Steve 17 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Maybe Trout would like to get out of a sinking ship. Now I am fully aware his skills have dropped off a bit, but you can't say he wouldn't be a good addition to the team. So you are Dombrowski and just got orders to try to make a deal. Who ya sending to them to bring this guy home ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who ya sending to them to bring this guy home ? He has a rare back problem that isn't getting better anytime soon. So yeah that sounds like the perfect time to bring him home lol. I say this because that's the Philly thing to do, bring in injured players with their career winding down 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The injury is similar to a joint injury. It is not severe but it may ( or may not ) flare up again in the future. Difference being now he knows how to recognize it and docs know how to treat it. His numbers are down this year because of this and the fact there is only one other bat in the lineup that pitchers have to contend with. Trout is a generational talent that I would gladly take on our team even for 120 games a season ...... right now in center and eventually to a corner of spot or first. Still cant figure out beyond Hoskins who I would move for him. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd absolutely take him. That would just be the Phillies luck though if it got worse after trading for him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did my flat Earth research before I posted this topic. Trout would be a great draw for the team aside from being a quality addition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That poor guy, 25 home runs and only 53 rbis to show for it. It's a shame for a player like that to be stuck on a team like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve 17 Posted August 24, 2022 Author Share Posted August 24, 2022 So I looked over the entire farm system....... these 3 are no gos Painter Abel Rickardo Perez --- catcher After that...... I would listen on any other minors player In the majors ? I would think anyone except for Bohm, Stott, Nola, Wheeler, and Harper. Obviously nothing has been said about such a move.....but I think they should start trying to figure it out....... hell.... involve a 3rd team if needed.

xzmattzx Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 I'll resurrect this thread so not all baseball is in the Phillies thread. But this thread needs a name change to something general and ongoing. Anyway, with Bochy winning a pennant with the Rangers in his first year, I think he was solidified his ticket to Cooperstown. He went to the World Series with San Diego in 1998, was not fired from San Diego but was allowed to interview for other jobs because their GM thought he was too old, then won three World Series with the Giants, and now is in another World Series with Texas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xzmattzx Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Bruce Bochy is a clear Hall of Famer now. Won the World Series with the Rangers and the Giants. Won a pennant with the Padres as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vsptroops Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 Too bad the Phillies didn't hire Bochy instead of Thomson when they fired Girardi. I firmly believe we win the World Series either last year or this year with him at the helm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
