Phillies closer Brad Lidge received a cortisone shot in his surgically-repaired right elbow on Tuesday.

The reliever had surgery on his elbow in November and likely won't be ready to pitch until mid-April at the earliest.

Philadelphia is hoping that the cortisone shot will speed his rehabilitation.
