It also depends on how well Aaron Boone does in the spring I think. Phillips is an infielder by trade. He's not going to take jobs from Giambi, Soriano, or Jeter. Boone isn't a hitter so much as a defensive 2nd baseman converted to 3rd base, which is Phillips position. Phillips problem is he plays for Stienbrenner, who doesn't normally like to start minor leages unless they are from Japan or he's flat out of options.
