Another Andy Phillips article


This one is at MLB.com:

Phillips relies on his versatility

SARASOTA, Fla. -- Andy Phillips realized early on that versatility would be a key to him having a chance at career longevity.

That could serve him well as he fights for a spot on the Cincinnati bench. Phillips is one of three Reds in camp to have played every game this spring, and he's rarely in the same position two days in a row.

"If he's going to make this club, it's in his best interests to be versatile," manager Dusty Baker said. "We're pretty deep at first, pretty deep in the outfield. There's not a whole bunch of spots for him to play out there."

..."There are a couple of spots there that have pretty good competition," Baker said. "A lot depends on Gonzalez. His injury opened up a spot. I'm still weighing out the options. [Phillips] is in the mix, big time."

At least they didn't use that goofy photo of him with the towel on his head.

And it's nice to hear that his wife Bethany is doing well.
