Victorino and Werth? Victorino and Jenkins? Werth and Jenkins?
Back to the beautiful city of brotherly love... and the lineups haven't been posted just yet for tonight's Phils/Padres game.
Today marks the return of Shane Victorino, who has spent the last two weeks recovering from a strained calf on the disabled list. But Jayson Werth has been a man on fire since Vic hit the DL - he's hitting .283 with five home runs and 9 RBIs in that span.
So can you take him out the lineup? He might be tonight, only because the Phillies are matched up against one of the game's all-time top right-handers, Greg Maddux, and both Victorino and Geoff Jenkins are left-handed while Werth is a righty.
We should find out soon enough who's starting and who's sitting.

When the Phillies have off-days, I generally do, too. Well, at least in terms of having to be at a ballpark (I do still write for the paper).
But I never got around to updating the blog. My bad.
Here is your updated Archive Files from the last two days:
