When It Rains it Pours

Literally and figuratively.

News comes from Todd Zolecki at phillies.com/mlb.com that Raul Ibanez has been placed on the disabled list with a strained groin.  John Mayberry, Jr. has been recalled to take his place.

This injury and the ones to Scott Eyre and Brad Lidge are exactly the type of thing the Phillies were able to avoid last year when the stars were aligned properly.  And the sun came out on occasion too.
