Ultey to return.

Chase Utley, with medical clearance from his doctor, will return to the Philadelphia Phillies lineup for tonight's game against the New York Mets. Utley is batting .336 with 17 homers and 82 RBIs this season. He's missed 28 games but is still 2nd in the NL in batting.

The Mets will have Paul La Duca who had been on the DL for 2 weeks when he re aggravated his hamstring. The Phillies are 6 games back in the division and 3 in the wild card, while they open up a 4-game series vs. the Mets which could decide their playoff fate.

Yeah, we deff need him back but we win the series we will get right back into the divison and Utley back will help. However if we lose this series say goodbye to the division and lets get the wild card

Mets fans, (me included) hope Utley won't continue his usual damage against the Mets in this four-game series, but he is one of the toughest outs in the MLB. -Kwass

Im not to worried about Utley as a Mets fan. He is a great player but its a little to late for Philly to think about the division title. They have to hope for the wild card.
