The sun is out, the rain is gone. All's well, right? Well, not quite. Just when I had settled down to snooze through the last few days of spring training--has it ever before been so boring?--came the news that Brad Lidge had had a cortisone shot in his right elbow. Not to worry, was the word. But then, why the shot?
Then came the news about Joe Blanton, out at least for the day with some kind of an oblique injury. No word so far about how bad that is. Yeah, yeah, Kyle Kendrick is stretched out and ready to go, but let's not forget that Everyday Joe has been as steady as they get.
