Chase Utley makes first official rehab start

When will Chase Utley be back? Well, we have a much better idea on how to answer that question. After he made his first official rehab start today for the Clearwater Threshers, it opens up the 20 day window that he can make minor league rehab appearances before he has to be activated to the major league roster. Now there are some exceptions to that rule, he can take a 5 day timeout to that window, and if there are major complications he could shut it down completely. But everything is pointing that he will be ready to go soon. The 20 days would bring him to the end of this month, May 30th to be activated, but could always be sooner.

Tonight he went 1-4, with a single batting DH. Last weekend he played a few extended spring games. Utley reports that the knee is feeling good, but they are taking things cautiously. Even if everything is perfect physically for Chase, he hasn't played a single game all year or spring training save tonight's appearance. He needs time to get back into game strength, speed, and timing before he can even think about jumping back into the middle of the lineup on the best team in baseball in the middle of the season.

Let's hope he can ramp up quickly and get back to the Phillies clubhouse in game shape asap.
