CHASE UTLEY RUMORS & GOSSIP

Ed Wade Said He Could Have Traded Utley In A Package Zito

Ed Wade has been criticized for the trades he made with the Phillies, but the former Philadelphia GM reminded people that he was fired, so it would not make sense for him to help out the organization. During a discussion with CSN Philly, Wade discussed some trades that could have happened years ago. Over the course of my eight years as general manager, there were opportunities to...

Player Profile #77: Chase Utley | 2B | PHI

It was just two short years ago that Chase Utley hit 31 homers, scored 112 runs, drove in 93 and stole 23 bases on his way to a 12th overall ranking. Now Utley ranks all the way down at 77, a ranking that feels more generous than anything else. Injuries have cost him significant portions of the last two seasons, and his hitting skills have seemingly eroded with time. Last season...

2012 Fantasy Baseball Peckin' Order: The Top Five Second Basemen NOT To Draft In 2012

Chase Utley (credits below) These 5 second baseman should be forgotten about in 2012...As stated last week, the position of second base is one of the scarcest in the entire game. It isn’t easy to come by once you get past the big named players, and when trying to put together your team it often times becomes a very difficult position to fill. It is very important to grab one...

My Chase Utley Trifecta Should Feature Him In A Dodger Uniform

I may have once upon a time mentioned achieving this Trifecta, but after scanning most of my Utley Collection so it could be pictured with the rest of my UCLA PC, I decided to highlight this Trifecta I completed months and months ago with a post of its own.As I must painfully mention each time I acquire a new Utley hit, Chase not only attended my Alma mater of UCLA, but was also...

What Can the Phillies Expect From Chase Utley in 2012?

The Philadelphia Phillies offensive inconsistencies in 2011 frustrated fans and team management and ultimately led to their early elimination in the playoffs. A place that really hurt the Phillies was the number 3 spot in the lineup. Chase Utley, Philadelphia’s primary number 3 hitter, had the worst season of his career while battling a knee issue. Utley will be a key factor in...

Trade With James: Brought Together By A Dimwit, Chase Utley Wishes You A Very Merry and Pinstripe-y Christmas

Or Hanukkah, for those of you who, like me, skew Jewish. During trade talks for my most recent trade with Sam, he mentioned that a buddy of his had a Chase Utley hit available for trade, and was looking for something Cardinals in return. I had just shipped off my last St. Louis swag in a trade with Simon, so I hit up my LCS and found a nice Jim Edmonds relic. Sam's friend James was...

Chase Utley: Where Does the Philadelphia Phillies Second Baseman Fit Into the Team’s Plans for the Future?

Just two years ago, Chase Utley was arguably the best second baseman in the game, a perennial All-Star and MVP candidate for a Philadelphia Phillies team that relied on a heavy dose of offense to win games. Now? Things couldn’t have reversed more. Utley has missed significant time to injury in the past two seasons and seems to have aged dramatically. While he’s still a great...

Chase Utley knocked out with concussion

Like all concussions, it could turn out to be nothing or it could be very serious: Chase Utley was removed from Wednesday night's game against the Braves after getting hit in the head by a pitch.  The early word is that Utley suffered a "mild" concussion (as if there really are mild concussions), and will miss the next few games.  He will not travel to Milwaukee with the rest of...

RUNNING ROUND-TRIPPER

Chase Utley's inside-the-park home run

They say that the most exciting play in baseball is the triple. So why not extend the most exciting play by another 90 feet (or 92 feet if you're counting the angle of the runner's path from third to home - nerd)? That's more exciting. Phillies 2Bman Chase Utley took advantage of a diagonal wall in left centerfield of Citizens Bank Park in the sixth inning of tonight...
