What is the story about?
This
is going to be a big week this week, as well as the days after that. We’re getting closer to when teams have to make some interesting decisions regarding the tendering of contracts to arbitration eligible players, which could mean we see a trade or two coming.
Expect to see some action.
On to the links.
Phillies news:
- Peter Fatse has a specific philosophy he wants to get back to at the plate, but he doesn’t have a lot of time to get it implemented ($).
- ICYMI: I continued my series on ways to improve the Phillies by taking a look at the outfield options.
MLB news:
- The Gold Glove winners were announced. No Phillies winners, but the Diamondbacks and Red Sox had three winners each.
- Remember when we always said that playing first base was low on the spectrum? Turns out, it’s really hard to play first base ($).
- Brad Ausmus is emerging as a candidate to take over the managerial job in Houston, a homecoming of sorts.
- Teruaki Sato has officially entered the MLB posting system. Expect a frenzy to happen quickly before the lockout.
