Details still being reported but it looks like the Phils got the 5th (OF Nick Williams), 6th (C Jorge Alfaro), 17th (P Jerad Eickhoff) and 29th (P Alec Asher) for Cole and Gascan

Add the Rangers 4th rated prospect (P Jake Thompson) to the list as well as bum veteran Matt Harrison. -
The Phils could get a muppet for Gas Can and be waaaaay ahead.

hard to get excited about "prospects".
they will most likely blow.
But, still happy they got rid of "paps"...he was aids...wrapped in ebola.“I am going to literally sodomize you on the field of battle. I am going to have non-consensual sex with your face and your butt. Then I’m going after your wife and kid”Comment

it really bums me out to see him go but it had to be done. and they got the best possible return. dude will go down as a legend after being under appreciated for many years here. 101-15 when he received at least 3 runs of support. hope he can come back here if this team is competing in 3 years. thanks for the memories, cole.Comment

It is hard to get excited, but that's baseball. This is a huge $$ move as well. It looks like they saved about $40 million when all is said and done.Originally posted by nerd View PostLast edited by Ground_Meat; 07-30-2015, 05:05 AM.Comment

no
Rangers got a coup for moving Harrison and getting 9.5 mil from the Phils. Hamels making 22.5 per (less a total of about 32 mil Phils ended up paying) makes him incredibly affordable and he's likely got 4.5 years of solid pitching left in him.Originally posted by Ground_Meat View Post
They is what netted the Phils some allegedly decent prospects. I won't pretend to know more about them than what I googled a few days ago.Last edited by JuTMSY4; 07-30-2015, 07:54 AM.Comment

What?
He was owed 22 and the team paid him 32 mil? He was owed three more years at a total of around 80 mil, give or take a few mil. They got the best they could for him. Most pundits I have read say both sides did well on this oneComment

Are the prospects Philly guys?
Do any of them talk funny?John Erlichman, one of President Richard Nixon's closest aides, has admitted America's "War on Drugs" was a hoax designed to vilify and disrupt "the antiwar left and black people" when it was launched in 1971.Comment

and saved 80 plus million over the next three years. They got 3 of the Rangers top 10 prospects, and I believe 3 or 4 of them are in the BA top 100 prospects in all of baseball. Pretty decent return. Hopefully it turns out better than the Cliff Lee debacle.Originally posted by JuTMSY4 View PostComment
