Let’s check in with the Phillies.
- Robert MacLeod notes the presence of the Phillies’ director of Major League scouting at A.J. Burnett‘s start tonight in Baltimore. Would the Phillies add another starter?
- Jim Salisbury talked to Phils GM Pat Gillick about the rumored Matt Holliday blockbuster. Gillick rolled his eyes at the rumor.
- In general, Gillick seems higher on catching prospect Lou Marson than pitching prospect Carlos Carrasco.
- Gillick’s top target is a left-handed reliever, with a bat on the radar as well. Some kind of acquisition is a "good possibility."
