We're just putting "quotes" around everything "today."

There are two word pairings I never like to see: burning and sensation, and Utley and specialist. This is one of those two.

via Philly Sports Daily:

He did not fly with the team to Wisconsin and will be seen by Dr. Rob Franks, the concussion specialist at the Rothman Institute.

“He didn’t really feel 100 percent after getting hit,” Amaro said. “He was OK, then afterwards he started feeling a little fuzzy. We took the precaution of getting him out of the game.”

 

The Phillies have activated Jimmy Rollins in his place, but J-Roll™ said "don't expect to see me playing." The Phillies will likely use him in an emergency role only.
