He should be ready for spring training if his tendon does not be repaired. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Brad_Lidge/626414 626414 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 20:08:01 EDT kffl.com http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Brad_Lidge/626414 Lidge to have surgery on Wednesday According to the Twitter page of Phillies' beat writer Scott Lauber, closer Brad Lidge will have surgery on Wednesday to remove a loose body from his right elbow. Lidge will also have his right flexor tendon evaluated at that time.

Our View: The Phillies aren't too concerned about this procedure, as it is a fairly minor operation. The flexor tendon could be the bigger worry here, but overall this doesn't figure to be a huge deal.
