CP Survey: Fix the Phillies!

POSTED: Wednesday, November 11, 2009, 11:04 PM

Yes, it's difficult to argue that the Phils need fixing per se, but the need to do a little something something to get back to the World Series and get over a hump we'll call the Yankees.

Here at The Clog, we've isolated four main areas the Phillies need to lavish a little TLC on over the off season:

  1. Third Base (Feliz has to go)
  2. The Rotation (Is Moyer the best we can do at fifth starter? Will Happ repeat his strong rookie performance?)
  3. The Bullpen (Can we count on Lidge to recover? Should we sign free agent? Should we groom hard-throwing youngsters Scott Mathieson and Antonio Bastardo for bigger roles down the line?)
  4. The Batting Order (Can we really thrive with a .290 OBP at the top of the order? Can we please split up Howard/Utley vs. lefties?)
  5. The Bench (No more Bruntlett?)

and have concocted a poll with what we believe to be the main options for the team.

Take the poll after the jump:
