    7:49pm: The Phillies are close to acquiring Pence, tweets Rosenthal.  He says a deal is expected to be completed tonight.  Jon Paul Morosi tweets that first baseman Jonathan Singleton and righty Jarred Cosart are in the deal.  Rosenthal says the Astros will also get two players to be named later in the deal, and they are not major prospects.

    Sounds like a good deal esp with Giants giving up a big prospect for a 2 month rental.

    a prospect is just a prospect until they do something. my gut tells me we will not regret giving up wheeler. pitchers who bloom and stick are a rare breed. could be wrong, I'm just thinking not. Giants have had plenty of pitching prospects who never did shit.

    is it being greedy and unreasonable if I still want them to trade for a couple of bullpen arms?
