So stupid I know it’s not his pitching hand but he’s likely out a month. Wonder if this persuades the A’s to keep him and look to deal him in the offseason. Frankly i think we get someone like finnegan and lane thomas. I’m not enthusiastic about Thomas because of the elbow issue with marsh. I think they need an everyday OF. I’d go in on arozerena. He’s killed it in the playoffs.
July 26, 20242 yr Mariners gave up their 12th and 24th best prospect according to mlb.com. Thats ridiculous if we didn’t try to beat that. Mariners have a top ranked farm system but smith is a fringe tier 2 prospect. And Hopkins is 3/4. I’m guessing the player to be named later is gonna be a good prospect otherwise i can’t imagine someone didn’t beat that offer
July 26, 20242 yr Is it me...or do the Phillies wait until the last second every year? Maybe it's just revisionist history and just feels that way? Why wait so long, we knew we need RH Outfield help for months......I know you need two to tango (meaning another team) but come on already!

Just saying amaro gave up more high end prospects than gillick did at the trade deadline. Amaro made trade deadline moves for Lee, pence and oswalt. Amaro might have failed after 2011 to trade guys off sooner after the run was over and not a good job rebuilding the farm system after dealing prospects. But really he went all in to give the Phillies chances to win a WS from 2009-2011. The big move he made during that time which was questionable was dealing Lee when acquiring halladay. He should’ve just kept Lee and if he walked in FA the next offseason so be it. He came back to Philly so was a good chance he’d have stayed and youd have gotten 2 prime years of halladay, Lee, Hamels and Oswalt
July 26, 20242 yr Package for Arozarena was pretty light. Phillies could have matched without giving up Painter, Miller or Crawford. We’ll see what DD does, but it sure looks like he Fed this one up.

Tbh our deadline under Dombrowski have been largely moves to sure up the 5th spot, a reliever, utility fielder and marsh who they expected to fix to become an everyday CF and he’s a platoon player. 2021: Gibson, crouse and Kennedy for Spencer Howard, Kevin Gowdy, and Josh Gessner. Freddy galvis for cash considerations 2022: Noah Syndergaard for moniak and Jadiel Sanchez marsh for Logan O’hoppe Sosa for Jojo Romero (Romero has become a really good reliever) Dave Robertson for Ben brown 2023: lorenzen for Hao-Yu Lee rodolfo Castro for Bailey falter

July 26, 20242 yr Umm why are we dealing Dominguez when we already have bullpen issues? there’s your marsh platoon. He hits LHP at .328 and RHP at .204. He has 3 HRs on the year…
July 26, 20242 yr 5 minutes ago, vikas83 said: Gotta think another reliever incoming Didn’t give up any prospects so makes me think they are gonna make two trades. Add in Dominguez going out you are down a BP arm and needed one prior to him going out

Add in Dominguez going out you are down a BP arm and needed one prior to him going out We'll have more BP arms with them going to a 4 man rotation in the playoffs. If they would happen to trade a for a frontline starter they could always move either Ranger or Sanchez to the pen too.

If they would happen to trade a for a frontline starter they could always move either Ranger or Sanchez to the pen too. I think the cost to get a front line starter is going to be too expensive. I could see a 4/5th starter like lorenzen and a BP. They frankly likely want to go to a 6 man rotation.

So never going to be a power hitter. But can get you 15-20 also add into this he has a year left of arbitration. So likely getting a marsh and Hayes platoon next year.

Pretty sure we have the whitest team in the majors
