You give a guy that much money and he should be the total package and a team leader. He isn’t a leader.
2. How about going on a little defense AA?? We don’t need Kimbrel, but we have the money...sign him just to keep him away from the Phils. Heck...you KNOW Kimbrel doesn’t want to be a Phillie?? Throw him a bone!!
3. Are the Phillies really going to have a $180 mil payroll?? If they sign Harper and Kimbrel...they will.
4. If it happens as stands we will be 25+ million away from the next team (Mets) and even more away from the Nats and Phils. Sheesh!!
