could are more than a couple players away and can’t build a bullpen which they need.This organization is lost0

Never good when the smart guys turn you down so you turn to the old guy0

I think bringing Dombrowski in tells me perhaps they've had a change of heart in spending department. I don't know why else they'd bring someone like him in if they were not trying to win now. And, yeah, the farm system isn't good anymore so they're only option is to spend, spend, spend. Step it up, Johnny Cigar.www.myspace.com0

And Middleton has not been resembling this 2nd coming of Steinbrenner so I'm not holding my breath.0 -

Oh my...first answer to the first question...what was the sales pitch?
My other job fell through.0 -
Ohhhhh now I like the idea of Fuld as GM. Doesn't make up for Dombrowski calling all the shots though.0
-
HA. That shitty annoying Rays outfielder for like 5 minutes is the Phillies GM? Didn't know he was still alive. Probably pretty smart though, cause he sucked at baseball.0

I'm two years older than the Phils GM. Fucking crazy. lolwww.myspace.com0

Well....actually I was 1 year older than the previous gm. hahah

Welp. They're at least talking to JT's agent. Better than not talking, I guess. At least the Mets are out of the running.www.myspace.com0

I bet they get him on a decent deal. Economics are so bad right now, whether they actually are or not, and no one likes paying big bucks for a catcher to begin with.Post edited by Cliffy6745 on0

Yeah, from the Gelb article I read they're basically doing the opposite of the Harper attempt - they can't build the pieces around the outside then get the main piece by showing the effort they put in to bring guys in. JT knows all this now, and they can't do anything until they do or do not sign him (the main piece).
This has always been my thing - I hate, hate, hate, hate paying or giving up anything for a catcher. I never liked the trade. But at this point that's beside the point. He's a beast. If they don't re-sign him then it was all for nothing.0 -
Hey merry Christmas ya filthy animals.0
