Brad Lidge earned his first save since June 1st on Sunday afternoon. He allowed a hit and a walk in the ninth inning, but a run did not cross the plate as the Phillies finished off the Blue Jays 5-4.
Our View: Lidge has had a tumultuous season to date, but has still recorded 14 saves. His ERA is still a depressing 7.57, but perhaps today's performance was the boost he needed to get back on track. We'll see.

Brad Lidge picked up his first save since returning from the disabled list on June 25, working his way around a hit and a walk on Sunday.
Analysis: Lidge was not at his sharpest again on Sunday, but was able to work his way out of a jam thanks in large part to a key pickoff of John McDonald who was caught trying to steal third base with none out. Sunday's save was the first since June 1 for Philly's scuffling ninth-inning man.

Our View: Lidge may not be at 100 percent yet, but he feels good enough to be back with the team. He should resume his role as the team's closer immediately, especially considering the struggles of fill-in Ryan Madson. Lidge should be activated immediately in all leagues so he is available as soon as possible.

Madson blows second save in Phils loss
Source (fanball.com)
(RP - phi) | 0 comments.
Ryan Madson blew his second save of the season on Tuesday night, and his first since taking over for the injured Brad Lidge, walking two and surrendering a run in the ninth inning against the Blue Jays. The Jays would go on to win 8-3 in 10 innings.
Our View: Madson has been lights out in 2009, posting a 2.16 ERA while striking out 37 and walking just 11. Tuesday night is likely nothing more than a bump in the road. He is an excellent option at closer while Lidge is out, and a very solid middle relief option in leagues with holds.

News: The Camden Courier-Post reports that Brad Lidge dispelled rumors that the knee injury that currently has him on the disabled list had anything to do with a comment he made following his team's World Series win that he almost injured his knee in the team's pileup celebration on the mound. "Underneath that pile, my knee definitely did feel like it was up around my head somehow, and for a couple seconds, I was a little worried," Lidge said Wednesday. "But everybody got off. I walked it off afterward. I wouldn't be able to have worked out all winter and all spring training and not have felt it at all, and all of a sudden have it come back, if that's what happened. That's definitely not what caused this." [...]

Brad Lidge was upset with the decision to place him on the 15-day DL, according to MLB.com. The closer also said he doesn't think he'll need much more than the 15 days for his knee to get back to 100 percent.
Our View: The article also speculates that he injured the knee during the initial World Series celebration, but Lidge says there's no truth to that. Ryan Madson will close games until Lidge is able to return.

With Phillies' closer Brad Lidge being placed on the 15-day DL on Tuesday, it appears as if Ryan Madson will assume the closer's role in Philadelphia in Lidge's absence. Madson has a 2.22 ERA on the season with 31 strikeouts in 28 innings pitched.
Our View: No announcement has been officially made, but it would appear as if Madson will get most, if not all, the Phillies' save opportunities while Lidge is gone. NL-only managers should pick him up for sure, and mixed league managers in need of saves should give him a look as well.

The official Twitter page of the Phillies is reporting that closer Brad Lidge has been placed on the 15-day DL with a sprained right knee. Lidge has blown six saves this season, and there has been rampant speculation that his knee has been bothering him all year.
Our View: This comes as a bit of a surprise, but it was obvious Lidge was not at 100 percent. Hopefully a few weeks off will allow the knee to fully heal, but fantasy owners need to find another option quick at closer. Don't expect him to be out for much more than the 15 days unless he has a setback.

One season after going 41-for-41 in save opportunities and delivering
One season after going 41-for-41 in save opportunities and delivering a 1.95 ERA, Lidge has already blown six saves while ringing up a 7.27 ERA. He looked to be settling down at the end of May, but his problems resurfaced, leading to blown saves on June 5 and 6. At his point, it's unclear if Lidge's knee problems will keep him out for longer than the alotted 15 days, but owners will nonetheless want to grab likely fill-in closer Ryan Madson while they can.

The Philadelphia Daily News is reporting that the knee of closer Brad Lidge is not an issue anymore. "It feels like I don't really have to worry about it as much anymore. I don't have to worry if it's going to respond. It's stronger, and I am confident that it will." Lidge recorded a save in four straight days from May 29 to June 1.
Our View: Lidge has been much better as of late, so it seems like his knee injury may be a thing of the past. He has been pitching on consecutive days on a regular basis, so fantasy owners can expect to see the Brad Lidge of old going forward. Be weary of an injury recurrence, but for now it appears that Lidge is completely healthy.

Trevor Hoffman remained perfect on the season as he picked up his 14th save in 14 chances in the Brewers 9-6 win over the Marlins on Wednesday. He did not allow a base runner, while striking out one.
Our View: Hoffman has yet to allow a run in 16 innings of work this season, which is obviously impressive. What we find almost as impressive is his 15:1 K:BB ratio. It may seem impossible for him to keep this up all season, but Brad Lidge was able to remain perfect on all of his save opportunities just a season ago.

Yes, his recent hot streak has come against some below-average
Yes, his recent hot streak has come against some below-average teams, but it's hard to argue with the fact that Lidge has now saved five games in the last week. For Lidge, as for other closers, a bulletproof mentality is essential to getting this most stressful of jobs done. If Lidge's recent spate of saves gets him back into a groove, it won't matter whether those saves came against the Marlins, Nats and Padres. Fantasy owners already don't care about the team Lidge is shutting down in the ninth, as long as he's doing it consistently. Right now, he is.
