WASHINGTON -- The Phillies will attempt to improve what's been an unreliable bullpen by moving Brett Myers into a relief role and returning veteran Jon Lieber to the starting rotation.

Lieber will likely start Friday against the Reds, which had been when Myers was due to take his turn at starting.

So on a scale of 1-10 how stupid of a move is this by the Phillies?

You can't quantify it. It transcends stupidity.

So much for that great starting staff. How do you put your Ace in the pen? I understand that they have the young stud, but still this is your ace.

Ah the old put your ace in the bullpen move. That is a move that I'm sure will pay of for the Phillies. :rofl:

In a similar move, dissatisfied with the outfield depth off the bench, the Sox moved Manny Ramirez to the fourth OF spot.

Jimmy Rollins will be moved to a pinch runner soon so he can concentrate on stealing 40 bases.
