The Phillies have made three free-agency accusations. Trea Turner is the biggest name. He got an 11-year $300 million contract to play shortstop for the Phillies. He is a two-time All-Star. The Phillies also signed Taijuan Walker (30 years old) , a starting pitcher for 4 years at $72 million, who will help them in their Rotation. Finally the Phillies signed Matt Strahm (31 years old) to a 2 year 15 million dollar deal. 

The Flyers are not looking good right now. They are under .500 still with 9 wins in the season, and only 5 teams have less wins then 9.  We are gaining James Van Riemsdyk who was out with a broken finger. Hopefully things will turn around now that we have JVR back.

The Eagles are looking much better than the Flyers are. They've been on a roll for a few weeks now, winning by 25 ( 35-10) the other week to make their record 13-1. They've clinched a spot in the playoffs obviously.

The Sixers are hovering around a .500 win, lose record, but have seemed to be on the up and up lately. They are not winning their conference right now but are right around that last playoff team's spot for the conference. The Sixers have been dealing with injuries so that may be a reason why they are struggling to have a solid win loss record.
