Wigginton will be the answer there. And at 3rd base, they are set with a guy who hit what? last year? And how many days was he hurt? And are they even gong to sign him again. And the outfield, well there is where they are the strongest. How old is Ibanez? Can he play every day?And they have Werth in right field… No wait he is not there any longer. The only everyday stong player they have in the outfield is Victorino, and he is getting hurt a lot lately. But maybe this is the year for him too. Good Luck, but watch out for Atlanta.

Ok. Maybe the holes are in your head.

I personally have picked Atlanta, but then maybe your team can do it.The Phills have too many holes and I don’t know hos they can fill them all. I don’t think Wigginton is the aswer.

They didn’t send Espinoza to the Arizona Fall League to play SS for nothin’.

Can confirm that, since its 15 below 0 centigrade today, they work well in the cold. Will advise re actual beaver confrontational properties as events unfold.

We could be looking at a rotation of
Buherle
Strasburg
Jordan ZImmermann
Lannan
Wang
Detwiler/Peacock/Milone

Yeah, thats what you call starting pitching depth!

Makes me think we might find our CF via trade rather than FA.
Lannan might be the odd man out
peacock and milone will probly start in AAA

One is no better than the other except, Volquez can throw about 95-100 MPH.

You got Westbrook, and you are stuck with him.

After we move Westbrook and Lohse, he and Oswalt are our #4 and #5.
