***The Official Philadelphia Phillies 2012 Thread***

Solid article put up on FanGraphs about the catcher prospect we got for Thome. It was more than a bag of balls, so it was a nice trade in my eyes...

uh oh is Cliff Lee gonna win his first game of the season today??????

"WAR - what is it good for, absolutely nothing". don't hear the stat geeks using that around here anymore huh? they've all abandoned ship. just another stat they loved to use against Ryan. guess he means more than some stupid made up stat

Chooch for MVP!!!

It's hilarious when you contradict yourself - actually ironic. WAR means absolutley nothing yet your slurping Ruiz when he's 7th in the Majors in the stat. Nope, doesn't mean anything at all.

But he's 41st in RBI and 42nd in Home Runs, so he actually sucks.

I am pretty certain he just proved everyone's point for us while actually trying to do the opposite.

My WAR machine for ironic idiocy says he leads the league in the stat.

did i say chooch should be up for MVP because of his fucking WAR? nope i didn't. nice try though.

a catcher with a shitty offense around him leading the league in hitting is why not because of some made up stat. try again.

Cliffy did i ever say rbi and home runs were the ONLY important thing? nope never did. just like the other guy above nice try though.

maybe the bandwagon fans don't see how good chooch has been since they are too busy selling tickets and 'being done with this team' like the same guys do after every eagles loss

[eeriepadave]

if we can hang on and beat Dickey and the Mets I would be pleasantly surprised

[Ledbetterman10]

Now THAT was an ugly-ass way to lose.
