If pitching is gold, the Philadelphia Phillies should have plenty of worth in 2012. With a rotation that still stars Cliff Lee, Roy Halladay and Cole Hamels, plus a bullpen now anchored by Jonathan Papelbon, the Phillies are blessed with lively arms expected to lead a charge into the postseason.
Those arms assemble on Saturday, when Phillies pitchers and catchers report to spring training in Clearwater, Florida. A look at the active roster of Philadelphia pitchers and catchers follows.
