PHILLIES NEWS

The Phillies continued thier off season work by making a huge move today, trading pitchers Gavin Floyd and Gio Gonzalez to the White Sox for ace starting pitcher Freddy Garcia who went 17-9 with a 4.53 ERA. last year and is 116-71 with a 4.01 ERA in his 8 year career. Yes, that's right Phillies' fans we have an ace in our starting rotation. Of course this also gives the Phillies 6 starters now, with Jon Lieber being the obvious odd man out, so he's likely to either be traded or sent to the bullpen.
