The Clearwater Threshers are the Phillies high-A minor league affiliate and tonight, they’ll be getting prime time billing on Comcast Sports Net in Philadelphia.
↵Why?
↵It just so happens that there was a confluence of events that happens to make that Threshers game something that Phillies fans are going to really want to see. For one, the big club has an off day. But specifically, the it’s the Threshers’ lineup that’s going to be interesting.
↵Chase Utley, Roy Oswalt and Carlos Ruiz will all be making rehab starts for the team tonight. In the case of Oswalt and Ruiz, if they look and feel good after tonight they could be straight back with the big club. For Utley, it will be great just to see him on the field again.
↵The game airs tonight at 7pm on Comcast Sportsnet. The Threshers will be taking on the Palm Beach Cardinals.
