-The Phillies cut ties with RHP Adam Eaton on Saturday. Eaton was banished from the team -- and the World Series parade -- last year.
-Jayson Werth is sideloned with an apparent shoulder injury that could be worse than what the Phillies are letting on
- Chase Utley should be ready by Opening Day
- Marcus Giles is raising some eyebrows with his play. The former All-Star second baseman was out of baseball last year, but is fighting for a roster spot on the Phillies' bench. Unfortunately, unless the Phillies decide to get rid of the versatile Eric Bruntlett, only way Giles makes the Open ing Day roster is if Utley remains out.
- Competition for the fifth spot in the starting rotation is heating up. So far, Kyle Kendrick, Chan Ho Park, J.A. Happ and Carlos Carrasco have all pitched very well.
- Pat Burrell received a warm hand from the BrightHouse Network Field faithful Saturday, as the visiting Rays fell to the Phillies in Grapefruit League action. Burrell is still trying to get used to the idea of no longer playing with the organization that drafted him No. 1 overall in 1998. Good thing is, Burrell will be on hand when the Phillies receive their World Series rings April 8 against the Braves
-More news and blogging to come...
