    Now hearing Papelbon's deal with Phillies will include a vesting option. If exercised, would make total package worth more than $60 million.

    2008 or 2009 Brad Lidge? I'm betting on a 2009-like version. :sick:

    The Phils and Papelbon have reached agreement sources tell CSNPhilly.com. Pending physical.

    That's awful. What a terrible sports week.

    What a terrible sports autumn.

    Amaro is a fucking moron.

    yeah, for a season would be great. unfortunately there are 3 MAYBE 4 more years after that.

    I'm getting hammered tonight. I can't take this shit. I'm gonna wipe my ass with my phils ticket invoice before I mail it in

    Here are the questions I have for amaro....

    1 - why so many years??

    2 - if you're going to overpay for a closer (which I disagree with on premise alone), why not choose the better player, which is madson?

    3 - What teams were you competing against for papelbon?? (an amaro staple is overpaying for aging players, even when there is no competition to raise said players value...see polanco, ibanez, howard, lidge)

    4 - do you expect papelbon's performance to improve over his last few years or do you just love overpaying for dimishing returns on your investments?

    5 - Didn't you go to stanford??

    I would have much rather have signed fringe closer types like nathan and/or broxton at half the cost.

    Someone pass the tequila my way

    Makes no sense at all imo. For once i agree completely with the fixer!!! I would have signed Madson the dude's gonna be real good for years. Plus Papplebons a fly ball pitcher and are porch isn't very deep.
    Go Birds!!!!
