Brad Lidge? - Page 2

Lidge threw a scoreless 8th yesterday while Wheeler blew the save in the 9th. It will be interesting the next time the Astros have a slim lead late to see who is the setup man and who is the closer. I'm thinking it will be Lidge.

Wheeler got the save last night while Lidge pitched the 8th. Wheeler has blown a save this week and has given up big innings late in tie games twice over the last 10 days. Wheeler is still the cloer for now, but he has to be looking over his shoulder.

Comparing their last five outings by WPA

Lidge .058, .094, .016, .146, .007 his last negative performance was may 17th
Wheeler .047, -.903, .044, -.315, -.034

Wheeler's inconsistency is going to cost him the job as bha has been saying for a while

From the Astros team site, Lidge has regained the closers role.

Lodge got his first save oportunity since the first game of the season tonight. He gave up a solo homerun to tie the game. He was able to get out the inning without anymore damage. The Astros won in the 11th. Oswalt gets another no decision.
