“He'll probably play two of the three, kind of work him in,” Manuel said. “He hadn't been playing a lot either kind of like Utley. I have to talk to him every day and see what he's doing and see where he's at and things like that. Plus, we'll get to see him in the game and see how good he can move and what's going on.”

I didn't see the game, but I heard on Howard's first hit he ran out of gas about 15 feet from home base.

Hmmmm...it's 2012 let's see if we can find any digital media from that game

Somewhat inconclusive but starting with a null hypothesis, I don't see anything that would make me think that Howard could hardly run to first

Maybe it was his second hit. And he looked gassed getting to first.

Good thing this wasn't a close play at the plate.

From everything I have read he is just a basket case right now. The pressure of performing well this year for one shot at a big contract just got to him.

It's new era and all the other teams in the NL are better. There is no more domination of the Phils like you saw in 2009/2010, it's a new time
