Discussion Question: Will Roy Oswalt’s Injury Allow The Rest of the East to Catch Up to Philly?

Steve O Speak

Roy Oswalt will be out now till at least August, and puts a serious dent into the Phillies four Aces strategy. Now the question becomes will it be enough to slow down the Phillies, so that the Braves catch them in the standings?

My take is no, as they still have 3 top pitchers, and one of the best offenses in the game, but it does put a chink in their armor overall. This will make it even more pressing for Philly to add a right-handed bench bat (or two) and a reliever by the July 31st trade deadline.

What do you think? Could Oswalt’s injury send Philly reeling?
