    Yes!! I hope he plays a lot. That career 0.8 WAR is enticing.

    Wow!!

    That's a 6 million dollar pay cut from last year.

    Guess the negative rWAR (-1.7) last year really cut into any payday.

    The Phillies hunt to get Younger is a little bit to literal with the signing of both Youngs.

    I guess it's because he's a former 1st pick.

    I love this move. Finally Amaro does something good. Delmon Young brings versatility and power to a lineup that's already one of the strongest in the league overall. He's also a right handed hitter which is exactly what we needed. I feel like his patience at the plate will be an asset, especially hitting in the middle of the line-up. His defense is also very good and has a great throwing arm. He can cover a lot of space and CBP is not that big anyway.

    Props.LgnD.
