:thumbup Guys even without Vlad this team is a legit contender in the NL east. I myself am excitted about this team to show everyone that we don't need a pudge to help us win! Who knows maybe we will add some bullpen or another bat before it's all said and doen but asof right now this team can comete with the Braves, Phillies, and of course the mets. And anyone else outside the division!
