Phillies Off-Season Thread

[Rome]

Quick everybody... Line up to argue with IGY about Rollins being the greatest EVER!

[SD]

Wish desean Jacksons personality was more like Rollins. Damn shame

[QB Eagles]

From that conference call the other day:

"I hope to accomplish a number of more things in whatever uniform I'm wearing. But my career and accomplishments and me becoming who I am all happened in one uniform."

[BigEd76]

Nobody knows who submitted the $5M bid that was accepted by Korea for SS Jung-Ho Kang, but the Phils might be the team that got it

[ice grillin you]

to clarify its 5 million to negotiate with him....not to sign him

also I was reading last week that he might not be a shortstop over here

[MDS]

yea he's 27 and he would be the 2B

they got money to play with and all the time in the world to figure shtein out.

[ice grillin you]

nats are probably the team anyway....they need a 2b bad

[MDS]

could be....but i want to see the phillies do something, anything, and i guess a korean infielder counts as that?

[PhillyPhreak54]

He will probably suck.

[ice grillin you]

yeah he sounds like garbage

[MDS]

distinct possibility

but what the hell, i mean really

[ice grillin you]

yeah what the hell since he will come cheap

sign six of him for all I care

[MDS]

thats why the tomas thing made 0 sense. sure he will suck, but what the hell?

the phillies have 2 players on their roster who MIGHT be a part of the team in 3 years -- asche and franco. they can take risks with random cubans and orientals.

The Phillies, meanwhile, have an embarrassing lack of outfield talent both on the big league roster and in their minor league system
