Phillies Offseason Thread 12-13

[PhillyPhreak54]

Decision day on Betancourt to see if he makes the roster per Salisbury. He said the Yank and Cards have been looking into him.

Maybe they can get a long reliever for him.

Or maybe His Smugness would like to trade him for...nothing?

[MDS]

or maybe who cares? because....wait for it...ITS YUTIENKSY BETANCOURT

[PhillyPhreak54]

You're right.

They cut him.

Maybe the Marlins will sign him to go along with Polanco, Dobbs and Valdez

[Don Ho]

Thank god for the Marlins.  Only thing that's going to keep these bums out of the cellar.

[MDS]

galvis, who has one of the worst approaches to hitting ever, is going to get 4 at bats per week in the majots instead of 30 in AAA

brilliant

[Rome]

I think Galvis is going to get more AB's than that and that's probably a bad thing.

[PhillyPhreak54]

John Lannan

12 runs

4 innings

Good signing, Smuggy Bear.

[Don Ho]

So Doc's excuse is exhaustion.  What's Lannan's?  Hypothermia?

[MDS]

ok so laanan, the 5th starter, getting rocked in a pretend game = amaro sucks
doc getting rocked in several pretend games and not hitting 90 = ?

homer ho

[Don Ho]

I'm having a hard time with the realization this team may not win 80 games.

[Sgt PSN]

I should have really pressured Jay in putting some money on the Phils winning 90+.  Too late for that now I suppose. 

[BigEd76]

Today's lineup has Galvis starting in left and he was playing right yesterday, so I guess he's taking the Michael Martinez role of being everyone's backup

[MDS]

easy give me your phillies prediction for this year

[BigEd76]

85-77, 2nd place, dunno if they get a wildcard

[MDS]

so the phillies are winning more games than the braves?
