Fire Topper, break up the team, and do it before it’s too late for this $250 million payroll to win a World Series. Right? Wrong. Losing to the Mets in the NLDS last week might sting today, but tomorrow looks as bright as ever for the Phillies.

The Philadelphia Phillies blew a golden opportunity to win their first World Series in over a decade this past season. President of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski thinks the team he built has enough good players.

And knowing Middleton and his desperate desire to bring another title to Philly, he might make a "stupid trade," after spending "stupid money" on a spree that brought Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber, Castellanos, Trea Turner and others to Philadelphia.
