The guy most likely needs a different place to pitch, he can't go on like this, he blew his 1st game of the season, either the Astros make his huge contract a RP, and move Wheeler as there CP, or the Astros give him up.
So give some offers?

Don't give away too much talent Lidge has been just as inconsistent as Jose Valervde. Drew could have been a #1 pick if not for having Scott Boris as his agent.
That said if Houston throws some extras into the pot it would be something to talk about. We could move Justin Upton back to his natural postion at SS.

What's Lidge's contract like? Maybe a trade with the Mets? He might be better as a setup man to Billy Wagner than a CP. But then again, not sure how he'll handle playing in NY which comes with it's own set of pressures.

Lidge's only problem is homers. It's just a recent thing and I wouldn't expect it to continue. He still strikes out like 12 guys per nine innings.
The only thing keeping me from making that deal would be the sinking feeling I have that Pena is going to be a 40 HR guy in like 2 years. After all he is only 25.

As I said, the Mets seem like a good option. Ambi-Burgos and a dozen bagels do?

Make them the bagels with the raisins in them and add a small tub of strawberry cream cheese. I hate to say it because you don't do business like this in the real world but if the raisins get thrown in, I think we clearly get the better end of this deal.
