We had to wait an extra day for the Philadelphia Phillies home opener, but today is the today and here is their first lineup for the game against the Cincinnati Reds at Citizens Bank Park.
We are just a few hours from the first pitch of 2016 Spring Training Grapefruit League play, and the opening lineup is out. Manager Pete Mackanin has posted what mostly looks to be a lineup of regular players. This could show some insight into what Mackanin is thinking when we get to the regular season...
While the Phillies pitching might actually be pretty decent, their offense is going to struggle to score runs all season long.
Taking a look at what their lineup might look like on opening day doesn't exactly have Phillies fans too excited and I am sure the Nationals pitching staff staying up late at night...
