2010/11 Phillies Offseason Thread

Stark says:

-No way in hell the Phillies bring back Werth
-Very unlikely that they sign a "big" name like Magglio Ordonez, instead look for someone like Jeff Francoeur (if that)
-They are trying to re-sign Contreras and then primarily left-handed bullpen help

Go team.

Make the bullpen as impenetrable as possible...because I have a sinking feeling the offense won't be lightin' it up.

ex-Brave/Nat Pete Orr signed a minor league deal

Juan Samuel - 3B coach
Sam Perlozzo - 1B coach

That icehole Randy Miller is reporting that the Phils have made contact with Jermaine Dye and Dye has told folks that he would look good in pinstripes.

He was out of baseball for a year mainly because he priced himself out of a job. This would be a good signing.

[SD]

Dye is fine if they sign him to a one year deal. Just don't do a retarded 3 year deal like they did with Ibanez.

I was a big Dye fan but he's probably not an everyday player.  It wouldn't be bad, but it wouldn't be great either.  I'd like to see this team get younger, not older.  Like SD said, sign him to a 1 yr deal but add some incentives.  And he shouldn't be anything more than a platoon OF at this point.

is it 2006?

and does J have a crush on every single washed up player in sports?

Say what?

1. hes 36
2. he hit .251...2 years ago

[Sgt PSN]

This would be a good signing.

Obviously Phreak, you are using the language of love when talking about Dye.  It's perfectly natural though......McNabb is gone and you've got to fill the need for chocolate lovin' somewhere.

Thirty farging six?  He's almost as old as Rome and I.
WTF, maybe he'll go all Renteria and Uribe for us.

[PhillyPhreak54]

MDS - as a platoon player, dipshtein.

[MDS]

oh so an ibanez/dye platoon? because 2 washed up players = 1 good player?

[PhillyPhreak54]

I would rather have him than Francoeur

[charlie]

Why would you want either one?
