  5. Phils win. Lee is f'n nasty. That trade looks better and better each time he pitches.

  6. I have been following Fightens since 1964! Most exciting front office we have had in my time. Pat the G and Reuben have rebuit franchise inside and out. To acquire Lee without giving up kid Drabekand kid Happ---3 runs in 24 innings--are you kidding me?
    Only once before can I remember the Phils having a good minor league system--Schmidt, Bowa, Boone, Luzinski, etc--but I must say we are getting close--such a strong lineup--such a promising future! Gotta give the leadership their due--Phils look strong for years to come!!
