Chase Utley and Jimmy Rollins Update

Hi everybody,

I just wanted to congratulate former Phils Chase Utley (who is still my hero) and Jimmy Rollins for winning the NL West Division Title with the Los Angeles Dodgers last night.  I wish both of them well in the playoffs.

Maikel Franco Likely to Return this Weekend for Final Phillies Series of the 2015 Season

Hi everybody,

I may have been a tad hasty last month by providing Phils third baseman Maikel Franco's final stats for the 2015 season (Maikel Franco Placed on DL and Likely Done for the Season) as he is expected to play in the Phils final series of the season against the Miami Marlins.  If Franco does in fact play...I welcome him back.

Chase Utley Photo of the Week (9-30-15)

Hi everybody,

This week's photo is a picture of Chase at the mound with Phils starting pitcher Cliff Lee.  Lee (who has been injured all season) has likely played his last game as a Phillie so figured I would show a pic of him with Chase.  I hope you all enjoy it.

Talk to you soon,
