Schmidt and Zito are FAs.  Schilling has 1 yr left before retiring, and Willis is in arbitration with the Marlins for 2 more years...

Which means that Willis could be had for some youngins.

Gavin Floyd, come on down  :P

I don't think that the Marlins would give the Phils Bruce Willis, or even Willis Drummund for him.

I didn't see a FA list, but somebody mentioned to me that Jason Schmidt, Curt Schilling and Dontrelle Willis are all FAs. ?

I'd love a rotation of one of those 3, Myers, Hamels, Moyer, and Lieber as the 5th starter.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Yeah, that's just like the Phillies to go out and spend top dollar to sign the top 3 starters on the market.

Hoping for one of those three is pushing it.  Hoping for all three is downright ridonkulous.

no shtein dickwad, that's why I said one of those 3.

I tried to tell him Willis wasn't a FA yet, but he insisted he was.  Schmidt is #1 on my offseason addition wish list, and that includes any position.

Varsho, Bombard and Dancy have been canned.

Manuel retained.

I'm a little surprised about Varsho - I though he was supposed to be one of the "up and comers."

As for Dancy and Bombard - both are long termers.  I'm sure they'll be tucked in somewhere in the organization.  They always are.

Dancy was the one I expected. Varsho and Bombard I'm surprised over. But whatever. I figure they will bring in someone with NL managing expiereince, someone that can remind Charles to give players day off and double switch. 3rd base coach, hopefully someone with vision and depth perception. Haven't had since the pre-cancer John Vukovich.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Dancy not being there is a great thing.

I could do without him waving slow as farg players like Burrell around 3rd when there was no chance to score.
