Player Notes

March 15, 2010
Brad Lidge (knee, elbow) is schedules to throw live batting practice today and to pitch in a minor league game on Thursday, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Our View:It's still uncertain whether or not Lidge will be ready to go by Opening Day, though he isn't expected to miss much more than the first week at the very most. Ryan Madson will serve as the closer until Lidge is ready.

March 10, 2010
Brad Lidge (knee, elbow) threw a short session of batting practice on Wednesday morning, according to the Delaware News Journal's Scott Lauber.

Our View:The session consisted of 21 pitches to Wilson Valdez and Chris Duffy. Lidge does appear to be making progress in his recovery from knee and elbow surgery this offseason. While he still may be out on Opening Day, it looks like he could be back on the field shortly after.

February 22, 2010
Brad Lidge got through his first bullpen session since knee and elbow surgeries without any physical setbacks on Monday, according to the Philadelphia Daily News.

Our View:This is certainly a positive sign for Lidge in his recovery, though it remains very much up in the air as to whether or not he'll be ready by the season opener. We'd still expect him to miss the first week or two, with Ryan Madson in position to close until Lidge is ready to do so.

February 17, 2010
Brad Lidge (knee/elbow) thinks he may be ready to pitch by Opening Day despite the fact that he's two weeks behind schedule, according to MLB.com's Todd Zolecki.

Our View:So far, reports on Lidge's health have been a bit conflicting. At this point, it seems more like wishful thinking from Lidge to expect to be ready by the season opener, though it's nice to know that he shouldn't miss too much time after that. Ryan Madson will serve as the Phillies' closer until Lidge is healthy enough to assume the job.

February 14, 2010
Brad Lidge (knee/elbow) has yet to throw off a mound, according to the Delaware News Journal. "If spring training goes completely normal and I can't make up any ground, then I would imagine starting the season two weeks late," said Lidge.

Our View:With the start of the season a month and a half away, it's looking increasingly unlikely that Lidge will be back for the start of it. Expect Ryan Madson to open the year as Philly's closer, though Lidge still does not seem to have to worry about his job security once he's able to get back to full health.
