No issue tomorrow because I will be visiting my grandparents in Napa. Grandpa grew up in St. Louis, and the Browns/Cardinals World Series of 1944 has forever made him a St. Louis Cardinals fan. Even if he can’t pronounce Pujols, he still likes to talk about how terrible the team is and how they always get cold every summer. No, he didn’t have much to say after they won the World Series. He’d rather complain about how they couldn’t win just one game against the 2004 Boston Red Sox.
So Vladimir Guerrero is pretty hurt after all. And if he does not go on the DL, you have to waste one of your bench spots on him. So who gets the at-bats? Indirectly, it is Gary Matthews Jr. He’s worth picking up.
John Maine is one of those guys you want to stash on your bench, because at some point he will get hot. If you’re in a deep league, now is a good time to trade for him, because he is just about worthless in the eyes of many.
If you have to pick a closer in St. Louis, go for Ryan Franklin.
With Kenji Johjima on the DL, Rob Johnson will start. Finally, a catcher who knows how to take a concussion.
With Alex Gordon on the DL, Mark Teahen will play third, and Mike Aviles will man shortstop.
The John Baker/Ronny Paulino situation is officially a platoon. Baker will face the lefties.
