Pat Gillick Steals Tadahito Iguchi from the White Sox

Its time to sell off some unused parts. If you are a fantasy geek this means Alex Cintron has officially won the 2B job. Either way neither one is going to light the world on fire.

Great move by the Phils, shows they're serious about staying in the race.

This is payback for the Freddy Garcia trade!

Dubee, by the way, is the son of the current Phillies pitching coach.

A job well done by the Phillies.

Great move by the Phils. They were in trouble with Chase Utley. Iguchi is a great to replace in order to stay in the playoff race...

Ken Williams must've been drunk when this trade was made..

This guy ain't great. It isn't a big deal.

Iguchi's a free agent Tyrone. This is a three month rental til Utley comes back. Cost the Phils nothing so why not?

I tend to think this was a waste of a prospect, no matter how bad the prospect may be. Utley is a huge loss that you can't possibly replace. And this guy doesn't add much more than what Nunez (who would replace Utley) offers. This team has such drastic needs at the trade deadline, that it frightens me what they will give up (out of a very shallow farm system) to get mediocre players like this.

Protect Howard from getting a cold?

Next order of business: Find pitching!
