This team is my favorite Phillies team since the 93 team...I know they won it in 08 but that 93 team was special with likeable guys and these guys are very similar to that team and way more talented

The Machado thing has me torn. Personally coming out before the season telling everyone he's opting out is kind of a punk move but at the end of the day he is in a business and as an athlete he knows that life span is small so he's treating it as a business move which I'm fine with. I think it's the optics that bugs me the most.
