The Phillies have the most talented team in baseball on paper, but they are aware they must prove it on the field. "But things don't always work perfectly. Injuries happen. Players slump," MLB.com's Todd Zolecki writes. "Other teams get hot at the right time. But the Phillies believe if everything goes the way they hope, they should be playing deep into October and hoisting the World Series championship trophy for the third time in franchise history. It all starts next week in Clearwater, Fla., where the club holds Spring Training."
