Saunders and Phillies: 1999 Draft

Saunders says the Phillies offered a $150,000 take-it-or-leave-it signing bonus the day after the 1999 draft. When that offer was rejected, Saunders insists he never heard from the organization again.

Star-divide

Joe tells his side of the story.  He explains how he was shafted by the Phillies.  I think someone asked what the deal was in Saturday's game thread.   Well here it is.  Myers was their first round pick and Saunders was their 5th round pick.

Personally I think Joe is better off being an Angel, SLC shuttle aside.

5 picks before Cole Hammels

Looks like the Phils made out ok in that draft.

I would think the SLC shuttle days are over

Interesting in the Philly newspaper piece that a reader comments that they “believe the Phillies over this guy anyday.” But why would Joe want to make up such a story?

Angels in 08!

I know the shuttle is over, but last year was unfortunate.
