Re: 2024 Eagles Offseason Thread

What's taking so long to get rid of this coaching group? I don't think Sirianni goes. Lurie isn't going to do a complete 100 % teardown of the coaching staff just yet. Both Coordinators, QB coach and Defensive coaches will be gone. It's gonna take a few days for Lurie/Roseman/Sirianni to come up wi...

Re: The Phillies' 2023-2024 Offseason

Re: Trout

Trout and Castellanos are roughly the same age, maybe 6-7 months difference. Last 3 years Trout has averaged 79 games played, Casty 140. If Angel's want to move Trout they would have to take Casty in return. Casty is at 20 million and Trout 37, so offset by 17 million. If Angels want any of the abov...

Re: 2023 Phillies Discussion (Andrew Painter breaking news)

my recollection re painter was that an MRI showed no structural damage. if that was the case months ago, i don't believe they should have recommend TJ surgery at the time. the question is what happened since then. Despite the results of the MRI, Painter says he still feels discomfort. I think that'...

2023 Wall of Fame Scott Rolen Ruly Carpenter John Quinn I often go to the ceremony - this year will be a hard pass John Quinn was GM 50 + years ago. Took over a dismal Phil's franchise from the down years in the mid 50's. Made some decent trades to bring in Jim Bunning, Johnny Callison, Tony Taylor...

Re: The Official Unofficial 2023 Phillies Spring Training Thread

A's looking to dump 24-year-old CF Cristian Pache, once a top prospect. Phillies should see if they'll take a lottery ticket farmhand for him, then let him play everyday in CF at Triple-A. Not clear whether he'll hit, but he's a glove they can throw in CF in a pinch. .278 career minor league avg in...

Re: Eagles' 2023 Super Bowl LVII GDT: 02/12/23 Chiefs(14-3) v Eagles(14-3) - 6:30pm

Why can't we have nice things? Seriously. LOL, I've said uttered this same sentence numerous times. I go back to 1963 watching the 3 teams and '67 with the Flyers. Record in the finals since then Sixers 2-4 Eagles 1-3 Flyers 2-6 Phillies 2-4 7-17 in the finals. Grateful to have the Titles the teams...

Re: The Philadelphia Phillies 2022-2023 Off-Season Thread: Nov 6th, 2022

If you're going to sign a 1B, I want Jose Abreu on a 2/50 deal. But I hadn't gotten to that part of my vision yet! A) Wouldn't Rizzo be a chaeper option? B) Wouldn't a Hall/Realmuto/Veteran be a cheaper option? No thanks on Rizzo. We already have him in spades. Rizzo will turn 34 next season, has h...

Re: Triple Crown in 2022?

Not mentioned much, but there's a serious shot Paul Goldschmidt gets a triple crown this year. He's either 1st or 2nd in the categories that matter. This is something that's only been reached once since the 1960s - it's pretty big. I'd like to see him reach it - especially since many people thought...

Re: The Philadelphia Eagles 2022 Training Camp

' I think that Minshew is better than Brissett, but not sure from the Browns standpoint if it is worth the upgrade from their end However from the Eagles standpoint, as a team with playoff aspirations, you can't go into the season with Reid Sinnett as your backup. As we saw last year, Eagles can wi...
