For Phillies, hurdles to a Peavy deal | Philadelphia Inquirer


"That new Philadelphia park might be the worst in baseball," [Peavy] said. "Look at Shane Victorino. I love Vic to death. He's a great baseball player. He's got 11 or 12 homers [already]. He's not a 20-homer guy."

Don't hold your breath on this guy coming to Philly.

Don McKee still lurrvvves him, though.

IronPigs' Bastardo excited about opportunity -- themorningcall.com
I think I would have been surprised about the move back in April. But he's been so good this season that the move didn't really shock me once it was made.

I cannot imagine a more awful job.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves, it was the Nationals, and he did benefit greatly from a couple of tremendous defensive plays.

Inside the Phillies: Return to minors is best for Mayberry, Phillies | Philadelphia Inquirer
The guy probably needs some regular at-bats, he looked absolutely awful in that pinch at-bat over the weekend.

Has Moyer turned the corner?

Shane is not a 20 homer guy? Right, cause he has 4 so far. And he has hit 3 of them on the road. Sheesh.

For Who? My teammates.

For What? To Win.

How Much? Where do I sign?

Don’t discount the possibility of gamesmanship here, considering they’re about to face each other.

The quote is from 2007.

My bad for not reading the article, though Shane ended up with 12 that year.

WIP is giving Eskin an on-air partner? Sounds like they are getting desperate…

by doubleh on Jun 1, 2009 1:16 PM EDT reply actions  

Yeah…I have caught his show a few times in the last week and I am taking a lot of pleasure in listening to what sounds like an emasculated Eskin who is now facing the fact that he can’t call the shots and be a bigoted bully anymore.

I'm taking a collection...

Who wants to send him flowers?

Maybe there is such a thing as karma after all… (j/k)

Never too soon for that joke – i make it often and have ever since i heard the story

"Someone created the box score," Morey says, "and he should be shot."

Blocked shots — they look great, but unless you secure the ball afterward, you haven’t helped your team all that much.

Caught some of the show again today. It has gotten to the point where Eskin is audibly annoyed with his co-host.

by FuquaManuel on Jun 1, 2009 7:41 PM EDT up reply actions  

It doesn’t help that Rob Ellis is half retarded.

For Who? My teammates.

Only half? He sounds more like 4/7 to me.

by FuquaManuel on Jun 1, 2009 8:24 PM EDT up reply actions  

Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy (Eskin). He has to suffer with a partner who knows less than most of the callers he berates and he can’t do a thing about it.

Is it mean that I don’t feel sorry for him?

by doubleh on Jun 1, 2009 8:44 PM EDT up reply actions  

Why would anyone ever feel sorry for Howard Eskin – he makes way too much money being a douchebag and people praise him for it.

Plus he looks like the burger kng and wears those stupid coats…dude can’t have enough bad things happen to him as far as i’m concerned…even with a cohost he’s on the air paying far more than he should be making.

They must have worked hard to find a co host less informed than eskin
