Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Jayson Werth showed up at Spring Training sporting a great new beard. He also took a minute to speak with Philly.com’s Andy Martino about this season and his contract, which runs out after this year.
Does he see himself as a Jason Bay or Matt Holliday with those types of [...]
