3/11 Cole Hamels (P-PHI) Cole Hamels had another solid outing and looks to be in a better frame of mind than last year. Hamels allowed a HR, 1 ER and struck out 3 in 3.2 innings pitched. Hamels has a 3.18 ERA on the spring and will be a solid #2 SP behind Roy Halladay.

3/11 Greg Dobbs (3B-PHI) Greg Dobbs, after a below average season, is back spraying the ball around. Dobbs went 2-4 with 2 runs scored Wednesday and is batting .300 on the spring. Dobbs will be the primary lefthanded bat off the bench this year.

3/11 Placido Polanco (2B-PHI) Placido Polanco had a nice game and continues to hit early on this spring. Polanco went 2-2 with a couple of walks and is batting .400 on the spring.

3/11 Jason Heyward (OF-ATL) Heyward has missed the last few days with a stiff back. He is expected to return on Thursday.

3/10 Donny Lucy (C-CHW) Lucy has 48 SB in his last 6 years, uncommon for a catcher. He already has a SB this Spring

3/10 Joey Devine (P-OAK) Devine has been shut down for a week due to elbow soreness

3/10 Alex Rios (OF-CHW) Rios has a sore shoulder but still blasted a home run already this spring

3/10 Emmanuel Burriss (2B-SF) An MRI exam and CT scan saw the bad news that an X-ray missed. Infielder Emmanuel Burriss did refracture the bone in his left foot, an injury that cost him most of the 2009 season. Burriss got the news Saturday from Giants podiatrist Dr. Larry Oloff, who flew to Arizona from San Francisco to discuss the injury with Burriss and the team's medical staff. Manager Bruce Bochy said Burriss will wear a walking boot for four weeks to stabilize the bone before he is re-evaluated.

3/10 Pat Neshek (P-MIN) With a possible season-ending injury to Joe Nathan, LHP Pat Neshek will be at the front of the grouping looking to nab the closer job for the season. Neshek missed all of 2009 recovering from Tommy John surgery. Other options include Matt Guerrier, Jesse Crain, John Rauch, Clay Condrey, and José Mijares.

3/10 Matt Guerrier (P-MIN) With a possibly season-ending injury to Joe Nathan, Guerrier is probably the leading candidate to close out games for the Twins, as he was the primary set-up man in Minnesota last year. Other options to close and set-up include Pat Neshek, Jesse Crain, John Rauch, Clay Condrey, and José Mijares.
