How worried should the Phillies be about Cliff Lee's sore side?

Thanks for the welcome. Regarding Cliff Lee, you shouldn't be too concerned. By all accounts it was minor and he is throwing in camp, just a little less than the others.

Yeah. Feierabend is a classic case of this. A once OK prospect with the Mariners, he had Tommy John and is now a great wtf spring training guy. A finesse lefty pitcher, he's been rocked in all his big league chances but had good success in the minors.
I think Feierabend is German for Haigwood.[/quote]

Kevin Goldstein likes Vance Worley (sort of):
Vance Worley, RHP, Phillies
For now, the Phillies' rotation is four big stars and Joe Blanton, but there are plenty of whispers that the Phillies are looking to deal Blanton, who is owed $17 million for the next two years and could offer a solid starting option to some teams desperately in need. (Hello, New York!) Should that deal happen early in order to provide the Phillies with some financial flexibility this spring, Worley is the best bet to step in. A third-round pick in 2008 who made a pair of good big league starts last September, Worley's ceiling is that of a back-end rotation piece, but the good news is that he's already there as a strike-thrower with a deep but somewhat pedestrian arsenal.

Earlier today I watched the "MLB's Greatest Games" feature on Game 5 of the 1980 NLCS. They had Bowa in the studio, and it was a great show.
But I saw someone in the Phils dugout in the footage of whom I have never heard, nor seen before--a guy wearing the uniform number 13 named "Wendell." A Google search yielded nothing. It wasn't Turk. I don't remember a coach of that name.
Anyone have any idea? This is going to torment me.

Might have been a batboy. They use their first names and Wendell can be a first name. Was he a young kid?

Google search results talk about Schmidt having a friend and "celebrity bat boy" named Bruce Wendell. Can't find the source article though.
Here's some corroborating info on Bruce Wendell being that guy

Just so you know, Cole Hamels is going to win the CY Young Award this year.
