	<title>Desperately Seeking Relief</title>
	<link>http://ballhype.com/story/desperately-seeking-relief/</link>
	<description>&lt;p&gt;The main reason I picked against the Phillies in the NLDS and NLCS is because of their bullpen. Brad Lidge&#39;s mental state is such a mess that they can&#39;t trust him at all. Ryan Madson is shaky in his own right and they were reduced to Brett Myers backing up Madson. It&#39;s amazing they got this far. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;PRINCEOFNEWYORK posted 5 days ago from paullebowitz.com &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Find more top sports news, videos, and blogs on BallHype: &lt;a href="http://ballhype.com/mlb/"&gt;MLB&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://ballhype.com/mlb/philadelphia_phillies/"&gt;Philadelphia Phillies&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://ballhype.com/mlb/nlds/"&gt;NLDS&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://ballhype.com/mlb/nlcs/"&gt;NLCS&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://ballhype.com/mlb/brad_lidge/"&gt;Brad Lidge&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://ballhype.com/mlb/ryan_madson/"&gt;Ryan Madson&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://ballhype.com/mlb/brett_myers/"&gt;Brett Myers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
