Definitely could be the surprise of spring training and make the team as the second lefty out of the pen, especially with Juan Carlos out for 50 games.

I saw a little of him at instructional and he certainly has the physical part down. I think he's quite coachable, has a different personality then Golson. Expects to get it. I'm not going to write him off just yet, let's see what the development folks can do. Atown, Hewitt has no place to go but up.

I also like Happ for a one inning guy. He was very effective to sixty pitches. I believe his has the backbone . God knows he hasnt got the proper luv from the coaching staff. Carrasco = fifth starter Swami Lou says Berry contributes this year Bastardo hmmmm How good is his fastball. I also like Happ for a one inning guy. He was very effective to sixty pitches.

With Romero suspended, could the Phillies actually want to get a good look at Bastardo? I am sorry if this is off topic, but I just saw that #14 Antonio Bastardo got an invite to Spring Training.
