The Former Phils
Its been 10 days since the trade deadline and I could not help myself from researching the Phils that were traded and those that came in return. Before bashing any trades or players remember it is still early, but the early returns do not favor the Phillies.
Bobby Abreu (NYY)- He hit his first home run in over a month last night. He has scored 3 runs, has 5 RBIs, 3 walks, and even played centerfield last night when Johnny Damon left with an injury. Overall he is 14-34~.412. He has also gotten considerable more attention now that he is in the Big Apple
Cory Lidlel (NYY)- He has started one game going six innings and allowing one earned run. Joe Torre had rave reviews of him and he appears to have fit in well with his new teammates.
Sal Fasano (NYY)- He is 2-13 with 4 SO and I can only wonder if Yanks are considering other options at catcher.
Rheal Cormier (CIN)- He has pitched 3.1 innings surrendering 2 earned runs and does not have a decision. We will get to see him in person this weekend when the Reds visit Philly.
Ryan Franklin (CIN)- He has thrown 5.1 innings getting one victory in the process. He has allowed 3 earned runs including one home run. He is also returning to Philly this weekend and hopefully he repays the Phils by allowing a few home runs in a close game.
David Bell (MIL)- He is 8-34~.235 with no home runs and 2 RBIs. Only slightly better than Abe Nunez.
