Also reprents AJ Burnet, so he was pretty topical.  Anyway, he specifically said that the Phils had not initiated discussions regarding extension, and the way it works is the club initiates the contact.  Whether any of that matters, I don't know, but that was his state of things. Amaro obviously has a pretty good idea what he wants to do with this club and he’s not wasting any time.>>

I'll re-post what I found to be the most surprising part of the Myers situation: <strong><em>Myers said he would have been willing to sign a one-year, incentive laden deal to remain with the Phillies, but the Phillies weren’t interested. </em></strong>Amaro obviously has a pretty good idea what he wants to do with this club and he's not wasting any time.
