Current Cardinals
Jason Isringhausen was able to get some work in last night after the Cards got some insurance runs, making the game a non-save situation. Izzy threw 15 pitches, 10 for strikes for a line of: J Isringhausen 1.0 0 0 0 0 0 0 15-10 While he still left a couple of balls up that […]
Yadier Molina was ejected from last night’s debacle in Milwaukee after arguing balls and strikes. LaRussa was also ejected, after coming to Yadi’s defense.

It’s a shame Matty couldn’t carry on, but I appreciate his candor in saying that it just was too stressful on him having to deal with failure. Morris was the […]

Mark Mulder had another rough outing last night in what was supposed to be his second-to-last rehab start at Memphis. He gave up 7 runs in 6 innings, this after getting tagged for 9 runs in 3.2 innings in his previous start. This all begs the question – will he ever make it back? I’d […]
