which clay buck holts will you get? other than that, i think jeremy hell son you know what you'll get out of him and vince >> they brought in two veteran hitters will they make a difference >> they will help t they're going to maybe take a little bit of the pressure off some of the younger guys like maikel franco for instance. saunders was an all star last year. kendricks the phillies will bounce back. you hope that at least they will be able to you know, the phillies finish last in baseball
