What fans said

  • “That trade makes no sense for the Phillies. Minus Gage Wood, you’re giving up a starting outfielder and your 2nd best bullpen arm for a rental. Just makes more holes for the team.”

    u/Brian1220▲ 302frustration

  • “Not the Dombrowski way. We only give 1 year offseason deals to guys who are completely washed.”

    u/Swimming_Elk_3058▲ 105betrayal

  • “It says a lot that the Phillies’ number 2 prospect is a 22 year old with a bad back.”

    u/No_Trade3571▲ 83frustration

  • “the fact that he went to the Dodgers is just infuriating.”

    u/Bugsly55▲ 65rage

  • “C'mon, in the offseason, fans would have lost their mind if we paid $12m for a .719 OPS 1B/2B while we already had a first and second baseman and no right fielder.”

    u/Phillies2002▲ 38frustration

  • “What even is baseball anymore? The Dodgers just suck the life out of it. Fuck them”
