Rough 5-7 start for the Phillies

Pros:
1) Kazmir off to a great start 2-0 ERA of 1, which he'd go deeper than 6 innings per start but ohh well. Lotzkar had 1 good start since getting healthy

2) Bergmann is doing a great job as the closer so far, no transition troubles

3) No long term injuries during the first sim

Cons
1) 3 Promotions, got 3 wins, and still no fan boost...thats kinda depressing
2) Sheets and Hill having a hard time adjusting to pen
3) Michael Taylor looks like the protypical AAAA player

I like the start. King and Reimold are tearing it up. I wish the top of the lineup would do the same though. Also Detroit doing so poorly is a bonus

Would love a power bat to slide behind Moustakas and Yoshiyuki. Doesnt have to be an absolute beast, just someone to keep pitchers honest.
