| Sorry, thought it would translate... but considering the circumstance of the Phillies a year ago today. First it was rumored he was on the trading block and now they have all but given up on him. He was unhittable at times last year. | |

Trading him was about freeing up money, not because of his performance. | |

Which is exactly where everyone projected them on the low-end. No one expected this total collapse. That being the point. | |
