2012 - Philadelphia Phillies, At Least Cole is Staying

[Sgt PSN]

It's not officially the offseason but unofficially it is:

I like Bourn, and if he were 5 years younger I'd be all over him. But he's 30, averages over 100 strike outs a game, and has a low OBP. His speed is still decent but that's going to decline every year after the age of 30. Not to mention he's represented by Boras. Just don't see him as a good signing. This team needs to go younger and take a step back. I have the feeling someone is going to overpay for him big time.

that gotta be some kind of record for strikeouts

And at bats.

Everyone is so high on Bourne, I'm glad SD brought up the strike outs per season.  The dude K's a lot and he would drive us crazy.  He is going to make a boat load of dough and some team is going to regret it.  He's a nice fit in Atlanta right now as he is surrounded by some pretty darn good bats but his weakness would stick out like a sore thumb on the Phils.

If they sign Bourn they will have officially become the Washington taterskins of MLB.

NO.

[SunMo]

people who have seen him exactly zero times are definitely in a position to judge dom brown.

Antonio basticho is now in die in a fire territory. That fargin guy sucks.

[MDS]

for some reason he is still in fantasy team

maybe because i forgot. maybe because this league is totally gay and has holds.

maybe both?

His fall was fast and hard.  He is beyond awful. 

This Lindblom cat is looking like a swell pickup.  Buddy of mine who is a Doyer fan said buckle up with Lindblom as he gives up a shtein load of long balls.

Victorino put up a thank you Philadelphia billboard. Cool

Saw that on 700level.  But they don't know where he put it.  Dumbass probably has it sitting along the 405 or something. 

[Munson]

That's 8 home runs in 34 games for Chase....rumors of his demise greatly exaggerated?

[Don Ho]

Doc throws a gem when it means absolutely nothing.

He farging crushed that thing.  Funny how TMac kind of hesitated on the call as it was clearly obvious that the ball was long gone.
