Myers Is Back!

Great news brought to us by Todd Zolecki via Twitter:

Brett Myers will be activated tomorrow in Houston. Expected to start pitching in the 6th and 7th innings.
This is great for the Phillies bull pen who get a huge boost from a good pitcher. Myers has pitched in relief in 2007 while going 5-5 with a 2.87 ERA and saving 21/24 games.

In six appearances and eight innings of minor league work, Myers has a 1.12 ERA and 14 strike outs, allowing a run on four hits and two walks.

Pending on how well Myers pitches well and if Brad Lidge continues to belly flop will determine who the play off closer will be. Whoever it is, he sure as hell better not blow a game.
