I would never move Phillips from 2B. Yes he would probably make his spectacular plays regardless, but could you imagine him trying to do one of his crazy throws from SS?
Utley at 3B allows us to move Frazier to LF. Then he can move to 3B on Utley's off days and we can throw Heisey/Paul in LF.

“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”

Frazier played in LF last year and if I recall he made a few good plays there. I wouldn't call his defense at 3B this year spectacular. I can recall a few times when balls have gone right through his legs, though he hasn't made any errant throws like Zimmerman from the Nats usually does.
Offensively, I think the move makes sense. Not to mention, our LF defense is not the best to begin with.

Like I said from the beginning, I knew it would be a long shot anyways.

David Wright and Parnell for Cingrani and Stephenson or Hamilton (their pick--they can have em both if they kick in some payroll relief).

I liked the idea of trying to aquire Aoki and KRod that was mentioned a few weeks ago. Adds great depth to BP and closer role and we find a starting LF who frequently puts the ball in play and rarely SO.

Put Utley at 1B and finally move Votto to LF....
Bum
The utley and Rollins are kinda cool till you realize the Phils are very much in the wild card hunt.
