After scrolling back through the tape, I thought this stuck out the most telling quote from Charlie Manuel:

"We’re at the place where our games going down (the stretch), we need to win games. If we’re going to win the division, these are very important games and we need to win them.

"I guess I’m going to pitch on that night who I think is going to do the job. When he gets in there and he gets consistent, he can take that job right back. I look at him in the future as being the closer of the Phillies. But as of right now, as of today, we’re going to try to win games."
