According to Ken Mandel at MLB.com, OF Geoff Jenkins has decided to go to the Phillies, accepting a two-year, $13 million contract with a vesting option third season that could bring the deal to $20 million. The deal is pending a physical. Jenkins is in Philadelphia completing that process. Geoff has long been on the Phillies radar.. even more so since CF Aaron Rowand signed with the Giants. Last season with the Brewers, Jenkins hit 21 home runs to go along with a .255 AVG. The Phillies lineup will now look like this.
SS Jimmy Rollins
CF Shane Victorino
2B Chase Utley
1B Ryan Howard
LF Pat Burrell
RF Geoff Jenkins
3B Greg Dobbs
C Carlos Ruiz
According to many, that could be the most potent lineup in the National League.
