Phillies Offseason Thread

[ice grillin you]

We all know the real reason was LaRussa.

this particular series was very much because of larussa...just in that the way he has his team play is the worst possible match up for the phillies and how chuckles manages his team...larussa is a jedi master and chuckles is the karate kid

but in general i dont think it would have mattered who the phillies went against....they just were never winning the world series this year

He's exactly 9 months younger than Manuel. Conspiracy?

sickening....after a gag job like that and more specifically a series like he had shouldnt there at minimum be a one week moratorium on tweets

Other than imitating Ronnie Brown on that one play, Vic didn't have a bad series.  Hit over .300, scored twice, knocked in 2 and didn't have a k.  Wasn't necessarily great, but wasn't terrible either.

He must have meant the motor scooter.  Oh, poor Shane.

phifer and oswalt sucked in the playoffs....

Hey. Oswalt only threw two bad pitches, they accounted for 4 runs but it was only two bad pitches. He'll tell you.

broad stats dont tell the real story for him in that series.....if you remember he got most all his numbers in the game one blowout

No player in baseball disguises his laziness better than the flyin' hawaiian.

He got about half of them in game 1, but still picked up a few hits during the rest of the series. I'm just saying is the guy wasn't an albatross at the plate like most others were.

he was awful lazy and didnt seem to care and his tweet shows it.....if you are gonna tweet within two weeks of that disgrace then it better be an apology for losing.....otherwise shut the farg up and go away

I am still pissed at his rolling into second standing up when he hit that ball down the right field line that kind of bounced around the corner. He's supposedly the fastest guy on the team and in that kind of game he needs to be at third.

He lands at third with 1 out, ibanez doesn't get those high breaking pitches to pop out, he gets something lower to drive. Game 5 was over right there because he was lazy.

[ice grillin you]

hes always been a jughead but ever since they won the world series his enthusiasm and care factor has gone away...and yeah hes gotten just plain lazy and just kind of wings it out there and whatever happens happens

the Phils hired Orioles Dir of Amateur Scouting Joe Jordan to replace Chuck LaMar.  He also worked for the late-90s/early-00s Expos and had 2 years w/ the Marlins
