Kyle Kendrick

That Carlos Ruiz will miss the first 25 games of 2013 isn't what's most troubling about the announcement Tuesday that he was suspended for using amphetamines. Of those, 16 will be against non-2012 playoff qualifiers. Erik Kratz, the fastest catcher ever to hit eight home runs, is a more than capable spell for the meantime...

Flaws. Holes. Limits. That's what the Phillies have at third base and in the outfield. That's what they need to contend next year. That's right. Flaws. Holes. Limits. Quit the hopes for signings and trades and splashes.

It’s not a ‘must-win’ series or anything because, well, it’s April but that said, this series against the 6-13 North Siders is one that is going to tell us a lot about this Phillies team and what we can expect from it for

The Phillies placed Cliff Lee on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to April 19, with a left oblique strain and recalled pitcher Joe Savery from Triple-A Lehigh Valley to replace him on the roster.
