Phillies Season Thread 2013

110k would probably be acceptable if he's giving you at least 25-30 homers.  Still less than 1k per game.  27bb for the year would have to be some sort of record low for an everyday player though, wouldn't it?

Am I reading this right?  In 1997 he had 490 ABs (511 total plate appearances) and walked EIGHT farging times?  That's the same amount of times he got caught stealing.

superstar singles machine michael young to the bereavement list, cesar hernandez coming up.

within a month or two the infield needs to be asche-galvis-hernandez-choke*

*could be anyone really, they have nothing at 1B organizationally

What the hell, put in Ruf.

[MDS]

he needs to play too but at least for now hes an outfielder

nobody wants choke and they are stuck with him. though im not sure how they can ever have brown and ruf as corner outfielders--even if they both hit--and expect to get away with it.

I had a conversation that went like this at the game on Sunday:

Me: (to guy in Phillies gear) Hey Philly, who is Quintero?
Philly guy's girlfriend: George.
Me: George Quintero?
Girlfriend: No, my boyfriend is named George.
Me: Meh.

I forget how it ended but she sucked.

not that it would matter to the team this year if they brought him up....but ruff is horrid...he has no future in the franchise...and he definitely shouldnt replace choke....trust me you wont be happy watching him play

unless it was the outfield as a HOF ruff corner combo would be amazingly train wrecky to watch

[ice grillin you]

he needs to play too but at least for now hes an outfielder

in the majors he a 1b period....but theres no way you can bring him up and bench choke...no matter how bad choke is hes still way better than ruff and it would be a disgraceful slap in the face...if you wanna use ruff bring him up for road interleague for late inning matt stair specials and to give choke a breather....otherwise its the OF

Grit to the DL for 3 weeks. 

[ice grillin you]

he was already on the 15 day dl....charlie just said he would be out for another three weeks

i honestly dont care who's better

this team is going absolutely nowhere. you have a slew of mediocre to maybe halfway decent AAA players. bring em up and see what you got. what else is there to do? play ryan howard? oh good, every team needs a corpse.

[ice grillin you]

you dont know who ruff is but trust me he is hideous....hes more of a corpse than choke except the dont owe him any respect....you dont bench a former mvp world champion who is the best 1st basemen in your clubs history for a no position minor league stiff

[MDS]

is he better or worse than jason heyward, who is hitting .156 this year with a career .255 average

[Don Ho]

farging Revere is just a disaster in CF.  Shane was a littel bit stupid and a little bit of cockiness.  Revere is just plain zesty.

[SD]

Shane was an all around better player and it's not even close. I can't think of one aspect of Revere's game I'd take over Vics.

[Chameleon]

michael bourn ftw, that trade was the beginning of the end.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Dustin Pedroia is someone I'd like to punch. He seems like a little douchebag.
