Brad Lidge has been demoted as closer of the Phillies. His role has yet to be defined and he could return to closer duties, but Charlie Manual wants to use Lidge in low-stress opportunities. "I don't see us using him in the seventh or eighth inning," Manuel said. "I look at him as a closer. That's kind of where he fits. I see him pitching once he needs work. If we're behind in the game or we're ahead or something by a good margin we'll get him to make sure he pitches live in the game. He needs to get work where he can command his pitches and he feels good about himself. I agree that he needs work like that. That's kind of what he wants. I don't know how much work like that from here to the end of the season we can get him."
