Oops...my bad.

Maybe I should not have joked about the Cardinals DL fielding their own team, as now Albert Pujols has gone down with a calf injury. The Cardinals did win the game last night, but now their 2 best pitchers, their best hitter, former closer, and a slew of other players are out. Word is that Wainwright might miss up to 3 weeks. The only good news is that his arm will get a rest; unfortunately, the Cardinals may not be able to tread water during this next few weeks. This will be a true test of this team's makeup.

Cardinals DL to field own ML team....

The tenth Cardinals pitcher has gone on the DL in Adam Wainwright. Add in Rick Ankiel's absence over the past few weeks, that the NL Pitcher of the Month for May is going to miss atleast one start, and it is even more remarkable that the Cardinals are 11 games over .500 this late in the season. If TLR would have benched Izzy a little sooner, this team could be right there with the Cubs.

I said a few years ago that Cubs only hope for a World Series would be in 2008.....God I hope that does not happen. Cubs fans would become even more unbearable.
