And Medina will get the win instead of Felix.

Great illustration for anyone out there still wondering if "Wins" is a valid statistic for player evaluation.

Amaro denies mistake was made in Pence trade:

“There was no mistake,” Amaro said. “If someone said that, they are misinformed because it’s absolutely, unequivocally wrong. It’s false.”

On July 29, 2011, the Phillies acquired Pence from Houston for three prospects, pitchers Jarred Cosart and Josh Zeid, and slugging first baseman Jonathan Singleton, and a player to be named later. Two weeks later, that player turned out to be Santana.

Houston’s general manager at the time was Ed Wade, who had previously been the Phillies' GM. He was fired as Astros GM after the 2011 season and is once again working in the Phillies' front office.

“There were three names that they had to have,” explained Amaro, referring to Cosart, Singleton and Zeid. “There was a list of three or four more guys from which they could choose one. I think they wanted more time for evaluation. Santana was on the list because Ed asked for him to be placed on the list. There was no mistake.”

Phillies' SB Nation blog reaction:

In other words, the Phils would rather have us know that they needlessly threw in a legitimate prospect as a player to be named later rather than someone made a bumbling clerical error. I have no reason to believe it isn't the truth, because frankly, this makes the Phillies look even worse, in my eyes.
