Thu, 11 Apr 2013 23:32:01 -0700 Philadelphia Phillies OF John Mayberry Jr. is 5-for-19 on the young season with three doubles, a homer and four walks, but Phillies manager Charlie Manuel plans on continuing to rotate OFs Mayberry, Laynce Nix and Ezequiel Carrera until OF Delmon Young (ankle) is ready.
Mon, 01 Apr 2013 15:29:02 -0700 Philadelphia Phillies OF John Mayberry Jr. is starting over OF Laynce Nix in the outfield on opening day Monday, April 1, because manager Charlie Manuel likes Mayberry's approach against Atlanta Braves SP Tim Hudson. Manuel's decision on the platoon in right field will be made based on matchups, the type of pitcher starting and recent performances.
Fantasy Tip: Both players will cannabalize each other's PT, making them only valuable in deep NL leagues. Mayberry should be your first target of the two.
Tue, 05 Mar 2013 14:10:22 -0800 Philadelphia Phillies OF Darin Ruf struck out three times in an exhibition game against the Dominican Republic Tuesday, March 5, and he also continued to struggle with his defense in the outfield. Ruf is currently 3-for-23 with one extra-base hit this spring. "That's probably got something to do with his hitting," manager Charlie Manuel said. "He's trying too hard right now and things are not going good for him. He'll be all right. He is going to get some more hits. He's fine. He's not going to go his whole life with all collars." OFs John Mayberry Jr. and Laynce Nix are an alternative to Ruf in left field to start the season.
Tue, 22 Jan 2013 12:07:15 -0800 Philadelphia Phillies OF Delmon Young will join an inexperienced outfield picture in 2013 that includes OFs Domonic Brown, Darin Ruf, John Mayberry Jr. and Laynce Nix. Brown figures to win a job outright, but the other spots are likely up for grabs.
Wed, 09 Jan 2013 00:16:21 -0800 The Philadelphia Phillies will likely enter spring training with an outfield consisting of Ben Revere, Domonic Brown, John Mayberry Jr., Darin Ruf, and Laynce Nix. "We're likely going with what we've got," general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said. Amaro may change his mind for a low-risk veteran outfielder to join the system, as the club still has about $7 million of its projected $178 million payroll to spend.
Fri, 04 Jan 2013 12:59:28 -0800 The Philadelphia Phillies continue to search for a veteran corner outfielder. Philadelphia has been going after free-agent OF Scott Hairston (Mets) and are pursuing a trade for Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim OF Vernon Wells. The Angels would need to eat most of Wells' remaining salary for the trade to be a fit. If no more outfielders are acquired, the team will enter spring training with OFs Domonic Brown, John Mayberry Jr., Darin Ruf and Laynce Nix on the corner spots.
Tue, 11 Sep 2012 15:22:49 -0700 Philadelphia Phillies OF Nate Schierholtz has started once since returning from the disabled list Sept. 1 with OFs Domonic Brown and John Mayberry Jr. seeing more playing time. Schierholtz has split time with OFs Juan Pierre and Laynce Nix, but now 1B Darin Ruf will also see starts in the outfield in the final few weeks of the regular season.
Mon, 13 Aug 2012 14:41:25 -0700 Philadelphia Phillies OF Nate Schierholtz (toe) will miss three to four weeks at least. OF Laynce Nix could see time in center field, and OF Domonic Brown will mostly be used in right field.
Mon, 13 Aug 2012 09:43:35 -0700 Philadelphia Phillies OF John Mayberry Jr. will likely take over in center field with OF Nate Schierholtz (toe) on the disabled list. OF Domonic Brown will remain in right field and OFs Juan Pierre, Laynce Nix, Michael Martinez and Hector Luna will likely platoon in right field. Brown can also start in right on occasion.
Sun, 29 Jul 2012 09:09:33 -0700 Philadelphia Phillies OF Hunter Pence is not in the lineup against the Atlanta Braves Sunday, July 29. C Carlos Ruiz (foot) will start behind the plate, with INF Kevin Frandsen playing third base and OF Laynce Nix playing right field. |
