These too were rough days to be a Phillies fan. It seemed as if the team wasn't going anywhere, and we traded away a lot for very little in return. Jenna was especially distraught over the departure of Rheal.
Amazingly enough, the dismantling had the effect of rejuvenating the team, as they finished the season just 3 games back in the NL Wild Card race.

I will research your question later . . .
I goofed. It's actually Justin Germano.
