It was a short week this time out, as the Phillies only played four games, thanks to the All Star Break. In those four games, the Phils went 2-2, but did enough to pull back into second place in the National League East. There was one player that stood head and shoulders above the rest, as his return from Anaheim and the All Star Game has been nothing but excellent so far. This week's Phillie of the Week is:
Ryan Howard
The All Star first baseman started the second half of the season like a man possessed. This past week, Howard hit .385 with three home runs and six RBI. If he can continue that pace, and the rest of this team can get their act together, the Phillies still have a shot at a fourth straight National League East crown.
