Phillies offseason cont...

On the way back from the La Salle/Temple game, I got into a discussion with some idiot about Loserthal. I said he sucked, he said he was good. I mentioned how he couldn't call a game, his crappy defense, knack from grounding into double plays and overall pathetic batting average outside of the last month and a half. He said he hit well when it mattered (kinda) and his middle of the pack homer numbers among nl catchers.

I are bettar.

Phillies are gonna sign Alex Gonzalez. No, not the one who was on Florida. The other one. He's not really that good, but, he is a hell of a lot better than Tomas Perez. Perez is now all but done as a Phillie, and might I say, praise oh mighty Allah because Pieman just flat out sucks.

PoopyfaceMcGee · February 07, 2006, 08:35:47 AM

So, they'll have Alex S. Gonzalez and Abraham Nunez as their backup infielders?

World.

Series.

BigEd76 · February 07, 2006, 10:05:26 AM

and Matt Kata

Quick WBC note: Rollins and Myers won't be on the final USA team, but Utley will be the starting 2B and split time with Michael Young...

Good. Myers doesn't need to be pitching there.

the excitement building up to this season is almost unbearable.

PhillyPhreak54 · February 08, 2006, 08:03:40 AM

I'm excited. I love baseball.

And the Gonzalez signing was good. Another person to play 3rd.

SunMo · February 08, 2006, 08:34:03 AM

Pat Gillick continues to get the all-stars in here. Ryan Franklin, Abraham Nunez, Arthur Rhodes, Tom Gordon, Alex S. Gonzalez. You can't get much more average than that. But hey, at least Tomas Perez is history.

QuotePHILADELPHIA -- Not wanting to be outdone by the Red Sox, the Phillies agreed to terms with their own Alex Gonzalez on a one-year contract on Tuesday, a baseball source confirmed.

Mandel = poor man's Spadaro.

BTW: I'm also excited about baseball starting back up. I wish the Phillies had a better team but at least they're not awful.

Tell me where you're sitting so I can chuck batteries at you

I love baseball as well. Even if expectations for my team are low/mediocre, baseball season is always fun.

i bet there will be more yankees fans than sils fans at those games.

anyway...i don't love baseball...i like it though. it's a distant 3rd on my list of favorite sports behind football & basketball...especially since i can't get the yes network so i never get to watch any games.
