Callaspo will start at second base and bat second Friday against the Phillies.

Analysis:

Callaspo will spell Jace Peterson at second base for what will be his third straight start. He will also bat in the two-hole, a spot in which Callaspo has had little success to this point (4-for-28), between Eric Young Jr. and Nick Markakis. The 32-year-old appears in line to continue seeing semi-regular time between second base and third.
