Phillies just got Justin Bour

As a bench player?

Platoon with Santana, I'd assume.  Bour kills righties but can't hit lefties, and Santana's a better hitter righthanded.

Sounds much better than that thing you posted about in the Food thread ;)

It is, that's why I won't go full on veggie burger. But the further I get away from college (and closer to death), the more I realize that my diet needs less burgers.

Off to a good start.

Does anyone need a stream of the game?

Doesn't make a whole lot of sense. No one is gonna trade for Santana unless the Phillies eat a lot of that contract. And that is going to make for some ugly infield defense. Bour + Cement Hands Cabrera + Kingery  = woof.

I agree this makes no sense unless they know something about Santana...

I'd guess Bour stays only for this season and they flip him in the winter.  Doesn't sound like they gave up much to get him, and if they can get his numbers back up by playing him only against RH, they could easily get something better for him in the winter.  He's arbitration eligible but has a few years of team control, and honestly he's pretty good.  If I were trying to actually win games and not just worry about contracts, I'd play him over Santana except against lefties.

So how do you feel when adjectives are ended this way?  :poke:

You’re describing me, but I didn’t know I was so in your face with it. Sorry
