When the Phillies went to the Winter Meetings in December, Ronny Paulino was a Pittsbugh Pirate.

When they opened camp in Clearwater last month, Paulino was a Philadelphia Phillie.

When I went to bed, Ronny Paulino was a San Francisco Giant.

When I woke up, he was a Florida Marlin.

He still has a locker stall - filled with red uniform clothes - in the Phillies clubhouse at Bright House Field.

So here's a recap: Paulino was swapped for former Phils minor leaguer Jason Jaramillo in December, he was dealt for Giants reliever Jack Taschner Friday night.... a few hours later, the Giants spinned Paulino to the the Marlins for reliever Hector Correa.

I haven't checked in the last two minutes, but I believe Paulino is still with the Marlins.

Taschner, the second player swapped for Paulino in the last four months, is expected to arrive to Phillies camp on Sunday or Monday. He'll likely break camp as the second left-handed reliever (with Scott Eyre).

So how does manager Charlie Manuel feel about the catching tandem of Carlos Ruiz and Chris Coste emerging from the foursome of Ruiz, Coste, Paulino and top prospect Lou Marson, all of whom were considered top candidate for major league jobs?

"We won the World Series with those two catchers," Manuel said.

Fair enough.
