Proefrock would not say whether the Phillies would have pursued Zambrano if Halladay had not gotten hurt, but he mentioned that the team had tried to sign pitchers with major-league experience during the offseason to bolster its triple-A depth. One of the players he said the Phillies pursued was Scott Kazmir. On Tuesday, Kazmir was the losing pitcher in the Phillies' 6-2 victory over the Indians.
