Phillies

The Phillies simply couldn't afford to keep Shane Victorino and Hunter Pence and thus they were both traded.

Both players had undisciplined plate approaches. Victorino was an outstanding center fielder with a great glove and a strong arm. It will be difficult to find a productive, durable, replacement for him.

Hopefully Domonic Brown can replace Pence in right (or maybe he shifts to left).

Amaro opened some payroll space and probably needs to go even further if he wants to come back strong next season. It will be interesting to see if 2013 is viewed as a transitional year, or one of true playoff hopes.



Flyers

Whether Jakub Voracek was going to be included in Paul Holmgren's follow-up deal to the Predators for any Shea Weber signing is irrelevant now.

What is relevant is that the Flyers have signed their nice RFA winger to a four-year deal today. It will be interesting to see how he plays with 'G' and 'Hartsy' on the top line.



Baseball cards

For those of us who are old enough to remember When Baseball Cards were King, the spring is always a special time of year.

Bygone days spent with elementary school days and family members opening packs of Topps cardboard gold never truly fade away.

Phillies

The Phillies decisions to move both Shane Victorino (Dodgers) and Hunter Pence (Giants) confirm that a full-throttle effort to begin a new era has begun.

While move dealing is yet to be done and some potentially dramatic moves could be made this offseason as well, make no mistake about the importance of this date in Phillies history.

Various pieces from the core of the Phillies team that won the 2008 World Series (Howard, Utley, Rollins, Ruiz and Hamels) are still in place at the present time. Blanton is rumored to be dealt soon and Kendrick is also still with the team.


Flyers

Whether Jakub Voracek was going to be included in Paul Holmgren's follow-up deal to the Predators for any Shea Weber signing is irrelevant now.

What is relevant is that the Flyers have signed their nice RFA winger to a four-year deal today. It will be interesting to see how he plays with 'G' and 'Hartsy' on the top line.

Phillies

The Phillies seemingly have to trade some players before the non-waiver trade deadline.

It would be best to create as much payroll flexibility as is possible for next year.
I'm just glad that Cole Hamels will be remaining with the team. Because that situation is resolved any player who is dealt will be okay by me.

I would be shocked to see Carlos Ruiz be among them. Beyond him all bets are off.

Flyers

Phillies

The Phillies seemingly have to trade some players before the non-waiver trade deadline.

Victorino and Blanton can't possibly stick around much longer, can they?

Domonic Brown seems likely to be seen in Phillies uniform once again if any outfielder (other then him, of course) is dealt.


Flyers

Whether Jakub Voracek was going to be included in Paul Holmgren's follow-up deal to the Predators for any Shea Weber signing is irrelevant now.

What is relevant is that the Flyers have signed their nice RFA winger to a four-year deal today. It will be interesting to see how he plays with 'G' and 'Hartsy' on the top line.

Sixers

Close out the Bulls tonight. Celebrate a fine achievement and move on to round 2. It's as simple as that.

Flyers

When you are facing the possibility of a season-ending game you have to give it all you got. Nothing less should be expected and is hopefully seen from this Flyers group that has produced a good year overall.

Phillies

If Blanton can continue to give anywhere near the effort that he did during his last mound gem this team should contend, even if their offense is always inconsistent.

Flyers

A strong Game 3 effort on the man-advantage would be great.

But even if the Flyers can do well in New Jersey it will still be too early to celebrate.

Phillies

Blanton's great game really gives the bullpen a rest.

Team needs to make sure that Halladay's loss in velocity and apparent dehydration last night aren't warning signs, but just a blip on the radar.

Flyers

If the Flyers can win tonight, the manner in which they do so could serve as an indication as to whether the Penguins will be able to fight back in this series.

If the Penguins win, it's basically the second battle in a postseason war.
Phillies

Pat Burrell will retire as a Phillie in a nice gesture on both sides.

His exhilarating hit in the World Series and lead in the resulting victory parade were such fitting ends to his time in red pinstripes. The era of good Phillies feelings continues.

Nice effort by Joey B. last night against those Marlins. More of that and this staff could be better than expected.

Phillies

Will Joe Blanton win more games than Vance Worley, or one of the three aces?

Will the Phillies middle relief men smooth the path to Papelbon?

Will Juan Pierre still have enough left in the tank to lead a renewed Phillies offense that is based on OPS (on base plus slugging percentage) numbers?

Phillies

Will Joe Blanton's worth be cashed in to help fill Utley's void now?

If Galvis performs well, will he move into some type of platoon with Utley?

Will those who believe Galvis can't hit major league pitching be proven right, or wrong in time?
