Jaime Moyer inked a new two year deal with the Philadelphia Phillies. The Soudertown native had been rumored to want to return to Seattle but in the end choose Philly for two more years. This is a good signing. He will provide a great veteran presence for Cole Hamels to learn from as he continues his development. He will also stabilize the back end of the bullpen after Brett Myers and Cole Hamels.

It has been rumored that either Moyer or Randy Wolf would return but Pat Gillick let the door open for Wolf to still return. Another starter could still be acquired in a trade with a team such as Chicago White Sox. It is nice to have four starters locked up before the end of the World Series and the start of free agency. Stay tuned as the Hot Stove is about to heat up with the playoffs drawing to a close. I will go to bed tonight dreaming about the names Curt Schilling, Alfonso Soriano, Aramis Ramirez, and Gary Sheffield donning the red pinstripes next year and leading the Phillies to postseason glory.
