On behalf of myself and the entire Phillies organization, I'd like to wish you and your family happy holidays and a healthy new year.

The holiday season is a time for giving thanks for what we have and reflecting on the year gone by. I started 2005 with one team - the Mariners - and ended it with another.

In closing, have a safe and happy holiday season and I look forward to meeting some of you at various Winter Tour stops in January.

Sincerely,
Pat
