He and bench coach Raul Ibanez should have a strong line-up to work with and pitching coach Roy Halladay will do wonders with the young arms.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161762602291616465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433941530167569659.post-49739183055233528232015-08-20T16:02:16.405-04:002015-08-20T16:02:16.405-04:00I was at a Reading Phils game when I heard the new...I was at a Reading Phils game when I heard the news that Mike Schmidt was retiring. And I was at the Reading (Fightin') Phils last night when the news about Chase was confirmed. Maybe I should stay away from that stadium. A sad day for Philadelphia. And to have it happen just after it was announced that Franco could well miss the rest of the season, and so Chase was probably going to be able to play everyday--well, that's so Ruben.<br /><br />I have a million great memories of him. I wish him well in LA and hope that he is a regular back here in the Philly area someday, perhaps as the manager. He could impart a lot of wisdom to the young players in the organization. One of these two prospects had better pan out.Steve F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00753488569249068229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433941530167569659.post-9251089003326713852015-08-20T14:26:21.444-04:002015-08-20T14:26:21.444-04:00It's been a tough few days.
