Phillies Nation

I’ll leave the cruel jokes about the man’s injuries to someone else but I will say I’m gladder than ever that Phillies didn’t give him the four-year deal he demanded before he left for the Mets.

As much as I hate him cause he’s on the Mets… I love the fact that he called out his teammates for never being accountable and not sticking around to talk to reporters after loses and stuff.. and even when he blows a save or takes a loss, he’ll still man-up and give interviews..
BUT.. he’s not a young guy anymore.. and he relies on throwing HEAT, not really on his movement, so this will be hard for him to rebound from

I will not take the high road cause we all know that “Hick” never did. HAHAHAHAHAHA Billy! Who’s laughing now you C*CK SUCKER! Sorry about the language everyone just had to get that out….

Brian… no one’s laughing over the Galvin Floyd for Freddy Garcia trade (without a physical)? (chuckles)

I can agree with Bruce up there but if we signed Wagner back then we wouldn’t have Lidge now. I will take Lidge over Wagner any day. I guess now all the next GM has to do is trade for Valverde as we are collecting Astros closers.

Seriously, Wagner took the money and ran! I liked watching him pitch when he was here, but he choked over his career in big games or down the stretch. And then when he signed with NY he couldn’t get over Philadelphia. He kept running his mouth about the situation here when he was there. He stiffed us for New York and that never sits well with Philly people. We see you took the money but keep us out of your mouth. It stinks he got hurt but seriously, he was more bark then bite. I mean Doug Jones was a great closer too with a ton of saves. But check out Wagner’s stats in September and the playoffs with his career. Very mediocre then anything.

Matt, good point that Wagner choked big for us. Case in point is when he blew saves against the Astros for us down the stretch and we ended up losing the Wild Card to Houston by 1 game.

Mets are going to go hard after K-Rod without a doubt… this might actually be a break for the mets in 2009… They are going to give k-rod whatever he wants…

Mets bullpen is actually been much better without wagner…

I feel bad for Wagner – he’s a competitor and tough ball player. His mouth oftentimes writes checks his ass can’t cash, but he’s a rare breed in that he calls it like he sees it. You have to appreciate honesty sometimes, like someone else noted. However, he plays for the Phils’ biggest rival, and I’m happy to see we won’t have to deal with him the rest of this season. And that’s about as “high” of ground I can give to a Met.

good. i hope the mets do sign k-rod. sign a guy coming off a career year . give him money as if he’s going to have that year every year. then three years from now you’re looking for a new closer because the guy you signed came back to earth and is only average.

Nice to see many of you taking the high road. It’s never good to wish or laugh at another team’s injury misfortune because karma always finds a way of catching up with you.

So, with Wagner and Maine all but out of the picture for 2008, would it not be like the Phils losing Lidge and Blanton for the stretch run? If that happened, I tend to think most Philly fans would all but write off the season. Just makes it all the more impressive that the Mets continue to maintain their (slim) lead in the division and win big ballgames without some of their major players. That said, it would be a disappointment if the Phils didn’t emerge as NL East winners. Outside of Gordon and Jenkins, who weren’t that great to begin with, the Phils are pretty much at 100%, while the Mets keep piecing together a competitive starting rotation and bullpen. If the Phils honestly think they’re better than the Mets, it’s time to put up or shut up, because you no longer have any excuses.

haaaaaaaaaaahahahahhahahhaha.

kkkkkkkkk rod is on they way

again nice to see some people take the high road here. But for the mets this is a good thing. philly fans know in a big spot wagner coughs it up, and they would have not even went after krod is wagner is healthy. We’ll see how long that 21- 10 record hold tho

You’re on this site 24/7.

Every time I come here I see your delusional ass comments.

I hope the Mets don’t land K-Rod. On the other hand I think the Phils will have a great team in 2009 know that are pitching is improving combined with are offense that has been missing in this year.
