At least according to ESPN New York they are.

Adam Rubin reports that the Phillies are "the most likely spot for Maine."

Stop it, Rube (Amaro).

Do the Phillies really need another mediocre right-handed pitcher? They have Joe Blanton and Kyle Kendrick to round out the best rotation ever. Is more really necessary?

Maine is only moderately better than either of those two- Blanton has a better career ERA and WHIP- and he is coming off shoulder surgery. There are plenty of pinholes in the lineup that could be filled long before addresssing the need for another fifth starter.
