Re: Phillies trade Placido Polanco
I think they could have gotten more, but maybe I'm wrong.

Re: Phillies trade Placido Polanco
What the hell do you think they'd get for Bell? He has no value.

Re: Phillies trade Placido Polanco
I guess Polanco was tradeable with Utley doing the job that he has been? I like it for the Phillies. Urbina and Wagner pitching the 8th and 9th is pretty nasty.

Re: Phillies trade Placido Polanco
OK, to elaborate on my initial thoughts, I'm surprised they couldn't find a deal with the Twins. He seems like he'd be a good fit there, and they have some power arms in the majors and the upper minors. I guess they wouldn't part with Crain.

Re: Phillies trade Placido Polanco
honestly, i dont know the twins well enough to comment, other than santana obviously
this is a nasty 8th and 9th inning combo. as long as we get our starter through the 6th, we're golden. rheal cormier or ryan madson(whos in his 2nd year and is ridiculous-NASTY changeup, for those of u who dont know) in the 7th and urbina in the 8th and wags to blow everyone away in the 9th with the way we've been hitting and the starting pitching we've been gettin-with the possible exception of lidle-we're in good shape. we needed this trade because the NL East is TOUGH AS HELL this year

Re: Phillies trade Placido Polanco
Nikcy Punto has a .351 OBP. They don't really need a second baseman....
