May 13 -- ROMERO'S SCHEDULE; LINEUP

BY SCOTT LAUBER

J.C. Romero returned to the Phillies' clubhouse today. Pretty soon, he'll return to the bullpen, too.

Barring any rainouts, Romero's 50-game suspension will end June 3 in San Diego. According to Ruben Amaro Jr., he will begin a minor-league rehab assignment Monday (May 18). He will remain in the minors until his suspension ends, and he'll pitch for either Lehigh Valley, Reading or Lakewood, whichever is home when he needs to pitch.

***
Joe Torre has been asked to be an All-Star coach by Charlie Manuel. Manuel was an All-Star coach for Torre in 2002.

Tonight's lineup, same as last night's. Hey, why change what's working?
CF Shane Victorino
2B Chase Utley
RF Jayson Werth
1B Ryan Howard
SS Jimmy Rollins
LF Raul Ibanez
3B Pedro Feliz
C Carlos Ruiz
LHP Jamie Moyer (going for career victory No. 250)
