Exactly what I've been begging for the past couple months. The type of guy you want around your young wave of hitting talent.
I could see him as the one going to the Mets, too.
No way CC is going to New York. National media is doing the exact same thing with their Giannis narrative right now. He'll either step down to be with his kids or be back managing in Milwaukee.
He's said the only thing he has left to do in his career is bring a World Series to Milwaukee. I'd like to think he meant it.
I'm just disappointed we won't find out what it would have been like to be a fan of the 64 Phillies. I thought for sure we were headed that route after a (checks notes) TWO game losing streak.

I don't expect it, but would love if they did this with Black or Chourio. After all, don't we pride ourselves on being modeled after the Rays?
Getting better to the point where he's working out on the field but they're going to be careful and make sure he's 100% or close with the division all but wrapped up.
