"Signs continue to point toward Chase Utley making his big-league season debut Monday night against Cincinnati.

"He's getting close," manager Charlie Manuel said Saturday.

Utley was in the lineup for a fourth straight game at Single-A Clearwater on Saturday. Playing four days in a row was said to be his final minor-league test. Indications were he would rest Sunday and be evaluated. If he checks out, he would likely be in the Phillies lineup Monday night against Reds' righthander Bronson Arroyo. Utley is 4 for 9 with a homer in his career against Arroyo."
