Utley back to 5th

[kugino]

he batted mostly in the 2 spot last year and was platooned for the firs few months of the season, but still had 100 rbi. i think he will still be close to 100 rbi this year...not to worry. that offense i pretty good...

[TheOmen]

So hard to separate fantasy and reality. The guy needs to hit 2nd to give the Phils a chance to win. As a Phils fanI hate when they move him down to 4 or 5. (Of course, as an Abreu and Burrell owner, I also hate it for other reasons.)

I think you're right. But Manuel keeps moving everyone in the lineup.

It should stay like this for awhile

Rollins
Utley
Abreu
Burrell
Howard
Rowand
Bell
Lieberthal

Rowand is no cakewalk, so I think he offers Howard enough protection. I wouldn't mind flipping Burrell and Howard either.
