Phillies traded both Pence and Victorino and the best prospects they got were Tommy Joseph, Seth Rosin and Ethan Martin???? LOL
i really hope raj gets fired sooner rather than later. probably one of the worst gms in baseball.

you know i really really hate to say it but phillies need more then a roster adjustment, they need to adjust this management and coaching staff
manuel should have without a doubt been fired the day after the cards knocked us out of the playoffs, he was absolutely embarrassed in that series by la russa, and should have turned in a letter of resignation that night, i would have..
RAJ i dont thnk realizes that we are not the yankees and buying all of our product is FUCKING US in the long run, hes made more then a few questionable trades, 1 that many people dont realize was a huge one was trading wilson valdez for nothing to the reds...
he then trades our top player this year pence for a scrub ass bench outfielder, catching and first base prospect that will never see time with the phillies because of current prospects and and a pitcher i cant even speak on cuz i dont know shit about him
how do these trades make us better?
He wasn't trying to improve the team. He was straight up looking to dump salary because pence would prob make around 15m in arb and vic is a FA after this year.
