TEAMS: St. Louis Cardinals

Glaus_plays_the_1b60
by Matt SnyderFiled under: Cardinals, NL Central, MLB InjuriesTroy Glaus has been trying to come back from injury all season, and the timetable just keeps extending. The latest news is that he has left his minor league rehab assignment and is shut down indefinitely. With around two months left in the season, we are nearing the writing-on-the-wall portion of Glaus' 2009 campaign. It's easy to say his season is in jeopardy, but we already knew that. The Cardinals already knew it, otherwise they wouldn't have pushed all their chips to the middle of the table in acquiring Mark DeRosa and Matt Holliday (DeRosa can play second, third or outfield, but with Holliday around they don't have a place in the outfield for him).Troy Glaus Shut Down, Season Nearing 'Lost Cause' Stage originally appeared on Fanhouse MLB Blog on Tue, 04 Aug 2009 16:55:00 EDT .

Sorry Met fans, that’s a tough loss last night.  3 run lead going into the eighth and the bullpen can’t hold it down.  However that sort of thing can’t be helped when Albert Pujols is involed.  Fat Albert went 4-5 with 2 home runs and 5 RBIs.  He hit a clutch eighth inning homer off [...]

Despite improved play after acquiring Julio Lugo and Matt Holliday, the St. Louis Cardinals have not really gained much ground on the National League Central division. After Chicago's 4-2 win over the Reds on Monday, the Birds are actually behind the Cubbies because of playing more games despite the winning record in the season series.
