I want to thank the Cardinals for putting a dagger into the hearts of the Phillies so they can do the right thing for the team and sell at the deadline.
I say that with absolutely no sarcasm. The Phillies were in fool's gold territory by barely hanging in there, and the team was close to buying. Now I don't see any way they do. They are not a good team anymore and Cardinals fans are seeing that first hand. The Cardinals pretty much have everything you need to be a great team. They are going to be hard to beat and I am incredibly jealous of their clutch hitting and how they work the pitcher and foul off balls and stay alive in their ABs. Something this team hasn't done for years, even when the Phillies were winning.

You guys were killed by your GM. Amaro should be indicted for war crimes with the genocide he's performed on your franchise.

Yes, we were. Once Gillick stepped down, it was all down hill. Amaro has done a very poor job and he is not a popular man in Philadelphia to say the least. He isn't going anywhere. Ownership loves him. There are dark(er) days ahead for the franchise.

Why would they love him? He saddled the team with huge contracts for declining and broken down players, liquidated the farm system, and has been wholly unable to replace the existing talent through the draft.

They love him because he is one of "their guys" so to speak. He was in the organization for a while and as a player too and they just love him. It will take a couple more years of this before he is on the hot seat. The Phillies don't have the best ownership in the world. They spend money, but they were lucky they hired Gillick who had a proven championship vision.

Now we tackle the hardest part of the season we have left.
This is a season making road trip. If we can come home with the lead in the division. It's ours.
