Re: Phillies NL EAST CHAMPS offseason thread!

Yea, I have a bad feeling about him being around. I would rather have Aaron Fultz.

meh, I'll take Romero just because he's 3 years younger and he has more upside. Other than that they shoulda spent their money on someone like Cordero or Hiruki (ok I admit the major reason I want Hiroki is that lots of hot asian chicks showed up to watch Iguchi and I want them to come back).
Anyway, Gillick stated that he had about 12mil left to spend this offseason. I'm not sure if this factored in Romero or not; and assuming he was being 100% truthful with that number, what would you all spend it on?
None of the 3rd basemen available seem very reasonable to me (ie they're all probably going to decline a bit) Most reasonable to me might be to take on salary for the O's with a one year rental of Melvin Mora. In the OF I suggested going for Torii Hunter, but that would take closer to the 20mil I postulated they had available. Maybe another reliever, Gagne or Cordero???
