YWT #11- Phillies, Eagles, and Flyers, Oh My!
Jake Arrieta is a member of the Philadelphia Phillies, for the next three years at least. It was announced on Monday that the righty signed a multi-year deal with the club, thought to be a three-year contract at about $25 million per season.
Three years is an interesting term length, as the Phillies appeared to still be rebuilding. Signing an ace like Arrieta seems to indicate that upper management thinks the Phillies will be World Series contenders by the end of that time.
A few weeks ago, You Would Think discussed the need for an ace in Philadelphia, and it seems the team has responded. Both of our hosts think that the former Chicago Cub may be enough to push the Phillies into playoff contention as early as this season.
On this week’s episode of You Would Think, Kyle and Mike announce the first ever YWT giveaway winner, discuss the Arrieta signing, as well as talking about some interesting trades the Philadelphia Eagles made this week. They also break down the consistency issues plaguing the Philadelphia Flyers as of late, and the episode features the weekly return of Seven or Six Seconds, the only Philadelphia 76ers segment on the show.
