Posts, Spring Gameday

braves-70s.gifBrett Myers makes his spring debut as the Phillies play the Braves in Lake Buena Vista today.

Myers, who resusitated his career after a fantastic second half in 2008, reported to camp 30 pounds lighter. Also pitching is new addition Chan Ho Park. After sparkling performances by Carlos Carrasco and JA Happ and a solid job by Kyle Kendrick, Park will look to impresses as he joins the Fight For Fifth. Scott Nestor and Joe Borkowski are also scheduled to pitch.

Tomorrow is the day players leave to join their World Baseball Classic teams, so major leaguers Jimmy Rollins, Shane Victorino (USA), JC Romero (Puerto Rico), Matt Stairs (Canada) and Carlos Ruiz (Panama) are spending their last days for a while with the Phillies. The lineup: Rollins (SS) / Victorino (CF) / Mayberry (LF) / Howard (1B) / Jenkins (RF) / Stairs (DH) / Giles (2B) / Donald (3B) / Ruiz (C).
