Chase Utley was out for nearly the whole pre-season.
Utley has been out with tendinitis.
The Phillies are interested in looking for free-agents because. Utley is fully recovered from the injury so a replacement is no longer needed.
Non-roster free agents Josh Barfield and Pete Orr and Rule 5 draft pick Michael Martinez have all received extensive playing time this spring in Utley's absence.
The Phillies are looking at David Eckstein and he is still out there. David is a shortstop that the phillies have been looking at for not to long.
While I wish this were true, Chase is still expected to start the season on the disabled list and the Phils may consider picking up the former Mets 2nd baseman Castillo, at least this is what I just read on the Phillies website.
