Phillies daily links: 12/12/18

Free agency has finally arrived and surprise surprise, it’s the Phillies who have opened the market. You know what this is all about, so let’s go to the links!

Here at The Good Phight:

• We’ve got you covered with the McCutchen news.
• I looked at what a J.T. Realmuto trade would look like and if it would actually be enough for the Marlins to accept it.

Other Phillies news:

• What else do you think happened with this team? Here are some links from ESPN...
• ...from Fangraphs...
• ...from Matt Breen...
• ...from Corey Seidman...
• ... and from CBS Sports.
• It’s been a busy day, but this is Phillies news. Jayson Stark is headed to Hall of Fame not to cover it, but to be enshrined himself. A well deserved award from the guy who many of us grew up on here in Philadelphia. And Jayson, if you’re reading this, yes - that means you’re old.

MLB esoterica:

• Rumors? We got rumors! The big one we are all waiting for between the Yankees, Mets and Marlins is at all kinds of stages of being done. As of now, it looks like it’s not happening.
• The Orioles have a manager! No they don’t!
• The White Sox added a pitcher, getting Ivan Nova from the Pirates.
• Wilson Ramos might have a new home.
• Billy Hamilton does.

It’s gonna get more fun today, folks. I know it. Until next time...
