Split Squad Games Rained Out Today

Sorry Phillies fans, no baseball today. Due to the monsoon-like rains in Florida, both split squad games have been cancelled with no make up date. But worry not, the Phils will be back tomorrow taking on the Twins in Clearwater, when it is supposed to be clear with no (falling) water.

J.A. Happ will start against Minnesota. Feel free to use this space as a spot to reflect on what has happened in Spring Training thus far. Here are a few story lines:

GOOD: Cole Hamels, Roy Halladay, Antonio Bastardo, David Herndon

SO-SO: Phillippe Aumont, Shane Victorino’s shoulder, Brad Lidge’s recovery, JC Ramirez

BAD: J.C Romero’s recovery, Jose Contreras, Ryan Vogelsong’s ERA
