Playing right field and batting sixth, Jesus Christ

By now you probably know that the biggest Phillies news from yesterday was not Brad Lidge's first pitches from the mound since undergoing surgery, nor was it that the entire team was checked in and ready to go down in Clearwater. Heck it wasn't even the fact that Chan Ho Park signed wiht the Yankees.

This was the hot topic yesterday...



Jayson Werth, who is a debating point already in the final year of his contract, stole the show yesterday when he showed up with his new best friend (his hair). How quick were Phillies fans to jump on the beard's band wagon?

You tell me .

But the important thing to remember is that the entire team is now in spring training and getting ready for the 2010 season. Can you feel the excitement yet? I know I can!
