The Phillies...

That leaves the only quality RHP in the bullpen as closer Jonathan Papelbon...
Arms Race: Phillies bullpen a mixup

Phils Bring Back Gosewich, Sanches; Add Elarton, Valdes
The Phillies brought back a few familiar faces today as the signings of Tuffy Gosewich and Brian Sanches were announced.Gosewich, 28, was an 11th round pick for the Phils in 2005.
