A contingent of Phillies fans has been upset about the fact that Ryan Madson was seen playing frisbee with Brett Myers and J.D. Durbin prior to Friday night's loss to the Rockies where the bullpen was handed the task of getting nine outs in order to preserve a 3-run lead, yet failed. The fact that he was playing frisbee wasn't a concern, but the fact that Madson said he was unavailable to pitch that night due to fatigue.
To those who see Madson's extra-curricular activities as an issue, I ask this question: After watching this team for the last three months, do you really think it would have mattered in the outcome?
