Philly can be had IMO.

I agree but I believe the team is better this year as a whole on paper! I saw where their total for 2012 is 93.5 games while last year it was I think 96.5 probably due to the fact of 36 games with quality Marlin and Nat teams!

I see them this year with a much better bench that has interchangeable parts! I think the Phils 6-8th inning relief is deeper!

Injuries with this older team is what worries me the most! And because of the bench it's not the starting 8 that causes concern! Last year with guys in and out they still won!

It's either Halladay or Lee say going down for 2-3 months! I mean you pencil these 2 in like they will always be there but these 2 aren't spring chickens! If one goes down now you have Worley (is he the real deal) #3, Blanton (not the real deal) #4, and gamer Kendrick (doesn't have starter stuff) #5! I guess Joel Pineiro was brought for insurance if something bad goes wrong but can he still get people out!

Hopefully not many injuries for the Phils but either way I see a very competitive NL East race this year!
