    And in the world of hilarity - Fixer, I genuinely hope the Phils sign Vizquel.....for my sake....actually, no, for your sake.

    amaro really is omar minaya reincarnated. I am on board with vizquel if it means the end of valdez though

    hamels relationship with the philly fans is perplexing. most tried to run him out of town after the 09 season (a year removed from him carrying the phils to a WS title). the apex of this was hamels being booed off the mound during his first start of the year last year (a complete embarrassment). now everyone loves him and wants him to sign a long term contract to stay here.

    I think you know where I'm going with this...so I digress

    Isn't it strange that Phils fans are bitter about 3 straight non-championship seasons while Yankees fans are still celebrating 2009 2 years later. :?

    Eh, just busting a little balls, as you guys would be doing had you won.

    I am fine with last year for the Yankees after they lost out on Lee and I am also fine going into the season with the rotation they have and not winning next year, if it means not overpaying and giving up a stacked farm for a second tier pitcher.

    amaro's theory is...if it's broke don't fix it.

    brilliant

    I don't post things to try to piss people off (even my posts that prove ryan howard sucks). My posts are attempts at enlightenment. People will come around and realize I'm right as usual

    He would have played LF. Couldn't have been worse than Ibanez. Would have been nice to have a switch hitter with pop off the bench too.

    Then again, you're the one that called lee a power pitcher

    sure.

    oswalt starting game 4 was the right decision...charlie manuel is a good manager...

    you actually don't have many opinions other than you hate closers.

    phils have offered david purcey an invite to spring training as a non-roster player.

    we are now up to 2 decent offseason moves. unfortunately none involve the 40 man roster

    Sure I do.
    -Cliff Lee pitched well in Game 2 but was squeezed after Larussa bitched about the correct strike zone Carpenter was getting.
    -I will still take the Howard contract at this point over the Pujols contract. They are both AIDS, but the Poops is more AIDS.
    -I hate Papelbohn. Think that signing will blow up.
    -Sweeney was underutilized in the 2010 playoffs.
    -I thought the 2011 Phillies would struggle to win the division, like you. Obviously I was wrong.

    Also, RF rapes LF.
