Posts massive performance SaturdayGosselin went 3-for-3 with a pair of home runs, three RBI and a walk in a win over Miami on Saturday.
ImpactGosselin was a question mark to even make the club heading into the season, but he justified the Phillies' decision to give him a roster spot with a career-best performance in his first game of the campaign. Serving as the team's designated hitter, Gosselin broke a 1-1 tie with a two-run homer in the sixth inning and followed that with a solo shot in the eighth. The power display was certainly unexpected given the fact that Gosselin had previously hit only seven homers in 597 career at-bats. Saturday's effort may earn the 31-year-old more playing time, but fantasy managers would be wise to resist pouring FAAB dollars into acquiring him on the basis of a one-game outburst.

Excellent in Philadelphia debutWheeler earned the win versus Miami on Saturday, hurling seven innings and giving up one run on five hits and two walks while striking out four.
ImpactToeing the mound less than a week after his wife gave birth to the couple's first child, Wheeler was in complete control throughout his seven innings, scattering five singles and a pair of walks while throwing 57 of 87 pitches for strikes. His only real trouble came in the fifth inning when the Marlins put three consecutive runners on base with a pair of singles and a walk, but Wheeler emerged from the threat allowing only one run by inducing an inning-ending double play. After some initial uncertainty about playing out the season, the 30-year-old now appears determined to take the ball for Philadelphia every five turns. His next start is scheduled for Thursday on the road against the loaded Yankees offense.
