The Phillies are just cleaning house now that they're so far out of it. Today they sent Shane Victorino to the Dodgers for a shitty reliever and a low level prospect and they sent Hunter Pence to the Giants for a couple of prospects as well. All we heard all week was about Cliff Lee getting shipped off but this really came out of nowhere. Now look at that Dodgers outfield. Kemp in center, Eithier in right and Victorino in left, that's something to fuck with right there. As for the Giants I'm not really crazy about Hunter Pence. I know he's having a good year but I just can't take a major leaguer seriously who hits with one batting glove. That's little league bro, just wear two. I think the Dodgers are a serious threat to make a run now with the additions of Hanley and Victorino and the Giants are always dangerous with their pitching staff. The NL West just got a lot more interesting.
