The Phillies bumped starter Kyle Kendrick from his scheduled start tonight at Lehigh Valley.  Chuck Hixson from phillybaseballnews.com was on 97.3 ESPN FM’s, The Sports Bash and said the Phils were interested in Washington Nationals outfielder Josh Willingham.

Naturally Phillies fans thought that Kendrick being scratched meant he was on his way to Washington.  However, according to our sources that’s not the case.

We are told that Kendrick was bumped due to the fact the Phillies reliver Clay Coundrey is still hurting a bit and in if he cant go, then Kendrick would be the guy who gets the call-up to replace Coundrey.
