Revere said he is able to do his typical offseason workout routine now that he no longer has screws in his right ankle, the Philadelphia Inquirer reports. "I can do everything," Revere said. "I can do power lifting. I couldn't even squat last year. I'm squatting 400 pounds now. Last year, my hamstring [shut] down, my quads were weak. Now, I'm getting all my strength back."
Analysis:
Revere played through pain for half of last season, as the screws that were in his ankle from a 2013 surgery were pressing on his nerves. They were removed early in the offseason. The 26-year-old is set to open next season as the Phillies' starting center fielder.
