Newsbreakers

October 31, 2009

Phillies' beat writer Andy Martino is reporting that Greg Dobbs will be available for Game 3 of the World Series Saturday night. Dobbs missed Game 2 due to an illness.

Our View:

Dobbs reportedly had a fever that reached 102 degrees, but he is feeling much better today. He will be available off the bench for the Phils tonight, and will be so for the rest of the series.

October 29, 2009

Greg Dobbs is not expected to play in tonight's Game 2 of the World Series at Yankee Stadium while dealing with the flu, according to MLB beat writer Todd Zolecki's twitter page.

Our View:

Dobbs is a left-handed reserve, and is yet to chip in any hits over four plate appearances in the playoffs.

September 16, 2009

Greg Dobbs (calf strain) has been activated from the 15-day disabled list.

Our View:

Dobbs can now resume his role as utilityman/pinch-hitter extraordinaire for Philadelphia.

August 27, 2009

The Philadelphia Daily News reports that Greg Dobbs is set to begin a rehab program in Clearwater, Fla.

Our View:

Dobbs has been diagnosed with a minor calf strain after injuring himself in a game against the Mets on August 21st. He will be eligible to rejoin the team on September 6th, assuming all goes well with his rehab.

August 23, 2009

Greg Dobbs has been placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained calf.

Our View:

Miguel Cairo has been recalled to take his place. Dobbs is batting .257 with five home runs in limited playing time this season.

March 25, 2009

Greg Dobbs indicated that he is not fully recovered from his hamstring ailment and is expected to miss another 2-3 days, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Our View:

Dobbs is a solid hitter with pop in his bat, but his fantasy value will be limited while serving as a backup at third base. He should be left for deeper NL-only leagues.

January 16, 2009

Greg Dobbs re-signed with the Phillies on Friday avoiding arbitration, according to the Denver Post. The deal was a two-year, $2.5 million contract.

Our View:

Dobbs was a capable bench player for the Phillies in 2008, batting .301 with nine home runs and 40 RBIs and could see increased playing time in 2009 as the club has been looking to upgrade offensively at third base. He only had five fewer home runs than starter Pedro Feliz in about half the at-bats.
