The Phillies supposed safety valve for the rotation won't be ready to pitch anytime soon. Kris Benson, who had originally thought he could be ready to play by Opening Day, will miss his next scheduled start due to arm soreness. Benson doesn't seem too worried about the setback, saying that on a scale of 1-10, his level of concern is a 1. Benson will try to pitch again sometime next week.
