doesnt really need to "get better". He's one of the top closers out there.

its a mental thing. Agreed that if Lidge is a head case in the world series (which I hope we get there), than it will make things difficult. But if thats the case we'll work with other options. Maybe Madson will get the call?

One things for sure, is one man (Lidge) is not going to win the world series or lose the world series for us. We are a real solid TEAM, and wont live or die by one man.

Closing is like 70% mental. When closers lose their mental composure things can fall apart really quickly.

agreed but thats also why I'm not writing him off. People go in and out of slumps all the time. Its just weird for Lidge and Philly right now cause he has NEVER been in a slump with us.

He just needs to get it back... he's on the right team to be able to get his head back thats for sure. We have a lot of clubhouse leaders. Good group of men make our city proud!
