Sigh. Welle deserves his PotM award - he's been very good. Last night would’ve been the perfect opportunity to put Worrell in to pitch the eighth after CP63 shut down the rally in the seventh. Sigh.

I'm glad the kid got the call, though...and he is EXTREMELY tough on right handers, so Flores just may have found his 7th inning mate. Mulder...done. Clement...done. Carpenter...don't bank on Carp being Carp...the number of pitchers who've had two TJ's and come back at anything resembling successful you can count on one hand...with fingers to spare. I'm praying he is servicable and can still get his fastball up to 91 and that the hammer doesn't shred his arm. Chris O'leary's inverted L theory is holding true with Carp...sigh. Biggest Break Out of the Year: Todd Wellemeyer...putting up legit #2 numbers... If you haven’t seen Worrel’s delivery yet, you and a number of other Cardinals fans will be in for head scratcher.
