This trade mystifies me as well. It seems that the Phillies are
determined to hasten their decline. Holland sizzled for them a few 
years ago, but fizzled last year. I believe he checked-in a few lbs 
overweight this year, and was banished to the doghouse. 

Meanwhile, the Pirates get to right past wrongs by re-aquiring Holland.
With Candalaria in the bullpen, there was no more need for an aging Tekulve.
At best, Holland will return to his former ways. At worst, the
Pirates merely have a younger, stronger right-handed complement to Candalaria.

It seems to me that, in the long run, the Phillies stand the chance
of being the big loser in this trade, once again.
