February 19, 20242 yr Apparently they replaced the out of town scoreboard in right field with a giant LED screen

February 20, 20242 yr The acquisition of Dave Cash was the catalyst of the team's resurgence in 1974. That was the first year in a decade where they didn't outright suck. Good player.

Either lauber or gelb talked about Yamamoto saying because he was 25 and they trusted the analytics they were willing to pay him that type of contract and still go sign wheeler. My personal feeling is and has been for a couple months that Zach Wheeler and the Phillies would both like to have him going forward. But I don’t think the Phillies want to pay him the years he wants. I think they’d give him 40 million a year. But I think they give him 40 million for 3 years with a team option for a fourth. I think he wants five years and $40 million per. I think that’s why they’d be in Jordan Montgomery if he became available for the right price on a three and maybe a 4 year contract. I think it gives them some flexibility that if they can’t get Wheeler done that they at least have Montgomery, Nola, Suarez, and painter in 2025.
February 20, 20242 yr That’s fine if you’re gonna make a bigger move at the deadline. However, you’re gonna have to give up prospects in order to do that. With the guys who are available in free agency right now, you might be better off just paying those guys and keeping your prospects. Like I’m not so sure you’re gonna get a better player at the deadline then Jordan Montgomery, and if you do you’re gonna have to likely give up somebody like Crawford and Abel to do it.
February 20, 20242 yr That's what I've been saying all along. I'm not wasting payroll flexibility on guys like Snell or Bellinger

I'm not wasting payroll flexibility on guys like Snell or Bellinger You do realize you might get to the deadline and get players not as good and only rentals and have to give up prospects. There’s that scenario that exists. It’s why I’ve said if you get Montgomery on a 3-4 year deal like they did with Castellanos you get him on a good contract and don’t have to give up any prospects. Flexibility is nice but you also have to realize at the deadline you are dealing away prospects and new playoff format not as many sellers. A chance you get similar or worse players and trade guys in the farm system
