Chase Utley, Philadelphia's all star second basemen has yet to play during Spring Training 2011. Charlie Manuel initially said Utley was sore from off season workouts. Later it was reported Utley knee was injured and was given a cortisone shot. Chase Utley has a history in recent years of acquiring nagging injuries. Where do the Philadelphia Phillies go from here? Wilson Valdez the utility infielder will probably fill in like he did last season for Utley and Rollins. How much time will Utley miss? No one truly knows what will happen next. It's simply a wait and see process at this point, nevertheless this doesn't look good. Could the Phillies be forced to make a move at somepoint, especially if the offensive struggles? Philadelphia has already loss Jason Werth to free agency, he'll be playing in Washington, without Utley, Ryan Howard will need protection. The Phillies are build to win now, GM Ruben Amaro has some decisions to make, along with Utley concerning his health.
