Better days will come, I promise
I’m sensing tons of pessimism.
You wanted Ryne Sandberg gone. You got that.
You wanted a change in organizational philosophy. You got that.
You wanted Ruben Amaro Jr. shoved into a cannon and fired into the haze beyond the Conshohocken Curve. In a way, you got that.
But the Phillies still stink, you say. Ryan Howard is still there, blocking your enjoyment like a screaming patron inside a darkened movie theater. This franchise will never learn. And why the hell are Freddy Galvis, David Buchanan and Aaron Harang still on this team? They’re garbage! Everyone is garbage! They won’t win anything next year; why should we care? Not like they’re giving anything back to us!
