lol at giving a 35 year old reliever three and eighteen

it actually fits this teams profile perfectly....but its not going to end well at all

[ice grillin you]

just read its not a three year deal....its two with a non guaranteed third year...

this makes it tolerable

Per CSN's Jim Salisbury the Phils reach an agreement with LHP John Lannan pending a physical

meh

[Rome]

IGY... It's a good, safe signing at a decent price in an area where the Phillies were woefully short last year.  Stop your whining already.

allentown needs a #2 starter i guess

Ew. I hope this isn't the rotation replacement.

I think Jurrgens was worth the risk.  He was awful in 2012 but really quite excellent in 2011.  Weird game, I know...

[ice grillin you]

so jurrjens is going to have a comeback year but lindblom is done

in rubes mind and in the mind of homers who sleep in their red pajamas (rome, j, don, sd, sunny, etc.) adams is a pretty good move. it gives them an 8th inning guy, which they didnt have last year.

in reality its burning 12 mil on fire and casting it off to sea. not a huge deal, but kind of questionable nonetheless.

i cant repeat myself enough: they arent good, they dont have talent, they cant win. so any small move they make is a big giant whatever because at this point its just about waiting out the storm until choke, utley, lee, etc. all go away.

phillie homers may have over taken flyer homers

[PhillyPhreak54]

I read today they have picked up the pursuit of Cody Ross....ugh

[MDS]

phillie homers may have over taken flyer homers

its worse because flyer homers are just flyer homers. all the hockey they know is what they see on tv and hear on wip. they dont watch other hockey or talk other hockey or play hockey. so its almost pure ignorance more than anything.

aint that way with baseball. if it was just south jersey fans it be one thing but they got 95% of this board and all of those people remember adam eaton.

[ice grillin you]

truth

what it comes down to is baseball is such a gentlemanly sport with hard hat workmanlike guys people can relate to...and most importantly you dont have to share the team with negros...like you do if you ae an eagle or sixer fan...its "your" team
