Sure things for the position players
- Kendall
- Rivera
- Fielder
- Durham
- Weeks
- Hardy
- Counsell
- Hall
- Hart (vomit)
- Cameron
- Braun
Sure thing for pitchers:
- Sabathia
- Suppan
- Gallardo
- Bush
- McClung
- Shouse
- Gagne
- Mota
- Torres
So, that gives us 5 spots to play with. Lets say they go with a 12 man pitching staff. Is it possible to dress Todd Coffey in Ben Sheets' jersey?
- Villanueva - I think he is a near lock.
- Stetter - Need that second lefty
- Parra - I am going with him over DiFelice only because you don't want to ruin the confidence of a young lefty starter who will play a big role with this team over the coming years.
- Gwynn - Ugh, it stinks that Kapler is out. He would be huge in the back up outfielder role. It at least would let Hart sit a bit. Gwynn can at least pinch run.
- Dillon - I would like to have Branyan here because you need that guy on your bench that you can send up if you need a homer. However, It sounds like Branyan is not healthy enough to play in the field. I don't know if you can limit your roster lie that in the playoffs.
That's my take.

I think someone can replace Riske on the roster, so that would be either Stetter or Coffey, I don't think you can take both (unless you can get an exemption due to Sheets' injury).
My take was that since Stetter was on the 40-man on Aug 31, he could replace an injured player, but since Coffey wasn't, he is not eligible to be on the playoff roster. I am not completely clear on this.
Coffey was added after the deadline so I don't think he's eligible for any reason; I think the same goes for Lamb.
Could you please also put the (vomit) next to Joe Dillon?
DeFelice could come in handy too as he's essentially a RH equivalent to Shouse. I'd rather have him over Dillon.
Ummmm...Carlos isn't a lock?
Coffey isn't available.
I think Defilice is in...and then it will come down to between Parra & Stetter...with Stetter probably being the odd man out.
After that...no Joe Dillon please. He's worthless. Seriously.
I would not be surprise if Vinny makes it over Dillon. What about the staff, I would guess it goes Bush, CC, Suppan, Gallardo or Bush, CC
Don't they make the 25 man roster on September 1st or august 31st?
the roster is already set I believe
Derrick Turnbow
It looks like we're all a little rusty when it comes to our knowledge of the playoff roster rules.
Will Jenksy be on the Phil's roster?
