Huh?

Check out this quote from Jerry Manuel on the news that Wagner is almost certainly gone for the year:

"It's bittersweet," Manuel said. "Bitter in the sense that we lost Billy Wagner probably for the remainder of the year."

Uh-huh, and sweet in the sense that...? (insert crickets chirping here) ....

I can only assume he meant sweet that they had just beaten the philthies 6-3, but still. Strange choice of words with no explanation..
