Congratulations on winning the 2011 NL East title. This truly is a first being eliminated in December.
I wonder if they had an understanding already. Maybe that's why it took longer than some thought. See what the market price is and if you guys are within range then I will go there. He may not have wanted to go to New York at all and who in their right mind would want to play in Texas. I think he liked Philly, but he just wanted to maximize his value through free agency instead of an extension. All that pressure felt by Hamels about being the man 2 years ago should completely be gone now. And best of all I get to see even less of Lidge now.
I thought that happened last week when we signed DJ Carrasco and Ronny Paulino. It must feel good to be a Phillies fan, huh?
