April 17 -- WEEK 3 AUDIOFILE

Not to distract from the in-game updates in the post directly below, but as I said we would, Camden Courier-Post beat writer Mike Radano and I taped our weekly Phillies audiocast shortly before today's game started. This week, Mike and I discussed the value of a healthy Jimmy Rollins, Ryan Howard's need to step up while Rollins is out, and the big weekend series against the Mets, which starts tomorrow night with the dream matchup of Cole Hamels and Johan Santana (more on that later).
