Hunter Pence to the Phils

Philly sports finally turning around, pays to be a 4 for 4

Curious to see what y'all gave up, but he should be a pretty good addition to that team. Always been a fan of his so I'm a bit upset that I now have to refer to him as a scumbag.

If its the deal I think it is, Houston won big.

 

[stillin729]

It's corset and singleton apparently, Astros are idiots bc the Phils were gonna them Dom Brown also earlier today...thanks again Ed Wade

 

[the wizard]

Singleton, Cosart and 2 to be named later.

 

[statis22]

Sad to see Pence go, any of these prospects good? Singleton, Cozart?

 

[durden7]

I dont even think Pence is that good.  

 

[kevin cleveland]

I don't even think that's a good opinion.

 

[Retroballer]

Ed Wade loves the Phillies. They fired you for a reason.

 

[rawex5]

Meh.

 

[philballa09]

kept Dom Brown...thank you Ed Wade

 

[MambaMentality824]

Gave up two guys have a chance to be pretty good in Cosart and Singleton but we got lucky by keeping Worley and Brown. The Phillies are undoubtedly in a win-now mode and this acquisition definitely makes us a better team for the next two+ years and increases our chances to bring another WS to Philly. Great day to be a Philly fan i must say

I still can't believe we're at a deadline where Hunter Pence snags two blue chip prospects and could have had a third

I think Houston did a good job here but Philly won as well. Team control for a couple years and the RH power bat they were missing. Could still pitch to that lineup but Pence makes it a bit harder. If Lidge gets it figured out in the back end

 

[philballa09]

we still have Trevor May so losing Cosart doesnt sting that bad..

Singleton was blocked. I was more worried about losing Dom Brown and Worley

easy there little sport. wouldnt want you to get banned again and ******edly have to put another screen name's death in your signature as if the screen name was actually real

you want me to find you a tine? you gotta find me a deer first

 

[peteweezy]

Half way good day today with Pence that other news I'm not feeling lol. Also wish the Union would've won.

 

[dland24]

Dont blame the Phils for making a move after they were smacked by the champs!!!

 

[cosmiccanon]

**Looks at sig**


I ain't even mad.

 

[shady4life]

Pence is the man. Phillies bolster that O to go along with that arsenal of pitching.

 

[mfr3shm]

Phillies got better. Braves need to do something.

 

[Humbled]

The Astros are idiots. Gave up faith in them a long time ago.

 

[Retroballer]

The new ownership needs to tale control ASAP and get Wades behind out of Houston. He was never a good GM. Never will be.

I don't think anyone should consider Pence a power bat, he is a really good young player, has a potential to be a star and has some pop, but I don't think he'll be hitting 30 bombs a year. He is a contact guy, who can hit .290 steal 30 bases 20-25 hrs 90 rbi.

I like Pence and in that Phillies lineup I think he will fit really well.
