Hey Emmanuel, I do agree with you to a certain extent. I think if the Phillies can trade Aaron Rowand for Scott Linebrink, move Victorino in center which is where he should be, and then trade Jon Lieber for an outfielder with some pop, then I think you have an improved outfield. The Phillies are gonna score runs, no question about it. Last season when they were contending down the stretch, we basically had the same outfield as we have now. I was not happy about Conine being traded, but we'll see how Jayson Werth and Karim Garica do. I think the bulllpen is a concern. Dotel got way too much money from the Royals, plus he'll get the chance to close there. I think we need to improve the bullpen, and we'll see how our OF shakes out, as I think they will make another 2 or 3 moves before opening day.
