Ruben Amaro: Chess Master

Ruben Amaro Jr., General Manager of the Philadelphia Phillies, sits down with NBC 10โ€™s John Clark and talks the future of the Phils. If youโ€™re not excited for the 2011 season yet, consider this: Amaro calls this club his most talented team ever (on paper).

If youโ€™ve been following, the team looks pretty different than in recent years. We all remember the merry Cliffmas, when we re-signed Cliff Lee. But you need to give a little to get a little, and Jayson Werth is sitting on a pile of money somewhere in the Washington Nationals' ballpark. (Think heโ€™ll invest in a shaving kit? Letโ€™s hope not.)

In the videos, Amaro discusses the intimate details of the Cliff Lee deal, J-Rollโ€™s contract year, and the beauty of being a Phillie. Check them out, and let us know what you expect for the Phils in 2011.
