De La Cruz is an interesting name to watch. 

I'd love to see Kevin Long work with him as he showed flashes of monster power last year. 

The guy is 6'8" and 210 

 

Dear lord, why can't they just let Kingery go? Enough of this guy already. A part of me thinks they are doing it to spite him because he didn't come close to living up to that contract, lol.

Hard pass on that contract

 

 

 

 

 

 

Utley finished a lot higher on his first ballot than a lot of recent inductees. 

I think that bodes well for him moving forward. 

Not so sure about Rollins 

 

 

Wow been 6 years already. JFC 

 

 

 

WTF????

I know there’s a lot of guys still out there in free agency, but the Phillies really need to make another move somewhere. Because I don’t think they can just run it back is going to get you to a title. It ultimately wasn’t good enough last year. It’s likely not good enough this year as the dodgers loaded up, dbacks have added Rodriguez, a nice bat at third and a bullpen arm. As well as the Braves have added as well.

I don’t know what the move they should make is, I still think their lineup has a problem. they don’t have enough guys who take pitches like Rhys would and grind at bats to wear down pitchers. They really could use better protection for bryce. Turner in front of him should be better this year. But Castellanos, realmuto, Bohm don’t really do it for me. I think you need more consistency. Realmuto a couple years ago could but i think he’s declining.  
 

Well we definitely aren’t doing anything now that eskin believes they are

 

This better be fake 

This looks like something you'd buy at Foreman Mills

Yeah that’s trash but expected. The city connect jerseys in general are awful 

It would have been better as a white jersey, but still trash. 

Who gets paid to come up with these designs? My god.

I knew they would be bad.  I was dreading our City Connect year.

Nike has the contract with the league to do this.  They had it written in so they could create new, "innovative" designs (read: sell more shtty sht).

 

Nike is also responsible for the swoosh on the front of jerseys instead of on the sleeves.  They said they would pay any price that the league said to be able to do that.
