Great move by the Phils
- Giroux_Is_God

Yeah, great add. Their bench was leaving a ton to be desired at the plate. Now they have some real options to work with. Cabrera rakes at CBP too. And he is a switch hitter to boot I believe?

Will be interesting to see if they still try to go after Curtis Granderson for additional bench depth. I can't imagine he'd cost very much.

If Brayden Schenn was a baseball team he'd totally be the Mets.

He probably reacted by getting up in the bullpen

Hadn’t used in years either, but last year I was making fun of my buddy’s old style phone, and called it a bobo phone! Guess ya have to be at least 40 to remember that term.😂

Kapanen is NHL ready now and has more upside than he has shown on the deep Toronto team, plus he could help our PK. Liljegren is insurance. He is almost as far along in development as Myers, and we really need a RHD top 4 guy to pan out. Two chances are better than one.

don't worry we aren't trading any of our good players for your trash

Haven’t read much about that specific Tavares crowd in here. Much of the debate was if the flyers should even have interest in him, most fans in here I believe would have passed on him but apparently the flyers disagreed with that

probably the usual delusional crowd like Glak18 MJL and jmatchett321

He rakes righties in general. Could see him platooning with Kingery/Franco.

Quinn got the call too. Talk about a weapon off the bench. Quinn promoted too

I like the move. Opens up a spot on the 40 man roster next year and they got a solid offensive piece that they can slot at multiple positions.

6 years for Tom Wilson. Cap hit isn't terrible but the years seems a little excessive. Then again he's only 24.

I think a big reason why they won is because of him. He’s basically a superinaldo. But this deal was far more than I thought he’d be getting. Wait til the fancy boys see this one
