The Phillies have big decisions to make and not much time left to make them - they have until Friday to declare which players to add to their 40-man roster. These aren't headline-grabbing decisions and most fans won't know or care what happens, but you better believe the Phillies front office cares.
Just how big are these decisions? Big enough that the Phillies were willing to eat up to nearly $10 million of Matt Harrison's salary just to save one roster spot. If the Phillies kept Harrison on the 40-man through Spring Training, their insurance policy was such that they would have owed just 25% of his $13.
