If the point is to just get through the season.. bring up some AAA starters to get through the season.

Why not just use Asher or Aquino.  Unless the Orioles are trading a big contract, I don't like this one bit.  I want to know what the Phillies are getting.

I'm dying here. What did we give up. 

[Yardball85]

Just waiting to see we traded Hayes or Scott or Akin....

[Lucky_13]

Wonder if we have another deal lined for Britton or Brach and are trading a contract or something

Seth Smith is being pinch-hit for in the 9th inning. Has he been traded? Or just taking him out of an 8-2 game?

[eddie83]

Maybe it is for Ubaldo......

Can we at least all agree that Andy MacPhail is largely responsible for this team's "success" over the past five seasons? Most of the core players MacPhail acquired are either gone or have started to decline and these are the results that we get.

Macphail had nothing to do with Miguel Gonzalez and Wei yen Chen. Or Kevin Gausman, O'day, Pearce, McClouth, Cruz, Miller, Givens as a P, Davis, Trumbo, extending Jones.

I assume next to nothing. It's a salary dump on the phillies end. 

For us , we get hope that somehow we can get on a run and if we get rid of Britton  we don't take on too much in salary plus we get the 10 million back we'd be spending on Britton next year.

We all are this was a trade that came out of no where.

Rosenthal says deal will be announced as soon as game is over so you would think it's a major league.

Game is over

[ArtVanDelay]

Could it be Ubaldo for Hellickson straight up?  That would save the Phillies some money.

[backwardsk]

Hays and Mountcastle!....

 

 

 

 

 

 

...are guys I wouldn't trade.
