In the latest edition of Phillies Nation TV, we welcome in special guest Todd Zolecki, author of “The Rotation”, a book he co-authored with Jim Salisbury of CSNPhilly.com.
Zolecki also writes for MLB.com as their Phillies Beat Writer. We talk in-depth about what it took to write a book that centers on the four aces from last season; Roy Halladay, Cliff Lee, Cole Hamels, and Roy Oswalt. Pretty cool; I saw Rich Dubee walking to the team bus with it in his hand.
Todd sticks around to talk about this year’s Phillies club, which is struggling at the plate. And, we ask him his thoughts on Cole Hamels.
Natalie Egenolf has some great reader comments and questions, plus Corey and I talk about Hamels and Josh Hamilton of the Texas Rangers. Who would you rather have moving forward if you had to choose?
It’s a great episode, guys. Enjoy!
