I'd rather drop Herndon and keep Podsednik around, especially since we don't need a 5th starter at first so we have an extra bullpen guy there.

None of the three hitters the Phillies acquired this offseason hit better than .256 last year. Jim Thome and Laynce Nix are among the 25 active major leaguers with the worst at-bat-per-strikeout ratio. Thome ranks 11th, averaging 3.3 at-bats per strikeout in his career, while Nix ranks 24th, averaging 3.7 ABs/SO....Nobody can expect him [Manuel] to turn Thome, Wigginton, and Nix into contact hitters.
