Lidge needs to be released. We pay him big money to close ballgames, and he can't.
If you agreed with Wilson's release, you have to agree with me here. The dude has the worst ERA in our bullpen and he's our damn closer. WTF?!

but....we can get something in return for lidge. no one wanted wilson and he cleared waivers. lidge would not.

Trade him in the off season in a packaged deal with ensberg...several teams inquired about both players before the trading deadline. Build the team around Berkman, Burke, Scott, and Huff with Oswalt at the front of the rotation.

I definately agree with getting rid of him. I think they should put him on waivers just to see if he clears. He's gotten to the point where he is hurting the team, so no more of this he'll get through it ****.

Time to cut the chord and move on. Put him in the minors if he doesnt clear waivers.

Wheeler or Qualls.

Russ Spring has even been pitching good lately. Just anybody but Lidge.

Garner has already said it will be closer by committee. Can it really be any worse than the job Lidge has done?

I don't know what to say about Garner. Hell, he pulled Luke Scott out of the game early last night. WTF for? The guy is on fire and hits for power. What else can you ask for in extra inning at bats?

I'm starting to get a little frustrated with Garner myself. I like the guy, but right now, there are two players that should be in the lineup everyday. Those two being Berkman and Scott.

You can mix and match with the rest, but those two need to play daily and shouldnt be pulled in win the game goes to extras.
