    He is so fat

    A fat Ryan is a more productive Ryan. You are going to have to deal with it/him because he isn't going anywhere. Baseball's a game, enjoy it every once in a while.

    The earliest Dom Brown should be called up is after the deadline or when we are officially out of it. If there is still a chance and he's batting .200 and fielding like Pence then the crowd will be all over him.

    I guess this is the long expected "winning streak to tease us that the team may get back into the race, before collapsing in a couple weeks."

    Well said. His presence alone changes this teams look in a positive direction. But some guy wrote a story that he sucks,so it must be true.

    Love the guy, but the R6 doesn't have any chance vs. Kershaw at this point.

    Agreed. But its nice to see a lineup that actually gives u a chance. And yes Gose was in the doc trade.

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

    Better for you guys at this point. Drabek got another TJ this year, I think.

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

    Jon Heyman just tweeted the Phillies will go 6yrs for Hamels.

    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.
