the Phillies could surprise some people in September
and play spoiler for some teams’ playoff hopes.
Lenny Dykstra is back this season after missing all
of 1998, but he is already ailing this spring and will
probably not make opening day. Look for Dykstra to
be dealt to a contender who needs a solid substitute
later in the season.

FLORIDA
MARLINS
92-70; 2nd in NL East; World Series Champion
First-to-worst. What a joke. So much for battling
to defend your World Series championship, why not
just hock the trophy in a deal for another one of your
star players.
Not only was Florida not even one of the five best
teams in base
ball last season,
but they aren’t
even going to al
low the league
the chance to
prove it. The
Marlins were
built for one
reason, and
theysucceeded.
But now they
are in trouble.
It was no se
cret Florida was
going to break
up its team af
ter 1997, cham
pionship or not,
and what they
have left won’t
even get them a
winning record,
let alone a playoff berth.
What Florida does have, however, is a stellar group
of young players either on its roster or in the minors.
They won’t produce this season, but the future looks
bright in Miami.
Florida rode the coat tails of baseball’s second-best
pitching staff last season, but this year’s probable ro
tation has less combined innings pitched in the Ma
jors than most teams’ No. 3 starter has in one season.
Important Additions: IB DerrekLee.
Big Losses: OF Moises Alou; RHP Kevin Brown; LHP
Mark Leiter; RHP Robb Nen; 1B Jeff Conine; OF Devon
White; IB Darren Daulton.
Projected Record: 77-85; 5th in NL East.

recommend TIAA-CREF SRAs. SRAs are tax-
deferred annuities that can help you build additional
assets — money that can make the difference between
living and living ire// in retirement.
Contributions to SRAs are conveniently deducted
from your salary on a pretax basis. The result? More
money invested. Fewer taxes now. And since inv estment
earnings are tax deferred until you receive them as
income, the money you don't send to Washington can
work even harder for you.
What else do SRAs offer/ A full range of investment
choices, a helpful loan feature, and the financial expertise
