What makes this situation unique is that Gillick is leaving the team at the end of the season, and he appears to already be handing over some of the decisions to his assistants. "If I'm not going to be back and the organization thinks that they would like to move ahead, then it would be something that we would have to consider," Gillick said Sunday. "I'd say at this point they're both having above-average seasons," Gillick said of Burrell and Lidge. "They probably would be somebody we would have to consider retaining." |
Phillies' GM Pat Gillick doesn't usually like to discuss extensions with players during the season, but he might be making an exception when it comes to Pat Burrell and Brad Lidge this year, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer.
