Todd Wellemeyer
…then you haven’t seen anything yet! So apparently, just to spite me and my post from last night, lambasting the amount of walks surrendered by the Cards’ bullpen this season, Chris Perez went out this afternoon and one-upped me. Yes Chris, you have proven your point. Giving up a walk is not the worst thing […]
I have to admit, I wasn’t surprised when the Cardinals optioned Mike Parisi to Memphis in favor of Mitchell Boggs on Friday. In hindsight, it’s actually looking like the right move, with Todd Wellemeyer still nursing his elbow, and Boggs scheduled to take his turn in the rotation on Tuesday in Cincinnati. But I also […]
Todd Wellemeyer is the National League’s Pitcher of the Month for May. Stop. Sit down. Let that sink in for a minute. It’s not that he isn’t deserving. But the Cardinals got this guy off of the scrap heap. He has pitched fabulously in the month of May. Dave Duncan and his magic seem to […]

Wellemeyer proceeded to throw over to first, then pitch out, throw a strike, throw over to first again, then […]
