..and I drank him.  I assume it was a fly, his buddy is still swimming around.  Look before you drink my fellow bloggers.

Conine last three years: .289/.346/.450

Conine last three years vs. Phils: .364/ .407/ .727

Well if Marlon Byrd and a few other minor leaguers (of low value) have to go in order for Steve Finley to patrol the OF, then don't let the door hit ya in the ass Marlon.  For some reason I just became concerned with the welfare of Micheal Bourn, he better not be involved in any deal or I will say one negative thing about Wade everyday until he is given the boot.  Sorta like how Conan O'Brien used to squeeze a "Christina Aguilara is a whore" joke into every monologue for awhile. good stuff

Oh yeah, Terry Adams was traded to the Sox on Saturday.  While he is giving up a good number of walks he is a solid arm out of the pen, unlike our potentially three headed monster of Hernandez, Geary, and Powell (who i added to this list tonight).  Here's some food for thought: Wagner cost us Duckworth and $9 million, Foulke cost $6 mil and Adams $1.7 mil.  I love love love love that the Phils have reached deep into thier wallets, they just have to work on where they spend it.  I bring those names up b/c Foulke and Adams were both FA, and we went and got Wagner instead.  Nothing against Wagner.

This is worse than swallowing a fly: If something happens to Worrell or Cormier in the next couple of days....Roberto Hernandez will be all over that mound.  And I guess he would have to be, Geary anyone?  It shouldn't get that bad, Wade more than likely will bring in another arm before the deadline.  Say he doesn't though, and the Doomsday scenario comes true: Cormier goes down and Wagner goes to the DL.  Do they bring up Floyd? Can they afford not to take that risk.

All my slary info comes from Dugout Dollars, a truly indespensible site.
