I don't follow any sport but baseball and the Phils are my team. They got their #5 hitter and right-handed bat they've been needing in acquiring Hunter Pence and $1MM from Houston for minor league pitchers Cosart and Zeid, first base prospect Singleton and a lesser prospect to be named later. This is the guy I was hoping they'd get!

Completely werth it! Younger, right-handed hitting 5-hole hitter, under team control for 2+ seasons, and already All Star caliber, Pence provides the balance the Phils have been missing all season with Jayson Werth's departure. Plus, they hold on to Brown and Worley and get enough cash from the Astros to stay under luxury tax threshold. Wise play on Amaro's part.
