ninjapirate Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Also i think part of the fan backlash to the criticism is the mid season rankings dropped just as it seemed like J.P. was finally coming out of his slump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you on that. In the end, the rankings are more of a guide than anything else. They're generally accurate, but you really can't take them as gospel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjapirate Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 yeah they aren't the end all be all. I don't care how highly any scouting service thinks of him at any random point in a season. I just hope he can be part of the next best phillies team and be a positive contributor. Not like we are going to consider trading him so his value to the world doesn't really matter.

ninjapirate Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Assuming the phillies don't spend on any bigger name FAs for position players. Please sign relievers and darvish if you do spend. Let's call our starters next year 1B Hoskins 2B Kingery SS Crawford 3B Franco C Alfaro/Knapp LF Williams CF Herrerra RF Altherr What is the batting order for those guys?

Danger Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I honestly have no faith in Franco at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninjapirate Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Mills is a pretty good lottery ticket for Kendrick. Also We trade hellickson to the orioles just waiting on details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleavinger looks like he could be a LOOGY in the majors sooner than not, and we actually kind of didn't have anyone to be that guy so good get for hellickson.

ninjapirate Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 I wonder why the Phils are collecting international money I don't think we had gone over. Must have some kid about to turn 16 they like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm interested in seeing who gets the extra spot on the 25-man with these two moves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many days does ricardo pinto have until he can come back? like 5 still? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danger Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 (edited) So with Hellickson leaving what's our rotation looking like? Do we bring up Lively or Eflin? Man I just watched highlights from last night's game... Our stadium looks depressingly empty. Edited July 29, 2017 by Danger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
