Like every other phanatical fan, I’ve been counting down the days to April 1st since last year – specifically, December 14th, when Cliff Lee’s shocking return was announced to the world.

59 days until the best pitching lineup in the league takes the mound.  59 days until J-Roll hits it or quits it with the Phillies.  59 days to see how Domonic Brown fills Werth shoes’ (and glove) in right field.

59 days until the Phillies start their potentially best-season yet (knock on wood).

There’s a lot of preseason activity swirling around the Phillies – most notably, the potential additions of Lastings Milledge to the outfield roster and Jason Grilli to a minor league contract.  There will be some noticeable absences in the Philadelphia lineup, with Jayson Werth now in the right field of NL East rival Washington Nationals.

And we’ll get into all of the nitty-gritty here on Citizens Bank  Broads.  Go Phils!
