Phillies Look to Add Another Ace

According to Metsblog, Adam Rubin is reporting that the Phillies have discussed adding yet another ace to their starting rotation...John Maine.

Sorry, I can't even say the words ace and John Maine with a straight face.

In 2010, Maine went 1-3 with the Mets, and posted a 6.13 ERA in 39 2/3 innings.

The last time he pitched in a big league game was May 20 against the Nationals. He left that game after throwing just five pitches.

He was placed on the disabled list and underwent surgery in July to clean out scar tissue from his right throwing shoulder.
