It doesn't get any easier tonight for the Phillies, as they square off against veteran righthander Tim Hudson, who is coming off a great month of May.

Here's the line-up:

Shane Victorino CF
Wilson Valdez SS
Chase Utley 2B
Ryan Howard 1B
Jayson Werth RF
Raul Ibanez LF
Juan Castro 3B
Carlos Ruiz C
Cole Hamels LHP

Still no polanco. Until he comes back, the offense is not going to get going.

move Utley up to the 2 hole and flip-flop Werth & Howard

The Phils hit best against good pitching and will rebound against good pitching. Tonight's as good as any to get back on track.

Fightin: FLiping Werth/Howard may do something (though what given Werth's slump, I don't know) but Valedez has been fine out of the 2-hole.

why is Howard still in tonight's lineup???? dude should be benched for his performance in Mondays game...who cares if he hits Hudson well...I predict 0-4 with 4 K's...Charlie, big man needs a rest!!!

Yeah why flip flop Howard and Werth? Granted Howard isn't getting any extra base knocks, but Werth isn't even getting singles right now.

I may be wrong, but Howard is the only starter who has not been rested and has not been producing all month; it IS time to sit him down for a game or two.
