Only 10 days until spring training games start.

Also good luck to the Phillies again this year.

This thread wont last long Cubs be out of contention by 7th inning of 3rd game ! LOL

Got a feeling a goat will be involved in this as well.

Craig Counsell still the manager?
Condolences

I know Corky.

I want to enjoy the Super Bowl a little longer before jumping into baseball. I will turn 80 in March so I may not have too many more seasons left in me. Before I pass on I would really like to see the Phillies win a World Series and Penn State win a National Championship in Football. If by some miracle the Phillies and Penn State could pull it off this year it would make my day.

One of my customers is a major sponsor of the cubs. Last year they took us to the opener in AZ. This year I am too busy with work to go.....

That's a shame. I bet you'd have a good time.

Adc not wishing the cards any luck! Lol

Just wondering if the cubs are going to pursue Bregman or not… is Shaw going to be the third baseman or not??
I think we have a really good shot at getting the division … if our starters show up and stay healthy … and getting a quality closer is a step in the right direction.
Getting tucker was a delightful surprise

Because we need it!!! Lol no moves but prospects through the off season, got rid of veterans. No moves to help the starting rotation, was told no way anymore the Youngs guys get a chance unless a worthless old fogie get hurt. What's the point of getting young guys if you won't use them or give them a chance??

I never liked Bregman but I could grow to like him if he lived up to expectations, but he wants too much and Cubs aren't offering what he wants.

Too bad Bellinger couldn't live up to his hype last season, now he's a Yankee.

Sounds like Cubs with Hendricks. He was basically done years ago, but they kept him on for nostalgia I guess. Wish him luck with the Angels.

Stole my post lol go cards !!

I disagree with ADC on the Cubs, however, his hatred of the Cardinals is well deserved. Go Brewers.

My expectations for the Phillies isn't as high as the past few years. They had a great first half of a season last year and then played only 500 ball after the All Star break. Then got taken out of the playoffs in the first round by the Mets. The NL East is going to be a toss up this year as the Braves will start off the year healthily, the Mets made a good run last year and the Phillies. I think Nola is past his peak prime and Wheeler might be too, Not sure they have the relief pitching needed to be a top contender. They will need Turner and Harper to have big years and they need their core players to be healthy the entire year.

There's a trade rumor the Phillies may be looking at Mike Trout, NL. That seems like good news for them.

That would be great news ADC!
