Charlie Manuel has every right to feel bitter about the circumstances surrounding Roy Halladay and his sore right shoulder, but as a former player he identifies with the logic of silence about an injury.

Halladay was placed on the disabled list Monday afternoon and will undergo an examination at some point this week in Los Angeles with noted orthopedist Lewis Yocum.
The club recalled reliever joe Savery to add an arm to the bullpen and to temporarily take Halladay's place on the active roster until his spot in the rotation comes around on Friday.
General manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said Monday the vacancy will be filled internally. Adam Morgan and Tyler Cloyd are the likely candidates.
Morgan, 23, is 1-2 with a 3.89 ERA in six starts at Triple-A Lehigh Valley. The left-hander throws in the mid-90s and has strong command, highlighted by a slider he uses as an out pitch.
Cloyd, 25, was hit around earlier this year in Lehigh Valley and was passed over when John Lannan's spot in the rotation became available last month. The right-hander is 1-3 with a 5.40 ERA over six starts with the IronPigs.
Until Halladay's results are available the organization will plan for the worst, yet hope for the best.
"I wish I knew," Amaro said. "Hopefully it's something minor. Hopefully it's nothing major. We'll wait to see what the testing says and go from there."
