He's a dominant strikeout pitcher, especially against heavily-lefty loaded lineups. He beat the Phils twice last year. He also was on & off the injured list several times last year. He's a risk but could be a bonus. And the salary is reasonable
Didn’t MLB Trade Rumors report the Cubs dropped out because of his medical. Maybe I wouldn’t get so excited right now until you find out more about his health.
So I love Lazardo, but I dont get the fit? Are we having Painter going to the minors? Now that we are over the Luxury tax next threshold, are we getting another reliever? Does this indicate a Ranger trade? Our offense in the OF might be one of the worst in baseball....How are we fixing that?
I do not like this trade. We gave up a high end prospect to a division rival for a future arb eligible player who will surely not resign here if we fix him. I know it's a win now move but this was not the move we needed. Lol. Dave better have a monster trade planned because I am not sold on our outfield rn. We're running it back with different pieces but they're the same damn pieces with different names.
"I'd rather pay Luzardo than Ranger" - Huh? Ranger is an awesome starter/pitcher in the playoffs when it matters most. He grinded and kept us in Game 4 last year while our offense was putrid. Luzardo could be good, but there is a lot of unknown and uncertainty with him. I feel like this offseason has been "this guy stunk in 2024, but look what he did in 2023. We can get him cheaper". No way do all three of these moves hit.
Remember, Wheeler was a 4 ERA guy at the time of his signing too. About the same age. But the peripherals screamed that there was more there. Luzardo has a lot of the same peripherals. Really good at missing bats, power FB, wipeout slider. I'd try and get an extension done ASAP. Real diamond in the rough potential.
@jackfritz8332 this game is close because our starting QB that you make a living out of passive aggressively putting down got hurt. I blame you for jinxing him Jack. Stop smiling its annoying.
Ok just cause the guy struck out 200 batters means he is a stud??? That's was 2023. He took a huge step back in 2024. He is digressing now. Marlins would not trade a stud , if they didnt know something.
Do you know anything about the marlins? Them trading a stud is exactly what they would do. Miguel Cabrera, Giancarlo Stanton, jt realmuto, Josh beckett, Derek Lee just to name some from this millenia
@@johnboy1064 Getting over 200Ks in MLB is not easy. If you can achieve that, it takes notice. That’s 2023 and last year he was hurt. He’s only 27. This kid is going to have stretches in 2025 where he is going to crush it.
why so loud bro
He is a weird guy…
Really
He’s so cringe.
I almost turned it off! Too hyper and loud!
Welcome to the Phillies. Thank you Jesus! 😊
Jesus is coming! Spread the word.
Can we please figure out seltser’s audio levels
Ranger in a contract year is going to be sooooo good, Jacks idea of Painter in the bullpen is genius, I love it.
Do not trade Ranger.

LETS GO!!!
Nola should be the 5th starter
what is wrong with u he had a 3.46 era i think in 2024
@Isaiah-t5v Nola sucks!! Keep Ranger trade Nola for a bag of balls
Bro nola should be the number 2 starter he is our second best pitcher no one else in the Phillies rotation besides wheeler Is better than him
@BananaBenOG that's why no one will remember ur name...
Why ? 😂
Seltzer should sit back about 6 ft. from the mike. Fritz knows how to use a microphone. Seltzer acts like he wants to eat it for lunch!
Y’all volume is good 👍🏼 Jesus
If there is anyone who can fix Luzardo , its Cotham
Who did the Phillies give up for this trade
Didn’t MLB Trade Rumors report the Cubs dropped out because of his medical. Maybe I wouldn’t get so excited right now until you find out more about his health.
Jesus Fritz 😭😭
if they want to make another signing and avoid the third tax they would have to make a trade, no?
Dave is moving in silence lol

A high end prospect that won’t be up in 4-6 years????????
I’d like to see Ranger close now. Won’t happen in his contract year, but still.
We are back

Jesus is the reason for the 2025 season!!
Phils need a player who can get on base consistently base hits doubles walks a professional hitter
Use a 6 man and reduce the wear and tear on everyone. 3 RHP, 3 LHP. If someone wants to overpay for Ranger then I will listen.
ERA seems high
He as hurt last year - bad back. In 2023 he has over 200Ks in 178 innings. Only 27 and has a high upside. Good trade.

I hope Jalen Hurts passes for 350 yards today Fritz. I also hope you become a Giants fan .
Weeeppppppp

@ nope, you’ve got that wrong. And I’ll smile all I want. Go phils baby.
@@jackfritz8332 You're the reason we can't have nice things. Go Phils.
Awesome, now they can bump bohm out of the cleanup spot and their hitting should dramatically improve…🙄
Stopped watching 3 seconds in.
This guy had like a 5.00 era last year. Am I missing something? Why the excitement?
Watch his 2023 film. He was injured last year
@@sikwitit4life not everything is about the last five minutes.
Stop yelling wtf 😂
That intro is trash
Putrid trade
Luzardo is garbage!!! Are you kidding me , your excited for this guy????
Over 200Ks in 2023. How you figure?
Ok just cause the guy struck out 200 batters means he is a stud??? That's was 2023. He took a huge step back in 2024. He is digressing now. Marlins would not trade a stud , if they didnt know something.
