Rotoworld updates WHAT ARE THE PHILLIES THINKING?

In the beginning of the season all Phillies fan when comparing Brett Myers to Tom Glavine said Myers was better and would only get better.

Here's Phillies bright idea after 2? bad starts

"The Phillies have decided to make Brett Myers into a setup man to make room for Jon Lieber in the rotation. He'll work in the seventh and eighth, as well as close when Tom Gordon is not available.

Incredible. This is perhaps the biggest overreaction to a lousy start that we've ever witnessed. Myers earned the Opening Day start for the Phillies after back-to-back fine seasons and had a great spring. He was coming off back-to-back poor starts, but he had struck out 19 in 15 1/3 innings"

"Jon Lieber is moving into the Philadelphia rotation, displacing Brett Myers.

Lieber finished last year with a 4.93 ERA in 27 starts. He's probably better than that, but his fantasy value still figures to be pretty limited, and if the Phillies aren't careful with him, they might get him hurt again."

Now this makes no sense to me.. The Philles are taking their ace out of the rotation to put him in the pen? Now how is a guy who has been a successful starter during his career going to act to be putting put in the pen for a 37 year old? My guess look for Myers to be traded soon.


Mets

"Paul Lo Duca is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

Lo Duca left Tuesday's game with a bruised right index finger."

Surprised thought he would at least take one day off

Marlins

"Marlins placed outfielder Alejandro De Aza on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to April 16, with a sprained right ankle."


"Marlins placed RHP Jorge Julio on the 15-day disabled list with a right calf strain."

Just tell the guy he isn't good enough to pitch on your team don't go making up fake injuries.

"Marlins recalled RHP Lee Gardner from Triple-A Albuquerque.

Gardner gets recalled after six days because of Jorge Julio's "injury." He'll work in middle relief and in a setup role."

"Marlins recalled outfielder Eric Reed from Triple-A Albuquerque.

Reed was hitting .130/.149/.196 in 46 at-bats for Albuquerque. The Marlins will probably keep using Cody Ross and Alfredo Amezaga in center, with Reed serving as a defensive replacement."
