Brad Lidge will sign a one-day contract to officially retire as a member of the Phillies on Thursday.
Lidge is going to be on hand at Citizens Bank Park to throw out the first pitch and take part in a small retirement ceremony. He already announced in December that he was done with baseball for good, so this is all pageantry. The right-hander had a 3.54 ERA and 225 saves in 11 major league seasons -- four spent in Philadelphia.

Brad Lidge has announced his retirement.
Lidge, 35, appeared in just nine games with the Nationals last season before being released. He'll end his 11-year career with a 3.54 ERA, 799 strikeouts, and 225 saves. His best season came in 2008, when he finished fourth in NL Cy Young voting and eighth in MVP.

Jayson Stark on Twitter
Brad Lidge told ESPN's Jerry Crasnick that he hasn't decided whether he'll come back and pitch for another team this season.
Lidge was released by the Nationals earlier this week after being designated for assignment. The veteran right-hander has instructed his agents to take calls from interested teams, but he hasn't made up his mind about whether he will return in 2012. "I am healthy, but based on the path I would have to take to get back to the bigs this year I am not sure I will be jumping back in right now," said Lidge. "No official decision one way or another, but mostly I am not happy that I rushed back from surgery before I was ready only to be designated for assignment a couple of days later."

Nationals released RHP Brad Lidge.
Lidge was designated for assignment by the Nationals last weekend and passed through waivers with ease. However, he should draw plenty of interest on the open market now that he can sign at the league minimum. The veteran right-hander posted an ugly 9.64 ERA and 10/11 K/BB ratio over 9 1/3 innings with Washington.

Wilson Ramos
D.L.
Wilson Ramos (hand) took five light swings Friday.
It's the first time he's swung a bat since hamate bone surgery on April 2. Although Ramos said he didn't feel any pain, his left wrist remains weak (which is no surprise). He's expected back with the Nationals in mid-May.

Nationals recalled OF Jeff Kobernus from Triple-A Syracuse; placed him on the 60-day disabled list with a fractured left hand.
The Nats needed to make a move to clear room on their 40-man roster. Kobernus fractured his hand last Monday at Syracuse when he was hit by a pitch.

Ryan Zimmerman does not need surgery on his thumb.
Zimmerman fractured his right thumb on April 12 when he jammed his right hand against the second base bag while attempting to avoid a successful pickoff attempt by Braves starter Alex Wood. Zimmerman met with a specialist Monday who set the bone back in place. He has been fitted with a cast and will be out 4-6 weeks.

Adam Kilgore of the Washington Post reports that Doug Fister (lat) is on pace to make his debut for the Nationals on May 7.
It's possible the exact date will be altered a bit, but that's the day that looks to make the most sense right now. Fister threw two innings Thursday in an extended spring training game and had "no issues," according to manager Matt Williams. "He felt good about it," Williams added. "Reports are his first inning was better than his second inning, which is a good sign." Fister will begin a once-every-five-days schedule and is on pace to make his season debut in three weeks.

D.L.
Nationals reliever Erik Davis recently underwent Tommy John surgery.
Davis sustained a right elbow sprain in early February, and surgery was among the options. The right-hander had a 3.12 ERA and 12/1 K/BB ratio over 8 2/3 innings last season with the club. He's looking at being back sometime early in 2015.

Ross Ohlendorf
D.L.
Nationals placed RHP Ross Ohlendorf on the 60-day disabled list with a right lumbar strain.
Ohlendorf was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse last week, but the option has been voided due to the injury. The veteran right-hander won't be eligible to return until late-May. The roster moves clears a spot for the newly-signed Kevin Frandsen.
