Chase Utley has been making the media rounds in full force this week, which is odd because it’s Chase Utley. Utley hasn’t backed down from any line of questioning from what I can tell. He thinks the Phillies can be contenders this year, steroid-users like Alex Rodriguez are a disappointment, and the Fightins’ new TV contract is “a lot of money.”
Utley even took to Twitter on Tuesday to field questions from fans, which he did as ably as turning a double play with Jimmy Rollins. I hope Chase got a chance to answer all of your queries today, because it doesn’t sound like he has any intention of getting an account of his own.
I'm going with Cody Asche. RT @avalonbryan Who on this team has a bust-out surprise season? #ChaseChat
