You see, I really do like you Edwin. I have become so use to you that I feel like you are 30 or 31. I ask you to forgive me for any hurtful words I may have shot your way.
It seems that everyone let you go without any fanfare or props whatsoever. How all too quickly...

Now I’m just speculating and doubt that it would ever happen at this point. However, looking at the prospects we didn’t give up to get Cliff Lee, a deal for Roy Halladay is certainly possible. The Phillies still have Drabek, Happ, Brown & Taylor who are seen as the top 4 guys in our system.
