The Phillies look a little better now. I am pretty happy with this team going into the new year. The success of this team hinges on the health of my pitching, especially Chris Carpenter, and the projections of Justin Masterson, Tommy Hanson, Neftali Feliz, Jeff Samardzija, and Casey Kotchman.
The raw power potential of this team is pretty strong when Wood, Kouzmanoff, Quentin, Upton, and Doumit are on the field.
Would still be open to making moves that shores up the back of my rotation and bullpen. I could also use a good lefty reliever, but I don't need to overpay to get him.

Anyone have any opinion on how the team in Philadelphia is shaping up after the 4th worst record last year?

After a quick look thru the roster, I would say it's somewhere around a .500 team. the defense will be below average, the starters will be average, and, if Carpenter is out for any extended period, will hurt a few wins. Hanson and Carmona projections will play a big part on whether it's a 80-82 team or a 75-87 team.
Still better than the Rangers though.

3 words....N. L. East....
The division is a complete wild card....if the rest of the teams don't do much, Philly can win 88 games....or a team like the Nats or Marlins could have a freak year, and Philly wins 80.
I think the OF will have to carry the offense, the rotation should be fine...but I'd be a lot more comfortable with 2 more RP's.

This team has some boom and bust potential, but we have a work horse at the top. This team may live or die with Chris Carpenter.

Or you could trade for Adrian Cardenas to be your 2B...

The 2010 Phillies lineup is looking good:
C: 1B: Casey Kotchman .290/.351/.442 2B: Freedy Sanchez .302/.341/.475 SS: Asdrubal Cabrera .327/.389/.444 3B: Mark Reynolds .266/.360/.566 LF: Carlos Quentin .233/.336/.467 CF: Colby Rasmus .294/.351/.471 vs. RHP RF: Justin Upton .306/.382/.612
We would like to see more from Quentin. Maybe it isn't the greatest lineup in the world, but it is nice to see Upton hitting, I can't wait to pencil him into the three hole for the next 10 years.
