Lidge to throw bullpen session tomorrow

After a painless game of catch today, Brad Lidge expects to throw a bullpen session tomorrow, three days after he was shut down with what the Phillies have called a mild case of biceps soreness.

Lidge said he "felt good" after throwing in the outfield.

In another injury update, Placido Polanco says he still has pain in his hyper-extended left elbow but that he is extremely confident that he will be ready by Opening Day. He hopes to take batting practice within the next three days.

The Phillies host the Blue Jays today. They'll wear their usual green jerseys in honor of St. Patrick's Day.
