    and Chase Utley made a throwing error on It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia (watch him throw the ball into the ground) although his facial expressions were hilarious.

    And it looks like Diaz was non-tendered. I'd have no problem with them picking him up. Solid fielder at all spots and I like that he goes the other way with the ball.

    plus he can help with crowd control when idiots run onto the field

    good info here, even though it is speculatory.

    I'd LOVE to see the phils sign aybar. I have a bad feeling that they are gonna end up with george sherrill, which I will not be happy about. My first preference for the LH reliever role is fuentes.

    I will personally burn down South Philly if Francouer comes here. Diaz. Get Diaz if you're gonna go that route.

    But seriously, Werth to the Nats? Love it. Enjoy a steady rise to mediocrity in the division, Jayson! :thumbup:

    He’s so not worth that kind of money, it’s absurd. And what happens opening day when there are 12,000 people in the stands. Werth already has a problem with keeping his head in the game, where is the motivation to go work every day when you have no shot at winning.

    I actually laughed when I heard about this. What a joke.

    The problem I see is that this is a 5-tool player contract. But there's no way he'll be a 5-tool player in 5 years.

    In a way, I'm just happy he didn't go to the Red Sox or something like that.

    I agree about francouer. if I had to make a list of MLB players that I wouldn't want to see in a phils uniform, he would probably be number 1 (zack duke would be in the top 5 as well :D ).

    JP, get the gas cans. I'll bring the matches.


    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    The Royals and Phillies have picked up the pace on free agent outfielder Jeff Francoeur, tweets ESPN's Jayson Stark. The Rockies are also in on Francoeur. All three suitors were already known from past reports.

    I think brown starts the year in AAA. I would love to see the phils trade for willingham, who is apparently available now that the nats have werth locked up.

    just please, please, please no francoeur (no idea how his name is spelled...too many vowels)

    further proof that this manager is a dumb ass

    phils showing interest in jerry hairston jr. I wouldn't mind him. He can pretty much play any position and he hits RH.

    hard to believe someone game Werth 7 years at 18 million. what a disaster. it would be stunning if he is still productive by year 7 of that. i can see 3 or 4 productive years then a sharp tail off. crazy that jason bey and jayson werth are making 18 million a year. at least it wasn't the yankees or red sox so i can take solace in that.
