Anthony’s Opening Diatribe- Trea Turner is The Perfect Fit
See what Anthony Gargano had to say about the Trea Turner signing in his Opening Diatribe this morning…
Trea Turner is a Phillie! We had hoped and we had thought that would be the case and he would come to Philly. We told you last year it might happen. But when it happens?Mman, isn’t it awesome? And the Fightings after that miraculous run now add Trea Turner to the top of the order. It’s a perfect fit. You can’t get more perfect than Trea Turner and the Phillies. It really is everything they need to add balance to the lineup.
When you think about that lineup now, it’s perfect. It really is. You’ll have Turner leading off. And then you will have all your run producers. You have so much flexibility. Stott moves over to 2nd. It gives you flexibillity with the DH. There is so much that you can do, it’s awesome. I wish they were playing now. Choonis and I have got the fever. We were just talking about how we can’t wait for Spring Training. The lineup just makes perfect sense.
Think about what you can do now. You can break up the lefties. You have Trea Turner at the top. There is speed there. You have Brandon Marsh hitting 9th. So you have speed at the nine hole and speed at the top of the order. And Turner is a splash player. Not only does he give you speed and great contact. But he also has pop. He is just such a great player…
We talk about the Brutes on Broad. He fits so perfectly with the Brutes… Its just a great lineup man. it’s a lineup that is going to produce runs. And Turner makes them better. He is a true leadoff guy… Its going to be an incredible Summer, incredible time at Citizens Bank Park. Baseball is back!
