| Kratz not taking job for granted |
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com (2/11/13) Although Erik Kratz is expected to open the season as the Phillies' starting catcher while Carlos Ruiz serves a 25-game suspension, Kratz is taking nothing for granted, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer. "I've never had this kind of opportunity, but there is nothing set in stone," Kratz said. "Until somebody writes it in stone and that first day when my name is in the lineup . . . that's when I will have cracked an opening-day roster. Until then, I'm going to take it like any other year where I'm trying to win a spot."

Erik Kratz draws start Thursday
|
| With Carlos Ruiz serving a PED suspension for the season's first 25 games, a Fantasy owner could fill the hole with Ruiz' direct replacement, Erik Kratz, who hit .248 with nine home runs in 141 at-bats for the Phillies last season. Kratz, 32, has shown flashes of power in the minors, with four seasons of double-digit home runs since 2007, despite only getting more than 353 at-bats once. And he won't kill you with his average, which could float around .250. As a cheap source of power who will play a lot over the season's first month, Kratz can be rostered in NL-only leagues, with the understanding that he's waiver wire material come May.
