I will try to add more verbiage later, but for now two quick tables:

- Update of key stats of the Phillies to date vs. early 2011 (pre Utley's return)

- As they start a new series, a comparison of those same stats between the Phils and Diamondbacks

Phillies: 2012 vs. Early 2011

- Isolated Power has dropped below the Pirates for last place in the NL
- I've added Home Runs to the list, and, not surprisingly, the Phillies are near the bottom, and 43% behind last year's early pace

Phillies vs. Diamondbacks

- The D-backs lead the NL in pitches per plate appearance, and have a BB% near 10%

Milestones

Jimmy Rollins has reached 3 milestones already in the early going:
- his 11th single of the year (April 15th) tied him with Mike Schmidt (1,219) for 5th on the Phillies' all-time list
- his 1st Sacrifice Fly (April 19th) was the 43rd of his career, and tied him for 5th on the Phillies list with Bob Boone, Von Hayes, and Mike Lieberthal
- his 4th walk (April 21st) tied him with Greg Luzinski for 10th on the Phillies list
Next for Rollins:
- he needs 18 more total bases (36 for the year) to become the 4th Philie in history to reach 3,000
