Former Milwaukee Brewer, Geoff Jenkins, was signed for two years by the Philadelphia Phillies. Jayson Werth and Geoff Jenkins will be manning right field in a platoon situation. Werth, himself, could not produce the offensive numbers that are demanded for a corner outfielder. Together, watch the right field for the Phillies to produce numbers around 20 HR and 80 RBI. These numbers are a slight improvement to what the Phillies had last year from the same position, and with this minor improvement, they’re right field position about equal to all the other teams in the National League East, and slightly better than the New York Mets. This is not an acquisition that will put their team over the top, but it is a marginal improvement. Other players they could look at on the free agent market are Emil Brown, Victor Diaz and Sammy Sosa.
