Burrell Is Scratched

Pat Burrell has been scratched from tonight's lineup because of stiffness on the left side of his neck. The Phillies said he is day to day.

Greg Dobbs has taken Burrell's place in left field. He will hit fifth.

I bet he will have 2-3 Hits and Pat the Bat will recuperate longer..

Dobbs 2-for-4, with 2 RBI. Just what the Dr ordered.

why isn't Dobbs starting in right instead of Jenkins?

Another great offensive game for our Fightin' Phils.

Nice win, Kendrick was solid. Finally six over. Let's keep it going, Eaton...

Why would you start Dobbs and waste your best pinch hitter? Some players fit/perform best as a role player, and Dobbs is one of them. (Taguchi is another.)

I agree about not starting Dobbs on a regular basis. You need a go to guy off the bench and he's proving to be exactly that. It's one x-factor that puts the Phils ahead of most teams and will be extremely valuable down the stretch.
