    Let the Phillies fire sale begin. I would love Hamels.

    ...I saw that the Yanx tried to get Rollins before they got Gregorius, but Philly wanted either Judge or ...hell, I can't remember the other player...but Cash said no thanx.

    Tho' Rollins had a better Fldg. Pctg last year @ .988, than in 012 when he won his Gold Glove @ .978, I don't have a very good feeling about letting go of one fk off, for another. Rollins Runs Scored, is becoming pitiful....another banner year for the Bums without a Quality SS.....NTM, Rollins is 36 years old, and I doubt will improve upon his anemic lifetime B'Avg.....

    Tho' the Bums have 2 outstanding Minor Lg. Prospects within a year or two of coming up, for SS and CF. the Bums will stink up the field again.

    Also was reported Rollins would not wave his no trade clause.

    Ahhh I was not aware of that....brings in a new slant/angle....I for one don't want to have to watch him play for the Bums, and I don't think Rollins will bring value to any team, period, do you?

    Looking forward to seeing Rollins slap Puig around in the dugout.

    Now that would be worth paying to see.....Hanley just joined in Puigs school boy fracas, playing in the dugout.

    I'd of loved to of seen the 1st ever MLB Player sitting in the corner of the DugOut with a Dunce hat on; and nose in the corner....:lol:

    Thanks Rick for pointing out the link I missed, which you supplied, can I blame it on old age, and onset of blindness?

    I get the Haren part of a trade, tho' sounds like Dan wants to stay in this warm weathered shit hole called L.A.

    However Gordon I just don't get. Mattingly numerous times this last year, and the last half of 013, went out of his way to point out how hard Dee had worked on his game, both offensively and defensively, when he was sent back down to the Minors. Honestly Gordon was praised twice as much as any other player, including Kershaw last year by Donnie....But then everyone expects Kershaw to play like a superhuman....

    I'd be flat out shocked if the Bums let Gordon go. If they did, I really doubt Matts will stick around after his contract, he likes Gordon that much, enough to want to try to build an Infield around the Youngster, with the Thunder Alley positions in full check, ie, Gonzo and Uribe...

    Yeah moving Gordon who led the league in SBs last season & excelled nicely in his 1st full season would also surprise me.
