Couple of Phillies Notes

Obviously, the big story today is the Lidge injury. Todd Zolecki has the scoop for that. He caught a spike in the mound delivering a pitch and had to limp off the field. He says it's a bit sore, but I doubt it's really serious. The Phillies asked Jim McCrossin what he thought of the injury, and he said Lidge will be back at 100% tomorrow. Bit of humor there for you.

Scott Lauber reports the Phillies have tabbed Joe Savery for Tuesday's exhibition game against Florida State. This shouldn't come as a surprise; last year, Kyle Drabek got the start in this game. He should be able to pitch a couple good innings, as he's dominated college competition before.

I'm going to try and post a reaction to the Howard arbitration win later tonight, but I've got a lot of stuff to do. I want to do another spring training preview, talk some Eagles and watch the Sixers while listening to the Flyers tonight.
