July 15, 200916 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 15, 2009 -> 02:41 PM) 1 year prorated $1 mil. Hell of a deal for Philly if Pedro can produce. Considering he spent 3 months saying he wouldn't sign for less than $5 million prorated, I think the deal says something about how much they expect him to produce.
July 16, 200916 yr QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 15, 2009 -> 06:51 PM) How fast is his fastball now? Can he still hit 90? There were reports of him throwing in the low to mid 80's from some scouts who saw him throw in June. If he was hitting 90, he'd have had a good shot at the $5 million prorated he wanted, that's what he was throwing with the Mets.
July 16, 200916 yr Classic case of throwing s*** at the wall and seeing if it sticks (you don't sign a guy and stick him on the DL expecting him to make a big impact). Pedro is a name at this point. But at that price, he's worth a gamble. I couldn't disagree more in regards to this signing affecting what happens with Halladay. If the Phillies don't get him, it won't have a thing to do with this signing.

If the Phillies don't get him, it won't have a thing to do with this signing. agree; if anything, if they get Halladay, and they get Pedro's combination of his past 48 starts (4.74 ERA), they are happy with it. A rotation of Halladay/Hamels/s***who (? Happ? Moyer? Myers?) with Pedro coming out of the pen is a dangerous staff.
