MLB Trade Deadline: Hunter Pence


So the main headline for today in the MLB trade deadline news is that the Phillies are to acquire Houston's horse galloping Hunter Pence. Now I'm not really the greatest fan of Pence and I definitely think he is highly overrated however I kind of think this would be a good addition to their team. Besides his hustle he seems like a boring nothing excites me player like everyone on Houston. Pence is currently hitting .309 with 11 home runs and 62 rbis which isnt that bad. The Phillies can desperately use a right handed bat in that lineup. If your houston, things only seem to be getting worse. You are about to lose Bourn the leagues leading stolen base leader and you have the worst record in the majors. Cant get any worse than the worst. (lol) It's the Rangers turn to get all the hype in Texas and it seems like President Bush became a fan of them despite rooting for you guys when you had your run in the mid -00's.(traitor)I just really hope you guys suck the life out of the Phillies farm system for this. Plan for the future and make sure it's good becasue I'm getting tired of seeing the Phillies in the NLCS every year. I do still think Atlanta is better than them and I still stand by my Pre-Season Prediction that they will Win the World Series over the Angels. Why you ask? I really dont know. Most of the analysts have Boston and Philly and I just dont think it's going to happen primarily because analysts are awful at making predictions.(the irony) By the way Houston, dump Wandy while he might still have some talent. Just flush out this team down the toilet and use your prospects. You hardly get fans anyway. You're a boring team to watch might as well bring new people that "could" bring excitement. Feedbacks are welcome!!!
