If Joe is anything more than a #5 next year, Rube's ain't doing his job. And if Drabek does get off to a hot start in AAA, we should not hesitate to call him up in 2010 and move Blanton to the pen. |

|
| | | | | 95470.2 in reply to 95470.1 | |
| Agreed. He had a decent WS last season and that's about it. He should not be starting on a WS roster. |

| If you can only bring back one of joe, pedro, or brett, who do you want? |
| |
|
| | | | | 95470.5 in reply to 95470.1 | |
| blanton is better than that, he has performed well under pressure and is a solid additon o the phil's rotation. |

| Moyer needs to be home taking care of his 7 kids. |
| |
|
| | | | | 95470.7 in reply to 95470.4 | |
| Brett. He'll be healthy for the first time since 2007 and he'll have something to prove. Pedro's been great, but there's no need to milk that cow any longer. |

| On the Yankees, Blanton would be an innings eater. We need to raise our standards. |
| |
|
| | | | | 95470.9 in reply to 95470.8 | |
| So we raise our standards by keeping Brett and letting Joe go???????? Sorry don't see that one. For 3 months Joe pitched as well as Lee, CC and Santana. I would hardly call him just an innings eater. He is also only 30. Take away his first 2 months and his states are right up there with some of the best., |

| His career numbers are average. Patty. He should be our 5th starter next season. I like the guy because he's so low maintenance though. |
| |
|
| | | | | 95470.11 in reply to 95470.8 | |
| if so , we need to raise the payroll. I think a rotation next year of lee, hamels, blanton, happ and pedro/drabek/kendrick/moyer would be pretty good, but I'd like to skip moyer, he gets hammered too often. |
| |
|
| | | | | 95470.12 in reply to 95470.9 | |
| I would bring back myers as a 7th inning guy/backup closer but only for a major pay cut. |
| |
|
| | | | | 95470.13 in reply to 95470.11 | |
| Is that rotation good enough to shut down the Yankees? It hasn't been so far this season, so we might want to upgrade. |
| |
|
| | | | | 95470.14 in reply to 95470.9 | |
A healthy Myers could be a very good SP, worthy of starting in the postseason against quality teams like the Yankees. Blanton had about as good a season as he'll ever have and he was still out of his league against the Yankees. |

Ii think this rotation would shut down the yankees 1. bob gibson in his prime 2. steve carlton in his prime 3. pedro martinez in his prime 4. sandy koufax in his prime Bullpen set up mike marshall randy johnson lefty specialist bruce suter eric gagne on roids and closer mariani rivera realistically, the phils staff is pretty good if hamels pitches up to snuff. |

| Somone's gonna offer Pedro a 2 year deal, and we'll be smart enough to not mathc it. |
| |
|
| | | | | 95470.17 in reply to 95470.16 | |
| you're probably right. Pedro can probably only pitch 150 inning a year but he had had some real effective starts. I really want to bring park back, but only as a reliever. |
| |
|
| | | | | 95470.19 in reply to 95470.14 | |
| I agree that health is the big question mark right now with Myers. His velocity has been down a while and even his nasty curve has deserted him. But if healthy and in the right mindset I would like him back at a reduced salary. |
| |
|
| | | | | 95470.20 in reply to 95470.19 | |
| Myers's upside is too high to not give him a chance. |
