The question with Chase Utley the past few springs has been about the health of his knees. While he said they are fine at this time, he is nursing a sore ankle he turned in January during a workout. Utley said his ankle is improving, but not quite where it needs to be yet. Utley also mentioned that while he doesn't want to leave Philadelphia, he would listen to trade offers, but didn't think much would change (CSNPhilly.com)

Fantasy Impact:

Utley played in 155 games last season and is bound to get more days off this season, as he clearly struggled after the end of May. The 36-year old was still one of the top offensive second basemen in baseball last season. While not the same player he was in him prime, expect Utley to continue to put up solid all around numbers this season.
