The closer returns: Phillies activate Lidge

Those that are sick of watching Ryan Madson struggle through closing situations now have someone else to sweat through the 9th inning with: Brad Lidge is back. Lidge, who was placed on the disabled list at the end of spring training, will be activated before Friday's game against the Mets. To make room for Lidge, Antonio Bastardo was sent to the minors.

It's not known if Lidge will return to the closer spot right away. Given how Madson blew a save yesterday against the Giants, I'm sure Lidge will be finding his way back to the 9th sooner rather than later. How he does in the role is another story, though, considering his 11 blown saves and ERA over 7 last season. Let's hope his return solidifies the back end of the Phillies bullpen and let's the relievers all fall into their normal roles.
