I haven't a clue how this is going to come down with so many teams in the mix. This upcoming road trip alone is huge.

But I do think the cubs will not run away with it and perhaps even have issues themselves that Cards or Brewers could move on. Thinking pitching, and for STL if the Memphis Express can keep them coming I like the Cards chances to hang in there against those two.

And the likes of Cecil, Waino, et al cannot be forced on this staff if the kids are doing the job.

And Yadi needs a forking rest day. Enough already.
