You are supposed to include a link to the flickr page when attributing flickr photos. This is what the other "ists" do. - Scott Ableman

Update! Ensberg was shipped to San Diego (where he has an off-season home for a Player To Be Named Later (whose name had come up frequently in trade discussions this season). Lidge, Qualls, Loretta, and Lamb all stayed put. These are our Astros for the rest of the season, it seems.

Just becasue someone has one bad year you don't trade them. Berkman's having a bad year, you gonna trade him too? No. Lidge is back. He's not going anywhere.

Lidge is one more blown save away from another debilitating meltdown. The Stros should deal him while he's got some value.

You think Brad Lidge needs a change of scenary? Since his horrible April he's been Lights Out. In May he went 1-1 with a 1.10 ERA. In June he went 0-0 with a 1.00 ERA. In July he's six for six in save situatins with a 2.79 ERA. The Astros messed up bad giving up Billy Wagner for nothing in return. They're not making the same mistake with Lidge. He's untouchable. Purpura stated this on the Astros website. And I agree.
