    I read that. I'd say the trade worked out for both teams.

    Actually Gose was traded to Houston then flipped to the Jays. Travis D'Arnaud is a big time prospect that went as well.

    Gonna have to go up from the $130, I would imagine. If that's a first offer though, I'd say they are in the ballpark but I would imagine will have to add at $10 mil to that.

    So weird how they are handling this...gave blank checks to players like Howard and Papelbon and are playing hardball with their most important piece.

    Yeah I don't get it. :?

    Funny they're talking about trading for d'Arnaud. :lol:

    Don't think I mentioned this but I think it's asinine they didn't sign their 2nd rounder; agree with Fixer on that one.

    Makes no sense at all. I'd say 6-141 gets it done, thats 23.5 a year. Lee got a 5yr deal and he's 32 or 33. Yet a 28yr old there playing hard ball with :roll:

    I'd guess that that offer has a good chance at getting it done, unless he is completely set on seeing what he can get. He could definitelyl get $150+ but he also definitely likes playing for the Phillies.

    If there offering 6yrs he's staying. The money was never the issue,it was always the years. We first offered 4yrs i read. Thats when they came back with 7yrs. 6 gets it done imo.

    in fairness, cliff lee did go 8 innings...so you basically just used your normal 7, 8 and 9th pithcers....no biggie.

    they are fucking pathetic

    I don't understand why the fuck diekman is on the extreme left side of the rubber while facing RHBs

    This team pisses me off. No intesity and stupdity running rampant throughout the organization. Let's give a fucking closer (who is known to struggle pitching 3 consecutive days or more than 1 inning at a time), the largest contract EVER for a RP. Even as the best pitcher to ever come through their system, who has already carried them to one WS title, is approaching free agency while still in his prime. Brilliant...fucking brilliant.

    Watch the game on Saturday. I'll be the guy sitting on the LF foul line wearing a paper bag on my head which reads 'FIRE AMARO'

    Mayberry should have caught the HR too. Uncoordinated 7 foot turd

    OK, I'm done

    Yeah,Travis D'Arnaud was one of the players i read the Phillies should target if we traded Hamels.

    Well, he's been out with a knee injury so I'm sure amaro will target him. His rep is that he's going to have trouble staying healthy.

    The trade that's going to haunt this team is pence. Singleton is gonna be a monster.

    all over a 180K difference. seriously

    they fucked up their draft budget. If they matched rash's demands for the additional 180K then they would have surrendered their first round pick next year (because it would have put them over the draft cap in the new cba).

    so annoying. ineptitude at its finest

    I'm back in the writing game which means I need distractions....who do you want less when your whole teams midseason dreams depend on it Paps or K-Rod? At least Ricky Weeks is over the Mendooooooooza line for once in his god damn life.

    hamels will sign and lee gets traded to texas, probably in the same day. write it down

    and 6 years is too many years for a pitcher

    I'd be fine with that. And 6yrs isn't too many at all for Hamels.

    It is (for any pitcher, or player for that matter), but it's better than watching him pitch for the Yankees or Dodgers. The open market will deliver him at least a 6 year deal, so that's what we're looking at.

    Why's everybody trading Lee? Are we writing off 2013 already, even though we're trying to extend Hamels? Doesn't make sense to me.

    2013 Phillies = Wheeze Kids II
