    they "jerked around" Swanson because he was one of the worst hitters in the majors.

    they traded Rodriguez to save money.

    It wasn't really about Camargo.

    Do you think both of those moves would have been made had Camargo not started off hot?

    Moving him to 2B has nothing to do with his hitting. Saving money? for what?

    The Schultz article shed a little light on the "saving money" and the player budgets by Liberty Media..

    right now he only has his fastball.. nothing offspeed to fool the hitters. they can react to anything spinning in the zone.

    Once again, screw you Teheran.

    The Phillies are one of the worst teams in baseball. Pitch like a big boy against them.
