Pitchers, catchers reporting that it’s not that warm down here

Though Phillies’ pitchers and catchers aren’t officially required to report until Thursday, many reported early on Wednesday that they were expecting things to be a little warmer than this.

“You just assume it would be warm in Florida, but it’s not,” Chad Durbin reported of Wednesday’s mid-50s temperatures. “It’s supposed to warm up into the high-50s tomorrow, so we’ll keep you posted on how things go with that.”

Phillies position players are expected to report next Monday about how awesome it is to see grass again.
