Players are taking pay cuts to play in the great city of Philadelphia. Lee took at least 30million less. We got Halladay for 4 years 60million(best pitcher in baseball). The Phillies wanna win and players see that.
and when was the last time the Padres won the World Series? I get it, you're jealous, it's cool, jealousy is a natural emotion to have when someone else gets what you want.
the Phils have a great pitching staff, one of the best ever, but that doesnt mean shit. they have to be on a roll at the end of the year to win it all and last year that didnt happen to the phillies/reds or anyone, but the Giants. If the Phillies can stay healthy and heat up at the end of the year like in 2008 they'll win it all with ease, but the staying healthy part is what concerns me. Supposedly rollins, polanco, and utley all had successful surgeries and are ready to go. The team can have all the talent in the world, but thay need that spark like the Giants had. I think you could have put together an allstar team with the best players in baseball and the giants would have whooped them last year, they were just hot. The Phillies did really help their chances cause they werent spankked by the Giants, they just lost by a run or 2 every game. On paper the Phils have the best team going into the season. and Lee has been one of the best postseason pitchers in as long as I can remember. Can't wait Phillies 2011 champs!
However what I'm trying to point out to you is the phillies are buying up the big name pitchers like the Yankees do. And spending ridiculous amounts to do so. Yes yes I know I know he went to the phillies for less but that still a fuck ton more than 90% of teams can spend. By me relating them to the Yankees you say I am just jealous because they are buying up good players so that tells me with your way of thinking you are jealous of the Yankees because they do the same thing and you hate them.
You tryin to be a hero fool? You wanna see badass mother fucker?! I'll show ya a badass!!!
