FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Decision day could be Sunday for the Phillies.
The front office will meet with manager Pete Mackanin and his coaching staff following a Grapefruit League game against the Pirates at Spectrum Field, where the organization could finalize its 25-man roster ahead of Opening Day, on April 3 in Cincinnati. There are three bench jobs and two bullpen jobs available.
Chris Coghlan will be among the players discussed, not only because he is a candidate to make the bench but because if he is not placed on the Major League roster by Sunday, he must be released upon his request or placed on the roster within 48 hours.
