It's hard to disagree with anything written here by Ken Rosenthal, on the Phillies' situation with Ryan Howard. Namely, the Phils are in perfect position, as they have him under their control for his entire crime, right up until he's likely to start declining.
The average Phillies fan, though, doesn't want to hear it. They want the team to sign Howard for 10 years and $300 million, a contract they'll be whining about three years into it.
