Hernandez may be re-emerging as the top candidate to close for the Phillies, Ryan Lawrence of the Philly Voice reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Pete Mackanin said Monday that he is still trying to figure out "the best way to go" with his closing situation. He also said he won't name a closer until he is 100 percent sure about putting someone in that role. That could lead to the Phillies opening the year with a committee. Hernandez and Dalier Hinojosa look like the top two choices to close at the moment. Andrew Bailey, who was once considered the front runner for the job, might now be looking at a trip to Triple-A at the start of the season.
