Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro admitted that the patella tendinitis in Chase Utley's right knee probably will never go away and he's not sure Utley will ever again reach his previously-elite production. "I don't know if it's behind him," Amaro said of Utley's knee injury. "Is he going to be a 30-home run, 110-RBI guy and hit .300? I don't know that. I hope he is. That will help us. Whatever we get out of Chase is going to help us. I know he is going to strive to get to the point where he can maximize his numbers and his production." Utley wound up with a .259/.344/.425 batting line to go along with 11 homers and 44 RBI over 398 at-bats this season, as his production and number of games played slid for the second straight year. He'll turn just 29 in December, but it's certainly fair to question whether his best days are behind him.
