What is the story about?
Much news out of springtime is good. This player is debuting a new pitch. This player’s swing is looking good. This player is in—say it with me now— The Best Shape of His Life (TM).
But not all of it is. Yesterday’s news that Johan Rojas is looking at a suspension for a positive PED test is decidedly in the negative department. Unless his appeal should change MLB’s mind, Rojas may be out until June, and ineligible for the playoffs. Rojas figured to get significant playing time for the Phillies this
year. Without him, the Phillies’ already tenuous outfield situation gets even more so. That makes today’s question obvious, if unpleasant:
What should the Phillies do without Rojas?
