With the Phillies set to play their
first exhibition game Wednesday against Florida State, manager Charlie Manuel unveiled
his lineup card this afternoon. Manuel plans to rest veterans such as Chase
Utley and Placido Polanco in an attempt to lighten the spring workload.
John Mayberry Jr. will start at
first base and Domonic Brown will get the start in left field, hoping to start
the season on the big league roster. Newly acquired utility man Ty Wigginton
will start at third base with Polanco receiving the day off.
Don’t expect to see any of the
Phillies aces in a game like this, as right-hander Austin Hyatt will get the
start for the Phillies.
The game is scheduled for a 1:05 PM
start on Wednesday. On Saturday, the Phillies will kick off their Grapefruit
League season against the New York Yankees at home.
