I agree with you. His act would not sit well in the hardscrabble town that is Philly. Two questions for you...actually, three. First off, what do you make of So Taguchi? He's got what, one clutch hit in his time here so far. I'm sure he's likeable enough, but isn't this guy taking up a valuable spot on the bench, and carrying with it a sub .200 BA to boot? Secondly, to what do you attribute the downfall to Adam (buffet) Easton? Heard you talking about how he got knocked around in single a ball. How could a guy who pitched so well, fall so far, so fast? Thirdly, what up with your new job? Are you no longer producing newscasts? Anyway, keep up the good work, as always. Glad to see this turnaround for the 'fightins, and particularly glad that Shane Victorino was not traded. I think he actually brings a bit of Aaron Rowand to this squad, among a team that needs a little spark. Go Phils, Keith Hi John,

Another greatpodcast, along with some good insight on not trading for Manny. I agree with you. His act would not sit well in the hardscrabble town that is Philly.

Two questions for you…actually, three. First off, what do you make of So Taguchi? He’s got what, one clutch hit in his time here so far. I’m sure he’s likeable enough, but isn’t this guy taking up a valuable spot on the bench, and carrying with it a sub .200 BA to boot?

Secondly, to what do you attribute the downfall to Adam (buffet) Easton? Heard you talking about how he got knocked around in single a ball. How could a guy who pitched so well, fall so far, so fast?

Thirdly, what up with your new job? Are you no longer producing newscasts?

Anyway, keep up the good work, as always. Glad to see this turnaround for the ‘fightins, and particularly glad that Shane Victorino was not traded. I think he actually brings a bit of Aaron Rowand to this squad, among a team that needs a little spark.

Go Phils,

Keith
