2017/2018 Phillies Off-Season Thread

[Rome]

Lolol.  That was an all-time moon shot right there. 

A+++

[PhillyPhreak54]

hes mike pence and sabr is a gay bakery

Lmaooooooo

[MDS]

i love buck. hes a winner. but like i said before when he didnt bring in britton last year that did it for me. he cannot be trusted. you can get him to agree to following analytics and such but its his call when to bring in a relief pitcher or when to pull a starter. and that will destroy me.

[ice grillin you]

at least they aren't hiring ron gardenhire

gabe kaplan linked to the phils manager job

smart forward thinking liberal progressive jew. remind you of anyone?

[Rome]

Sarah Silverman?

[MDS]

even if kaplan was a neanderthal baseball fan like j i would still want him for his liberalness. he probably wont be on the front lines calling trump a fascist but just knowing hes on the right team warms my heart.

[smeags]

queue the welcome back kotter theme.

[MDS]

i was jewing him up so much i called him kaplan

its kapler.

[Geowhizzer]

As long as Vinnie Barbarino isn't the third base coach, I'm IN.

Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports that the Phillies are "zeroing in" on Triple-A manager Dusty Wathan to take over as the big club's manager.

[SD]

Nice resume but I'd rather they select someone outside the organization. A Manager with major league experience to groom a young team.

[Sgt PSN]

I dunno...a triple a manager for a triple a franchise seems about right.

[MDS]

managers dont groom players...they manage personalities and make decisions. dusty isnt going to have time to sit with jp crawford and go over his swing in the batting cages.

everyone seems to like him so what the heck. his key hire will be pitching coach.
