Damn....so its Michael Bourn or bust?

[SunMo]

or Pineapple head

[PhillyPhreak54]

Yeah I forgot about him...screw it - bring him back. I read Boston was hot on his trail though.

Read the Twins want Blanton and Royals want Brett Myers

Signing Bourn Hamilton or Swisher takes away the 1st round pick 16th overall according to Gelb

Bring Braindeadorino back

[Don Ho]

Only so you and I can rip his ass at every bungled move he makes.

Oh jesus christ....hell to me would be being forced to read that and Wheels' book while listening to continuous loops of TMac calling games.

Smugly McSmuggerson was on DNL and no commented interest in Hamilton and seemed non-interested on bringing back me and Don's boy Shaner

got to give him credit, its a terrible market and hes not jumping the gun....yet

theres still time to gut this worthless team and start the plan for 2014. chooch the roidhead can be traded now, they can easily ship lee out and no one would care, by then itll be justifiable to trade utley and doc since they are both free agents after 2013.

then trade jimmy or move him to 3rd...go with galvis and cesar hernandez up the middle....ride out a horrible 2013 and feast on this FA class http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2012/02/2014-mlb-free-agents.html

i just fear they are going to do nothing, then try and sell "utley and howard are back" and play that out. then come july when they within 5 or 6 of the second wildcard rube wont gut it because of tv ratings and ticket sales. so theyll of course miss the playoffs and doc, utley, etc. will walk and they wont get anything. farg you rube.

Being a baseball GM isn't in your future, my friend. Ain't no gutting needed.

give me a reasonable plan for them to win the world series this year. like who do they sign, trade for, etc. to get them a roster good enough to win a world series.

go.

GET MCCANN!  The thought of him in a Phils uniform hitting in the driving range of CBP makes me happy.
