    That's sad, and I am obviously not even close to a Phillies fan.

    More trade news: the Phillies trade lefty reliever Antonio Bastardo to the Pirates in return for Joely Rodriguez, a 23-year-old starter who finished last season at Double-A.

    wow surprised Jimmy waived his no-trade clause. Wish him all the best. Going to miss him and going to be so strange not having him there at SS next year. Been so fucking long with him out there 150 times a year. Always thought he was a bit under appreciated around here. I think people will realize how good and durable he was really quickly next year. Hats off to ya Jimmy.

    One of the best vids ever. I was lucky to be at that game. Thought Randy Wolf was going to beat us. Thanks Jimmy.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    I feel like someone died.

    It's crazy to think that the dude has spent nearly half his life with this organization/living in this city.

    keith law approves of the trade-

    Despite rumors that the Phillies were paralyzed by the uncertainty in their front office above general manager Ruben Amaro, they did really well in this trade, acquiring two quality pitching prospects, although neither helps their major league rotation right away.

    Lefty Tom Windle sits 90-92 mph as a starter but has been up to 95-96 mph in shorter stints (e.g., in the instructional league), with a solid-average to slightly above-average changeup and fringe-average slider. He pitched well in a brutal environment in the California League and I like his chances to break out as a prospect in the much more reasonable Eastern League in 2015.

    Zach Eflin was flipped to the Phillies after he went to the Dodgers in the Matt Kemp trade; I'm a big fan of his potential, with his frame, his two above-average pitches and his aggressive, strike-throwing mentality. I saw Reading, the Phillies' Double-A affiliate, late this past summer, and they were virtually prospect-free, but with these two arms and perhaps Crawford on the roster, Reading will be a must-see team this season.

    Welp - looks like I'll hit up some Reading games again, like I did when Aumont, Brown, and Gillies were there.....and we all know how they've turned out...

    I can't knock this trade, though. Always a good idea to acquire a number of well-groomed pitching prospects because A) you never know which ones will pan out & B ) they're always good assets for future deals (provided they don't shit the bed, or get injured).
