    And I really wouldn't dismiss this Mike Young nonsense if he's in Texas still come mid-July. He'll I'd even say the beginning of the season if this team isn't producing runs. Texas apparently is willing to eat half of his salary, but wants top notch prospects. Wonder if they'd take one of Philly's A-ball highly touted prospects and Joe B. Cause as I see it, if Texas would be willing to pay half of his salary, he's still not a bad option to play left when Ibanez leaves after this season.

    yeah, I agree that this is something to watch. I gotta say that young doesn't excite me that much though. I think he's overrated. I'd be all for this if he only had one year on his deal instead of 3.

    I don't think I'd do colvin/cosart and blanton for young.

    At this point it's all speculation on how long utley is gonna be out. Hopefully he can get on the field soon.

    I should be in clearwater right now. Had to sell my tix for today and tomorrow. New job won out over Florida trip. Damn you maturity.

    Looks like it's done - Luis Castillo has agreed to sign with the Phillies, reports Jim Salisbury of CSNPhilly.com (Twitter links). Philadelphia offered the former Mets' second baseman a minor league contract according to Salisbury. Adam Rubin of ESPN New York first reported that Castillo was leaning towards joining the four-time defending NL East champs earlier tonight.

    Again, I'm not saying I'm slurping Castillo here, just saying it might be worth giving him a look. I've been pretty confident with the evaluators of this team - LaMar, Looper, Proefrock, Kerfeld, Wolever. They have a solid team in the player personnel department.

    So Pitt and 'Cuse out of 2/3 of my brackets.....and Cuse in the the championship in both of them.

    This is what I'm sayin'... " @Buster_ESPN As if we needed more confirmation: the Phillies' pursuit of Luis Castillo tells you just how much concern theyhave about Chase Utley."

    Castillo fucking blows - I'm booing every time he bats. Hope he trips down the dugout steps again.

    Big East also blows. :lol: I didn't pick any of those scrubs for my Final 4. :D The only Big East Sweet 16 teams beat other Big East teams to get there. :roll:

    Uh oh. Ibanez and Victorino collide in the outfield. Victorino's eye is bleeding and he looks concussed. Hope he's ok.

    :lol:

    I'm sure he's good. He was laughing it up in the dugout afterward. It just didn't look good in real time, or subsequent replays. That kid's a gamer.

    I hope this stupid experiment is over by this weekend. I'd rather see Mickey Morandini come out of retirement and play 2B.

    Did you see Matt Gelb's blog on philly.com where he said he expects the phils to carry 6 bench guys, meaning only 11 pitchers. Soooo dumb...especially if one of those bench guys is castillo. and another is mayberry.

    10 more days until the 2nd best day of the year (after thanksgiving)

    did the same thing to us at the start of spring training. you'd think he learn his lesson after the first time. he'll be playing in the atlantic league by next year. also i agree with with charlie 100%.
    Ron: I just don't feel like going out tonight
    Sammi: Wanna just break up?

    Oswalt hit below the ear by a Manny drive. Diagnosis: neck bruise, getting x-rays. When is spring training over? :roll:

    That's awesome. I don't really have much desire to see Tres Mtns, but that QOTSA show should be good.

    Definitely the first time I've felt like I will be missing something since I moved. Oh well.

    Last time QOTSA came for one night and I was at a softball tourney. 3 1/2 years ago. :evil:

    Psyched just to see Mike tonight, and the album is really awesome. You guys shouldn't miss out on at least checking the album out.

    Unfortunately, I will be laying low this weekend to keep money in my pocket for LCD Soundsystem in NYC Monday night, Opening Day on Friday, and a game on Sunday.
