    I believe he's in his 80s though I'm not sure exactly. He's not a spring chicken.

    He graduated from Georgetown in 1963. That would put him being born around 1941 if he spent 4 years in college starting at age 18/19.

    You can make a pretty educated guess using this...

    In 1963, he graduated from Georgetown University with a degree in economics and after two years as an officer in the U.S. Army he received his MBA from Wharton Graduate School in 1967.

    2. going from an AL team to an NL team
    3. Neither the AL team nor the NL team went to the playoffs last year
    4. The NL team has a “really good shot” at the playoffs if they get this player
    5. Phillies were brought up as a possibility and he said “naaah”

    Note: the poster said he cut off the feed a little early, before Carrabis responded in the negative regarding Phillies. The episode was live today but is not updated as a podcast yet.

    In the video clip he says it's not a pitcher being traded.
    The television crews left and about 10 reporters remained in the room. That's when Price took his turn doing the talking.
    What followed was a five-minute, 34-second expletive-filled tirade. The final tally was 77 uses of the "F" word or a variant and 11 uses of a vulgar term for feces (two bovine, one equine).

    He was cursed by the Clan Kalderash who gave him his soul back to torture him.

    Haniger to an NL team would fit the description

    Phillies To Sign Didi Gregorius

    The Phillies have reached an agreement with free-agent shortstop Didi Gregorius, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

    More to come.

    It's only 14 million. Seems like a missed opportunity to me.

    Didi may very well have preferred Philly and turned down an offer from the Reds but if we didn't at least offer him $14M/ year for 3 years, I'll be more than upset.

    Maybe he trusted Giardi over Bell??

    Very possible. But if something happens this year and the Reds hypothetically offered him two more years, he's giving up $28M to play for Girardi. I can't help but think the Reds just didn't beat the price.
