Headline Topic: Phillies + Free Agency
Mike Adams is a decent pickup. He seems to have slowed down last year, which is something that many guys in their mid-30s do. But, he's better than what they had last season and hopefully will be an effective setup man next season.
Lannan is a warm body that throws with his left hand. This was purely a depth move. The fact that this veteran couldn't break the Washington Nationals' rotation last season and spent time in the minor leagues is somewhat concerning.
The Phillies are taking the Nats castoffs now. Didn't that used to be the other way around?
