Especially one that says "Kendrick" on the side of it.

i completely disagree with TV but this doesn't even come close to addressing what he was talking about

I hate to self-promote but I figure you guys may be interested: I've been brought on board the Phillies' new 24/7 HD radio station. I'll be doing a stats-oriented show every Tuesday at 3 PM. If you have an HD radio, tune in to 98.1 WOGL, then go to HD-4 and you can find me. From what I've heard, several other bloggers have been brought on board but I haven't heard anything official yet, so I won't mention who, but suffice it to say that this station will be awesome.

Good luck Crash

I've heard a pre-broadcast thimble of whisky helps brace the pipes

I'm not recommending anything, mind

I doubt they looked at it very closely...

Chase Utley - 2B - Phillies

Chase Utley (knee) is expected to begin a running program in the next few days.
Utley took grounders over the weekend and reported no problems with his knee, but jogging and sprinting will be the true test. "He’s done some underwater stuff," Phillies GM Ruben Amaro said Tuesday. "But we haven’t gotten him to run normal resistance. Once he does that, it (his return) could happen fast. But it might take a while for him to get there."

Which brings up the question of when exactly do you bring him back after he's been cleared as physically fit? I'd love to see him get some rehab games in, which he usually doesn't do much of, rather than struggle with us just to get back in the lineup 1 or 2 weeks early.

I think he needs to play at least a week of games (including 3 or 4 in a row) to see how the knee holds up. I still think best case scenario is late May/early June

Utley in July or after our first loss. Whichever comes first.

Vernon Odom stole Kyle's ring?!

Based on the little I know, I'd be comfortable bringing Utley back in as soon as he's comfortable baseball-wise. It seems like it's a wear and tear injury, not an "oh crap I've screwed it up and now it will take months to heal". Once the inflammation has settled down enough to let him resume normal activities, you'd want to be somewhat cautious in how you use him but it's not going to be appreciably less strain to play baseball at Lakewood than it is in Philadelphia. I'd rather see him wear it and tear it at the major league level. Would we really be that hamstrung with Utley taking off one day a week and Pete Orr not on the roster?

I would normally agree with you, but isn't the consensus usually that if Utley is back, he's "back"? No shuffling in and out of the lineup, but he's going hard from day 1. Unless Charlie has a breakthrough and changes what he's done from previous seasons, I can't seen him taking a break once he comes back. That is part of the reason I'd like to see him get his legs under him.

I'd take a 70% Utley and Pete Orr the Iron Pif in a second. Shocking Pete Orr Fact: Pete Orr isn't really that good.

Martinez's buzz from his first MLB hit has just worn off with the prospect of Utley returning versus what he has shown as his reason to stick at the show.

Is this a convoluted way of saying that when Utley returns, Martinez goes down?
