According to a report, the Phillies have not decided on their World Series roster, Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said Brett Myers is a great consideration. The club said they will not make their roster decision until the American League Championship Series is over and whether their opponent will be the Yankees or Angels.
Myers (in phillies jersey) had a spot on the Phillies' roster for their Division Series before leaving off the NLCS roster, which was attributed to a strained lateral muscle on his throwing shoulder. However, he threw a simulated game on Tuesday and appeared to be recovered. Finally the decision on whether Meyers will be selected or not could depend on whether it will carry 11 or 12 pitchers on its roster. It is certain that Cliff Lee will start Game 1 of the World Series with Cole Hamels and Pedro Martinez to follow accordingly. Other starters, Joe Blanton and J.A. Happ , will likely begin the series in the Phillies' bullpen.
