BY SCOTT LAUBERCLEARWATER, Fla. -- Chase Utley's every step has been chronicled since his hip surgery in November. But we haven't heard much about Pedro Feliz. Well, Feliz reported to camp this morning, a full day before the first full-squad workout (so did Raul Ibanez, Shane Victorino, Greg Dobbs, even Jimmy Rollins), and said his lower back is feeling better since his November surgery to repair a herniated disk.
But Feliz also hasn't started swinging a bat or fielding ground balls, which means his last swing was the World Series-clinching RBI single in Game 5. Mostly, he has been doing conditioning drills and throwing back home in the San Francisco area. Feliz said he expects to resume normal baseball activities "any time soon," but he said he definitely plans to be ready by the season-opener April 5.
