The Phils just sent out a text message to change the itinerary for the pregame press conferences.

Added to the list of interviewees, head athletic trainer Scott Sheridan. Doesn't sound like a good sign, regarding Pat Burrell's back, huh?

Maybe, maybe not. Burrell is on the 25-man roster that was just release. (No surprises - Seanez is out, Taguchi and Happ are in). Burrell is in, too.

I can't confirm whispers in the press box that Burrell will be in the starting lineup. But my guess is the Phils are making Sheridan available so he can field everyone's questions all at once, not to announce some series-ending injury for Burrell.
