Moves that impact the N.L. East
Over the last four seasons, no relief pitcher in the majors has more strikeouts than Brad Lidge's 452 (in 294 appearances). The 30-year-old Lidge, who went 5-3 with 19 saves, a 3.36 ERA for Houston this past season, moves into the closer role for Phillies, who won the NL East in 2007. Associated Press
