my view is, let's wait and see what happens.
The Red Sox sanctions create an opportunity - but taking advantage of that opportunity will require re-working whatever plans the organization has in place, in a very short timeframe.
It will be an interesting test of the Phils' new management team; it will give some indication of their priorities, and their ability to adapt on the fly to changing circumstances.
That said, I suggest we don't try to read too much into it. Other clubs will be maneuvering to take advantage of this, along with the Phi8llies. How we do will be just one more indicator of how good our front office now is, and we're accumulating lots of others. For example, the just-ended (or ongoing?) Rule 4 draft/signing period is an indicator - and a very positive one, IMHO.
So...let's see how they do.
