Chase Utley Scratched, May Have Injured Oblique

Chase Utley, in the midst of putting together his first healthy season since 2009, was pulled from the lineup on Tuesday with discomfort in his right side.

Shortly before tonight’s first pitch, the Phillies were dealt another crucial blow when Chase Utley pulled himself from the lineup due to soreness on his right side. He was replaced in the lineup by Freddy Galvis.

Chase Utley is having a weird season

Last night might have been the most complete offensive effort all season for the Phillies. While 10 hits and 6 runs is hopefully a sign of things to come, it has not been a common occurrence for the 12th ranked Phillies offense. With 33 games in the books, we should now be at the point where their personality begins to arise. So, what is the identity of the 2013 Phillies offense?

Chase Utley: Phillies fans booing doesn’t help

Philadelphia sports fans are notorious for their harsh behavior. They boo their own players, they boo opposing players, they hassle family members, and they’ll even boo Santa Claus if they feel up to it. But one thing that makes the booing worse is if players complain about it, because then it seems like the athlete is too weak to handle the pressure. Chase Utley didn’t come...

Could the Nationals Pursue a Trade for Chase Utley?

I had written an article not too long ago about the Nationals moving Zimmerman to first base and bringing Rendon up to play third base.

I still feel that Rendon at second base is a waste of a great arm, and feel there is another answer for our Espinosa problem. Chase Utley will be a Free...

Rumors: Phillies' Chase Utley could be a trade chip in July

Not surprising to most, the Phillies may look to start trading some of the players they can get the most value for in return this season.  Some of those players that stand out as trade candidates are the ones with contracts expiring at the end of this season - like Chase Utley.  If Utley can continue performing well, he will make for a nice trade target come July.
