Billy Wagner to the DL; Ruddy Lugo up

Billy Wagner's MRI revealed a strained left forearm, so the southpaw is heading for the disabled list.

Ruddy Lugo will replace him on the roster, not making it to the stadium until after the game begins.

Jerry Manuel said he will use bullpen by comittee, with Aaron Heilman getting the top billing.

Well this should be fun. Lugo's name had been thrown around as a possibility for the spot start needed this weekend. Guess you can take him out of the running for that.

Please get well soon, Billy, blown saves and all.
