I can’t imagine the return will matter much but seems like a vote of confidence in Moniak , no?

UPDATE - 11:07 a.m.

 

Jim Salisbury of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports that the Phillies are acquiring right-handed pitcher McKinley Moore from the White Sox.   Moore was a 14th round pick from the 2019 draft.  

 

Prime Time Sports Talk describes Moore:

 

While the talented right-hander is not projected to make his MLB debut until 2023, his future is bright. He has a fastball that tops out in the high nineties and a slider that can be a plus pitch. When the 2022 season does begin, Moore will be looking to improve his consistency as he moves closer to the majors.

You’d be surprised I don’t trust this bullpen and Nola sucks now

I’m concerned with the starting rotation, to start the season.  Doesn’t appear like they’re getting a lot of work and in a shortened spring to begin with.  Bullpen is going to be tested, early.

There is virtually no SP depth in AAA or AA behind the 5 man rotation. Phillies will be in a world of hurt if a long term injury pops up in their rotation.

Heyooooo

 

 

Ive been saying this.   I knew his arm was going to be an issue. He probably needs Tommy John

Dodgers just traded for Kimbrel

I think he's on the decline, as well

Whats the floor and ceiling for this team?

Floor - 90 wins?

Ceiling - NLCS?

It’s Stress fracture of his scapula. Gonna be out at least 2-3 months. And that’s if it heals properly and fast.

Predict the total # of homeruns by those five - I say 165

Likely it’ll be somewhere between what we both said - last year they hit 145 between them.  I was counting on more out of JT and Schwarber this year

I hope you’re wrong :lol: 

I hope im wrong also.  But averaging over 30 each.... If they do that it's going to be awesome to watch.
