There's zero chance of us landing Willis. No way the Marlins ship him here and if they did we'd have to part ways with a combination of Utley/Howard/Hammels/Floyd. No way Gillick ships Howard off after he traded Thome. The Marlins are trying to cut payroll so they're not going to take an Abreu or Burrell.

Don't shatter my dreams, ass.

It's fun to ponder in imaginery land but someone needed to bring you guys back to reality.

SD you know that about as much as I know what its like to have a penis.

You are aware of what the Marlins are doing right now, so how you can say that makes no sense whatsoever.

Because he's only 23, is dominant, and most important, is cheap.

1. Hamels had a recurrance of his back trouble and it is now supposedly going to affect him throughout his career.

2. The Phils, per the Inky and DN, are "trying like crazy" to trade David Bell and might have to pick up some of the $4.5M.

3. There are heated talks with the Dodgers where the Phils would get either Derek Lowe or Brad Penny or BOTH in a blockbuster type deal involving Abreu, David Bell and others.

4. Gillick said he has a major trade on the table and maybe a smaller one as well.

Hopefully we get some news today.

Oh, and there's this;

The Phils are still in heavy man-love with that loser Kip Wells and might send the Buccos Cop Killa for him. WHAT DO THEY SEE IN THAT NO GOOD PIECE OF TRASH PITCHER?!?!?!?

They are also interested in Mark Redman.

hunt

penny is doing alyssa milano so that would be a good deal, imo.
lemonade was a popular drink and it still is

Has she boned Dontrelle and Josh Beckett yet? Maybe Beckett had a little Milano-Tweeden sammich action goin on.

She's been nailed by Pavano and Penny. Must've been moving from hotel room to hotel room in Miami a few years ago.

We should make a move on Conine, just so he can't kick our ass anymore. I hate that old bastich.
Alert, alert. Look well at the rainbow. The fish will be running very soon.

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.

PoopyfaceMcGee

It's sad that I care about this off-season, but I do.  What's wrong with me!?! Why can't I just chalk this team up to the bunch of underachieving losers they are and move on my merry way?

MDS

Because you have a secret man-crush on Pat Gillick. Duh.

Maybe, but it's not as strong as your's on Bell and Lieby.

MDS

Shhh. They are so awsome, they need to stay. Mikey is so worth the 8+ mil he gets.
