Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said Tuesday that he is leaning towards using Antonio Bastardo as his closer while Ryan Madson (hand) is on the disabled list. Manuel left open the possibility that he could play the matchups, which means that Michael Stutes may also get a chance here or there. Bastardo, 25, has a 0.96 ERA and 33/13 K/BB ratio over 28 innings this season, so he should be owned in most mixed leagues at the moment.
