Since this week was so short, and the Phillies only played three full games because of the All Star break and the postponed game last night, I had a tough choice for Phillie of the Week. Rather than go with one player, I decided that this week's Phillies of the Week are:
The All Stars: Ryan Howard, Chase Utley, Jayson Werth, Shane Victorino and Raul Ibanez
Though the American League won the All Star Game again, having five players make the team, with three of them starting, is a great feat. The entire starting outfield made the All Star team, becoming the first group in the National League to do that since 1972. If these five can keep up the pace during the second half of the season, this is a deep playoff team again.
