06/07 Phillies Offseason Thread

If they take on most of Burrell's contract? Sure. Benetiz has some skills, but he's always hurt and is a fleshpophead. I wouldn't be opposed to simply buying out Benetiz. Either way, you save money this year and next year, and get that loser Patricia out of here.

get bonds

get bonds

Why not?  He'd be a perfect fit with the Philly media.

When I say "perfect fit", I mean that it would be entertainment for me.  So yes.  Get Bonds.

Jimmy got robbed again for a gold glove.

[mpmcgraw]

Jeter won the gold glove again, what a complete joke.

Omar Vizquel won't stop winning until he dies.

Stros and Dodgers both contacted Soriano's agent and the Indians have expressed interest in Sheffield.

Jimmy got robbed again for a gold glove.

Wah.

[SD_Eagle5]

I'll just throw this out there cause I'm bored: Marzano was talking about the ChiSox saying they really want Rowand back and that Freddy Garcia wants out. He makes $9 million per year and has a somewhat high ERA but he'd fill out this rotation nicely. Wonder if Rowand and say a scrub prospect like Floyd would get it done.

[MDS]

Doubtful, but Gillick would do it.

[Wingspan]

at least the fences at the ballpark wouldn't need maintenance

[BigEd76]

According to Zolecki in tomorrow's Inquirer, the Phils are interested in Joe Borowski (meh) and David Weathers (ugh)...

[SD_Eagle5]

Great, two 35-40 year old has beens to set up our 40 year old closer.

[ice grillin you]

borowski would be a decent insurance policy for when/if gordon goes down....they had big trouble this year with no plan b for the closer spot

[SD_Eagle5]

Is Rhodes still under contract? If not than I have no problem with Borowski. I'd pass on Weathers regardless.
