Phillies bullpen?!
Another Brad Lidge appearance. Another blown save. Anybody surprised?
Memo to Charlie Manuel:
You have two weeks to figure out who your closer is and it ain't Brad Lidge. That thinking is SO 2008. You don't go into the playoffs with a closer with a 7.48 ERA. You just don't. 2008 was 2008.
You should be well into "tryouts" for this position by now. You gotta think "on the fly" here, you know.
Get moving!

I really hope they ride that dying horse into the postseason. I hate the Phillies and I hated Lidge last year simply because he was so great. I don't wanna be all 2008 or anything, so I am glad to see that Lidge is not only human, but a really crappy pitcher...
I say give him another chance. Or ten. Maybe have him start.
Don't give up Charlie! The Braves are only 4 back....
I hope they're confused right up until the point that the Dodgers beat them in the NLCS.
