    they should have the secret service escort him there
    otherwise he's liable to pull a muscle driving

    Yeah, we still haven't addressed the bullpen. Really hoping we can add 2 solid relief pitchers.

    Joel Peralta, Juan Nicasio, Adam Liberatore, Chris Hatcher and Mike Bolsinger all were added to the 40 man roster. Not saying they are the answer but they were brought here for a reason.

    Just not sure how much of an impact they'll have outside of Peralta who doesn't give me too much confidence. It is nice to have the depth though.

    it's been addressed..just not with a proven guy for the back end.

    Papelbon is a major douche, but i don't really mind douchey relievers..most of them are weird anyway. it kinda serves them. they sit on their ass in the bullpen all game, away from everybody else, and just douche around. Lol

    they still haven't announced the Rollins' deal..maybe they can find a 3rd team to take Ethier/cash and forward another prospect to Philly for Papelbon? Papelbon is still really good.

    Papelbon would NOT accept being a second fiddle to Kenley.

    you're probably right
    and he's still an effective closer
    39 saves on a bad philly team, he closed out more than half of their victories
    pretty sure his ego wouldn't allow him to take a subservient relief role and, tbh, i don't blame him
    still... the thought of playing for a contender might change things
    but i doubt it

    edit: oh yeah, and he's a douche

    Good one.

    Doesn't matter what they do. They could make it workable for a ten year old but he would still make everything about his job as difficult as possible.

    well the ride to the division title should be smoother this year..less peaks and valleys if the back end of the rotation holds up. that's all i can ask for being that the post season is a " crap shoot "

    Is the 40 man roster full before Anderson? Wilson and League are occupying critical 25 man roster space?
