@sullybaseball Now Jimmy Rollins? What do the Phillies have to do? Rebuild from ground up? New management? New ownership? What say you?
— Susan Magee (@PSUMagoo) December 12, 2014
The Phillies had a lot of work to do and they aren’t doing it right so far!
They need to make a major change right now.
And somehow I tied it into the movie Enchanted.
Not a lot of brotherly love on today’s episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Dick Allen was kept out of the Hall of Fame by a single Veterans Committee vote.
That didn’t sit well with me nor with author Dan Epstein. The creator of such classic books as Big Hair and Plastic Grass and Stars and Strikes joined me to discuss Allen’s legacy.

Hey Red Sox fans… cheer up! Yeah we lost Jon Lester AGAIN. But the Red Sox picked up 3 starting pitchers and maybe every little thing is gonna be alright.
Eat some chowder and listen to this episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

I started the podcast not knowing where Jon Lester was going to sign.
When the podcast ended and Lester was a Cub, this lifelong Red Sox fan was NOT happy.

White Sox fans had a bad start to their day seeing Dick Allen et al snubbed for the Hall of Fame.
Their day picked up when the team went on a shopping spree!

The Veterans Committee failed to vote Dick Allen and Tony Oliva to the Hall of Fame by one vote.

@sullybaseball why do the ‘stros think they need a singular closer? I’m a firm believer in closer by committee.
— Alex Gibson (@Astros_Alex) December 4, 2014
I take a look at spending on a closer, how the right person can come out of nowhere and why it relates to the Howard Stern show.

Buster Olney wants to take a stand on the Hall of Fame vote. Really? Just cast a vote or not. It isn’t a brave stance.
Plus why you should be glad I’m NOT Jon Lester.
That and more on this episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

The Yankees improve their bullpen and defense. Didi Gregorious doesn’t need to replace Hall of Fame Derek Jeter. He just needs to replace old and breaking down Derek Jeter.

Nobody cares if you report a trade or signing first. Meanwhile the Happ for Saunders deal is odd and why weren’t the Yankees in on Nick Markakis?

Long time and beloved figure of the Red Sox organization Dick Bresciani passed away this weekend.
His thumbprint on the Red Sox was indelible.
His wife, my first grade teacher, was instrumental in making me a baseball fanatic.
If it wasn’t for Mrs. Bresciani, there would be no Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

@sullybaseball what level of achievement is needed for the Sandoval trade to be seen as a success for both parties? Less than WS berth?
— En Æ Wakeman (@wakemanna) November 25, 2014
How will the Sandoval trade work out?
It is more than just looking at the numbers. Fans have to love and embrace him and there needs to be a “Sandoval Game.”
It is a tall order broken down on this episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Josh Donaldson was traded? WHAT?
The A’s sent their MVP candidate for 4 players including 3 minor leaguers who could be great or could fizzle?
Forget the evergreen podcast I had ready to go.
This is an emergency episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast!

Stuck at the airport at Thanksgiving, I began to think about potential Cespedes deals and why the Cole Hamels trade is so critical for the Phillies.

The Giants are moving on from Pablo Sandoval. And with the money they saved, they could fill a lot of holes and be back to the playoffs before you can say Joe Panik.
It is an out with the old and in with the new episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

@sullybaseball @AceballStats where do you think he’d rank all-time if he didn’t take time off to serve in the war?
— Nicholas Leavenworth (@NikoliHabibulin) November 18, 2014
Had Ted Williams not missed 3 years of his prime and 2 more seasons of solid numbers, his final stats would still put him among the best of all time.
I guess that made him an even bigger bad ass serving our country.
It is an episode of hypotheticals on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Driving to San Jose Airport, I struck up a conversation with my dad about Pablo Sandoval and whether or not he will end up with the Red Sox or Giants.
Why have a private conversation when you can turn it into a podcast?
It is father and son episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

The brilliant Mike Nichols died the other day.
The maestro was so brilliant and prolific in his career that he would have been a legend even if he had never directed The Graduate, which was the Citizen Kane of comedies.
His career reminded me of Branch Rickey’s, who transformed baseball in ways that are still felt today and would have been one of its greatest pioneers even if he never broke the color barrier.
It is another strange comparison episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.
