Phillies Offseason Thread

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I hate Papelbon. I have no rational reason. I hope he D's in a F.

[PhillyGirl]

Papelpon is younger. Not older, Munson.

[Munson]

For some reason I thought he was 31 before Madson was.

[Rome]

Budgets are for Romes. 

[MDS]

yea thats a lot of money for papelboner

whatever. they are spending money like the red sox and yankees so if this doesnt work its not the end of the world.

[ice grillin you]

is this team trying to suck more?

[MDS]

i dont really see a massive difference between papelboner and madson...in fact papelboner is probably better.

the lineup is still going to be horrendous though

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

You're right. Their lack of interest in your boy CoCo is the problem.

nothing wrong with a guy who will steal 50 bases for a team that cant score runs

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Will he even be on base 50 times this season?

[Rome]

The more I read the reactions of Boston fans over this the more I love it.

I'm worried about how Papelbon finished the season.  Not that he blew the last game, but how he lost velocity at the end of the year.  They'd better go over that shoulder and elbow with the proverbial fine-toothed comb.

plus just his overall makeup is suspect....hes a shell of himself and to give a guy like that four years (no closer should get four years) is ridiculous

phillies love stockpiling awful contracts apparently....wheres pat gillick when you need him

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

How long before the home crowd starts chanting at him derisively?
