Manager Charlie Manuel said yesterday that Chase Utley is going to be the everyday second baseman. It's just a matter of when.
Utley sat yesterday in place of Placido Polanco, but it may not happen many more times. ''Eventually, and I don't know when, Utley is going to be our everyday second baseman,'' Manuel said. ''I don't know exactly when that day is. I can't say. But he will be the regular second baseman in time.'' He's probably foreshadowing the inevitable trade of Polanco.
