Will Phils Get Halladay?

I have been a Phillies fan all of my life, and as many sports fans know they have lost more games in the history of the franchise than any other major North American sports team. So, if you root for the Philadelphia nine, you have had your share of heartbreak over the years. All of that having been said, now is a good time to be a Phillies fan, and the big buzzing undercurrent these next few days before the trading deadline on August 1st is whether or not the Phils will get Roy Halladay in a trade with the Blue Jays.

The Phillies are like the pimply teen who never gets a date. We watch every year around this time as other teams get the CC Sabathias and Manny Ramirezes of the world. But this year it looks like we have a legitimate shot to get to the prom with the head cheerleader.

The asking price by Toronto is said to be Dominic Brown, Kyle Drabek, and J.A. Happ. Happ is 7-1 with the big club, and the other two are the best position player and pitcher, respectively, in the Phillies minor league system.

I would probably make this trade if it was the only way to get Halladay. The Phillies have won the World Series just twice in their history. They have a comfortable lead in the N.L. East right now, and if they do get to the post season, they would have a huge shot at their third title with Halladay and Cole Hamels at the top of their rotation.

I am going to predict that the Phillies do indeed get Halladay, and I am further going to go out on a limb and say that they get him while still keeping one of those two pitchers. Here is the trade: Halladay to the Phils for Brown, Happ, Triple-A pitcher Carlos Carrasco and his teammate infielder Jason Donald.

Quality Web Content at Low Prices

Quality web content that is being offered at prices that you can afford can be very difficult to find. It is kind of amazing to me, but way too many web sites do not invest significant energy into making sure that their content is truly well written. Even copy that you see out there that is grammatically correct and spelled properly often times is just not the work of someone who is a skilled writer.

I have seen some content providers advertising in through PPC channels who charge so much that it is no wonder that many sites feel like they would rather go it alone than spend that kind of money on content. This is why we want to recommend Internet Content Providers if you are looking for top quality content at low prices.

I like the what I see when I visit their blog, and they seem like nice peeps who enjoy having fun and keeping it real. But, the writing that they put out it stellar.

So, if you find yourself in need of some good content, visit http://InterentContentProvider.net and consider shooting some them some business. When you see the quality that they provide, you will be glad that you took my advice.
