they are as deep as anyone in offense. Not in pitching.
Rollins, Vicotorino, Utley, Howard, Werth, Ibanez, Ruiz is as deep as it gets.
The problem is that only Utley, Werth and Ruiz stepped up. Got nothing from Rollins, Victorino, Ibanez and Howard. Of course Howard will get the most made out of this but if we get production from the other 3 and not howard we would have been fine. Its not like the Yanks were in shutdown mode.
