Philadelphia Phillies: 4 "Benchwarmers" the Phillies Should Take a Look at

Sunday, 19 June 2011

Just like Matt Stairs stated in his press conference after his moon shot in Game 4 of the 2008 NLCS, he was just looking to get his "ass-hammered." In other words, he was looking for a slap in the behind to signify that he did something good.

In 2008, Greg Dobbs was an important piece to the Phillies World Series run. He hit over .300 that season. Pinch-hitting benchwarmer Matt Stairs single-handidly won Game 4 of the 2008 NLCS. Geoff Jenkins... another solid reserve.

In the 1980's Greg Gross accumulated 143 career pinch-hits, 117 with the Phillies. His 143 career pinch-hits ranks fifth on the all-time list.

The Phillies' current bench... OF Ben Francisco, INF Wilson Valdez, RES Michael Martinez, PH Ross Gload and C Dane Sardinha... is not exactly the best.

They need some pop off the pine. There's a reason why a certain game took 19-innings to complete earlier on in the season.
