Phils Closer Lidge to Have Knee Surgery

Phillies closer Brad Lidge is scheduled to have arthroscopic surgery on his right knee Monday and could miss the regular-season opener.
...
The 31-year-old right-hander was expected to return to Philadelphia on Sunday for surgery Monday that would sideline him for three to six weeks. The Phillies open the season at home March 31 against Washington.

Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said setup man Tom Gordon would close if Lidge isn’t ready for opening day.

Get off that ledge, Philly fans, it will only be 3-6 weeks before Lidge will join his lodge brothers in the pen.
