Joe Blanton has left the Phils for the LA Dodgers.
Average Joe is what he was. He looked like he packed meats for the Acme, not like a ballplayer.
All he did was rack up lots of innings and win us a world series and five division crowns.
He was at his best in postseason play, and he always came up large.
He was a bulldog with a heart of gold, and we loved him.
He is also one a select few who have been both As and Phillies (the As used to be in Philadelphia), joining others like Bobby Shantz and Jimmy Foxx. He was Rookie of the Year with the As.
Joe, we will miss you buddy.
