2009 Phillies Offseason Thread

[Sgt PSN]

so the phils went to consecutive ws winning 1, won 3 straight division titles, have the best all around pitcher in baseball, have all star caliber players at nearly every starting position and they are the 24th best run organization in baseball?  i'm not saying they should be number 1 or anything, but that kind of success should def put you in the top 10, probably even top 5.

i get that and know that it's not just the major league aspect that he's evaluating, but look at the talent that the phils have on the field that came from their own farm system.  look at the talent in their farm system.  and look at the finished product on the field. 

like i said, i don't expect the phils to be #1 but given their success at the pro level and the fact that the core of the team is constructed primarily from home-grown talent, there's no way they can be ranked that freaking low.

lol, i have no idea how you jumped to that conclusion.  i knew who the hell he was although i'll admit i'm not overly familiar with his work.  however, if that's his assessment of the phillies as a whole, then i have to say that he does, in fact, suck.  because he does.  hard.

Remember Steve Smith, the 3B coach that got everyone thrown out at home by 10 feet?  He's on the next Amazing Race with his daughter

[Sgt PSN]

i was actually trying to forget him.  was going pretty well for me until you came along.  ass.

Keith Law is a flaming icehole.  He probably knows what he's talking about but anyone who follows anything related to the minor league system knows who he is and his sparkling personality.  He and Neyer are made for each other.

[ice grillin you]

pretty much all seamheads are unbelievable douchebags

[Rome]

he also hates phillies fans with a passion.
