News
Phillies reliever Phillippe Aumont might have a 2.45 ERA and 12 strikeouts in 11 innings this season, but it doesn't tell the entire story. Aumont has also issued 10 walks, allowed 11 hits and has a 1.91 WHIP in 13 outings.

"Phillippe right now, he's going to have command issues," pitching coach Rich Dubee said, per MLB.com. "He can dot a couple pitches then miss with a bad one. But he's much improved from where he was at the beginning of last year in Triple-A where walks snowballed against him."

Phillies second baseman Chase Utley returned to the starting lineup Wednesday against the Indians after receiving a breather Tuesday

"We want to kind of monitor and keep him off his feet at times," manager Charlie Manuel said before Tuesday's game, per The Philadelphia Inquirer. "I think if he plays 140 to 142 games with the off days we have, that would be very passable."

Utley heads into play Wednesday batting .393 (11 for 28) with one home run, three doubles, three RBI, four walks and five runs in his last seven games.

Injuries
Shoulder - 15-day DL. Out until at least late May (Updated - 5/6/13)
News
Phillies starting pitcher Roy Halladay has been pretty confident that he can return this season, but team doctor Michael Ciccotti told reporters it is not out of the realm of possibility that Halladay could end up missing the rest of the season.

"That’s very possible," Ciccotti said. "The combination of a rotator cuff injury and a labral injury is a challenging injury for a professional pitcher to navigate through."

Despite that worst-case prognosis, the team was pretty happy with the results of Halladay's shoulder surgery, and thinks he can begin a throwing program in six to eight weeks.

"It’s very possible. It is very possible," he said. "Well, we remain cautiously optimistic about it. And given the person that he is, the motivation that he has, the dedication that he has, he has all the intangibles that are important in getting someone back. But we’re realistic about it, too, that it is very possible that he is not pitching at the level that he wants or what Phillies fans and his teammates deserve him to be pitching at."

Halladay's best-case scenario probably involves him returning to the mound in three months.

Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said before Tuesday's game against the Indians he has "kind of thought about" playing Freddy Galvis in center field. Manuel has said all season how important it is to get Galvis regular at-bats, but Galvis has started just 11 times through 40 games.

Galvis is batting .294 with two home runs, three doubles and six RBI in 21 games.

News
Shortstop Jimmy Rollins has won an MVP and made three All-Star appearances with the Phillies. With the team struggling amid a bloated payroll, he understands that this current incarnation of the team might not be around much longer, including himself.

"We've just got to make sure we do what we need to do before they blow it up," Rollins told MLB.com Thursday.

The Phillies are three games under .500 on the season, a poor showing for a roster that is being paid $159.6 million this season, and a far cry from the team that made five straight postseason appearances and won a World Series from 2007 and 2011. Still, Rollins said he isn't panicking.

"We're not going to panic," Rollins said. "That word isn't going to get into this clubhouse."

Rollins has two years and $22 million remaining on his contract after this season, and is batting just .255 with a career-low .686 on-base plus slugging percentage.

News
Phillies starting pitcher Jonathan Pettibone enjoyed a solid outing as he picked up his third win of the season Tuesday night against the Indians.

Pettibone (3-0), who made his fifth start, surrendered a two-run single to Michael Brantley in the second inning for his only damage of the night. The rookie surrendered two runs and four hits over 6 2/3 innings of work. He struck out three and walked two in a 6-2 victory.

Pettibone has not allowed more than three runs in each of his first five starts. He has a 3.41 ERA and a 1.28 WHIP over that span.

The right-hander is expected to make his next start Monday at Miami. He allowed one run and five hits over 6 1/3 innings of work in his lone appearance against the Marlins on May 3.

Recent struggles have some Fantasy owners thinking twice about running with Phillies pitcher Cole Hamels, as evidenced by his percentage started being 20 points lower than his percentage owned.

While taking a look at two-start pitchers for week eight on Fantasy Baseball Today, Al Melchior said he still considers Cole Hamels a must-start regardless of whether he’s a one-start or two-start. Hamels’ next two scheduled outings come against Miami on Monday and Washington on May 26.

Phillies starter Cliff Lee stayed sharp as he turned in a solid performance but failed to factor into the decision Friday night against the Reds.

Lee, who made his ninth start of the season, gave up a two-run home run to Jay Bruce in the sixth for his only damage of the night. He was charged with two runs and six hits over seven innings of work. He struck out seven and walked two in a 5-3 win. Lee also helped himself with a leadoff double in the bottom of the fifth, which helped pad the lead.

Lee has not allowed more than two runs in each of his last three starts. He is scheduled to make his next start Wednesday at Miami. He's 1-1 with a 3.38 ERA in his last three starts against the Marlins.

Phillies reliever Justin De Fratus has pitched in two clutch situations since being promoted from the minors Saturday. He struck out Diamondbacks slugger Paul Goldschmidt in the ninth inning Sunday while earning his first win and then picked up a hold in Tuesday's 6-2 win against the Indians.

"He likes that atmosphere. He doesn't panic," Phillies pitching coach Rich Dubee said Wednesday, per MLB.com. "Last year he was outstanding when we brought him in with guys on base to get us a big out. Those guys are special."

News
Despite batting .357 with a .438 on-base percentage in his last 13 games, Phillies outfielder Ben Revere was out of the starting lineup for a season-high fourth game in a row Saturday against the Reds. John Mayberry got the start in Revere's place. 

Revere has been limited to six starts against left-handed pitchers this season, but only two of the four games he has sat out have been against lefties. 

Revere told the Philadelphia Inquirer Saturday that he has been getting time off to work on his swing. Revere, who has just two extra-base hits in 118 at-bats, said he is trying to work on driving the ball.

"We've kind of been talking and going back to my old films from the minor leagues with the Twins and trying to find that power stroke," Revere said. "I know back then I was a 10-triple guy, it was gap-to-gap with everything, and they want me to get back to that and I do too. That’s the stuff I’m working on."

Phillies starting pitcher Kyle Kendrick failed to throw a quality start for the first time Saturday since his first start of the season, losing 10-0 to the Reds.

Kendrick pitched six innings for the eighth start in a row, but allowed four runs on eight hits and four walks. He also struck out two, his first start of the season with more walks than strikeouts. He allowed a three-run home run in the second inning, but then settled down.

Kendrick is 4-2 with a 2.82 ERA. His next start is scheduled for Friday against the Nationals.
