Thome is back with the Phillies!
According to Jim!!
Pending tomorrow's physical, my beloved Phils will be getting future HOFer and super good guy Jim Thome back for the 2012 season. He only needs 6 HR to pass jackass Sosa , and even if he hits just 1 HR, he'd pass the output of last year's primary lefthanded PH , non- slugger Ross Gload. This is a great signing, I hope Jimmy stays healthy and helps the Phils to a 6th straight postseason berth. Hot stove baseball heats up!! Go Phillies!!

I figured since he reached 600, he would have retired. Surprised he's still playing. Maybe he hopes he's got a shot at his first ring.

When they were talking about him coming back for this year, the Cleveland media mentioned that he still wanted a ring...I knew he wouldn't be re-signing with the Tribe.. Best of luck to the Phil's this year.

I guess the Phils figure to use him at 1B while Howard rehabs his Achilles early in the season and then have him mostly as left-handed power off the bench. Only issue is when is the last time Thome played in the field?
I really hope he stays healthy and this works out. |

Dont recall him ever being a decent fielder, hope it works out, have a feeling he will start at first for Howard, may get ugly. Nice guy, I hear, cant root against him.
