SOT Holy Crap the Phillies Got Cliff Lee- Best Starting 4 Pitchers Ever??

[oldjudge]

The Phillies have morphed into the Giants--their hitting is now questionable but they have a great pitching staff.

[David Atkatz]

Any day the Yankees don't get what they want is a very good day!

I'm am Phillies fan....however, I was really ticked off when they let Lee go in the first place. And, I feel that this mistake
prevented the Phillies from being in the World Series 3 consecutive years.

Now, that Lee is back in a Phillies uniform, more power to them.

Well, at least the Yankees didn't get shut out--they managed to sign an aging shortstop for twice what he would have been worth anywhere else!
Seriously, I agree with David--anytime the Yankees can't simply buy what they need is a tremendous day for baseball!

The phillies will be exciting this coming year!
Personally, I like Tim Lincecum the best and wish he was here in Boston!
Freezing here in Boston! I can't wait for Spring Training!

So because the Yankees wanted Cliff Lee he is the greatest pitcher ever ? Seriously, he has to be the most overated hyped up pitcher ever, he is not even close to an upper level pitcher. The Phillies got an ok pitcher, the Red Sox got a couple hitters, this makes them a lock for the world series ? I still say Red Sox will not make the playoffs even though I really like them and the Phillies will not make it to the big show either.

Wainright, Carpenter, and Garcia all are as good as Oswalt, Lee, and Oswalt."


Are you just a casual baseball fan or something? Offering opinions like this on a public forum basically renders any future opinion you have invalid...

LOL. You haven't seen what Wainright and Carpenter have done the last 2 years have you?

We'll see how those 2 and Garcia do this year.
