Manager Pete Mackanin said he intends to give Goeddel increased playing time, Matt Gelb of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports. "I've made a choice to play him," Mackanin said. "I'm going to give him a chance to at least get something going."

EDGE Analysis

Goeddel started in left field Friday for the third straight game, his longest streak of playing time this season. He went 0-for-3 and is hitting just .147 with 11 strikeouts and no walks in 34 at-bats this season. If he could start making some contact or drawing a few walks there might be a little value here. Goeddel stole 28 bases last season in the minors.
