When I wrote about Freddy Galvis a year ago, I suggested that his likely place in Phillies history was as the shortstop space-filler between franchise icon Jimmy Rollins and rising badass J.P. Crawford. That’s still his likely fate, though there’s an added dimension now: with Ryan Howard and Carlos Ruiz gone, Galvis is the current longest tenured Phillie. In fact, it’s not even close: after Freddy (debut: April 5, 2012), the next guys are Cesar Hernandez, Luis Garcia and Cameron Rupp, all in 2013.
