The theory swirling around is that Utley will eventually switch to first when Howard goes off in search of his motherlode, and Adrian Cardenas is called in to play second. Let's just leave it at this: he and Rollins have a good chance to become Phillies' lifers, and Hall of Fame teammates who may well have their numbers retired at the same ceremony. Watching this duo in its prime is reason 1A to watch any given Phillies game. (Reason 1 is Harry Kalas.) <BR/><BR/>Speaking of Rollins - get well sooner than soon. The absolute best this team can hope for until the day he comes back is a break-even record. <BR/><BR/>-DHAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
