Franchise roundup

The Philadelphia Daily News has two stories about the Pedro Feliz acquisition. I think I speak for both Mikes when I say that just about anyone would be an upgrade over Wes Helms. Further, I think we agree that the Phillies should keep Greg "Lou" Dobbs and send Helms packing.

In the Minors, the Phillies have signed three players in the past few weeks: catcher Josh Eachues (2007: independent South Coast League), first baseman John Urick (2007: Clearwater), and left-handed pitcher Angulo Jimenez (2007: ???).

The IronPigs are now offering nine-game ticket plans , which include general admission tickets to the team's March 30 exhibition game against the Phils, in addition to their season tickets. The Reading Phillies have their own offerings, and the Big Phils have several packages and spring training tickets to tempt you with before single-game tickets go on sale Feb. 21.
