If it works out that Hamels gets big opponents, then that's good for us. But I wouldn't take huge stock in that theory. I don’t know how far down the road you can even look with pitcher matchups.

However I dont think the Phillies thought about this. The Phillies wanted to help Brett Myers HUGE Ego. Cole is the best pitcher on this team and has the ability to be the best pitcher to ever dawn a Phight'ns Cap, make him the opening day starter. Also the phillies should sign him to a 3-4 year deal similar to Dan Haren's contract, buy out the arbitration years Beerleaguer is right… However I dont think the Phillies thought about this.

Hamels would square off against Johan at home on april 18th. Later in the month, he would face carlos zambrano then ben sheets. Looks to me like the phillies are giving him the opportunity to win the cy young---media attention from all those wins early in the season would certainly make him the frontrunner.

We know Hamels is going to pitch well because he has the skill and the confidence. Myers has good enough skill, but he is a head case. Hopefully this promotion will instill some confidence in him and put some pressure on him to step up his game. Let's hope this works out, at least for Kim Myers' sake. I like the move.

Hamels will be starting opening day for the Phils for the next 20 seasons anyway... that would be awesome. the nod will definately give Myers more to look forward to as a starter (so he forgets about closing for now). i don’t think Hamels really cares.

It has to be a little bit of a blow below the belt to hamels. hahaha im a little lost there but i was really shocked at this. It has to be a little bit of a blow below the belt to hamels.
