Are any of the bull pen pitchers look ready to make the jump up to the Cardinals? I'm thinking Nick Anderson. Thoughts?

a handful of retreads/FA/Waiver/Rule 5 picks could.... Weiss, Taylor, Gomez. I'm a big Granillo fan, he's beyond due for a promotion

It's pretty much Granillo, O'Brien, and Loutos from the Cards development side, and the retreads....throw a dart, pick one and pray.

Svanson got the call, but he has only 1 inning....if your Manager won't use a guy, why promote them?

[CNYFan]

Exact on Svanson

big guy for a catcher. 6'3" 224 lbs

[craviduce]

Munoz avoids a Mayo HR....Mayo torched a low liner down the LF line, just foul off the top of the wall. Munoz gives him a single instead, two pitches later.

3 straight hits, 1 run in, no outs off of Munoz in the 9th.

No one is warming up. Trying to save the BP for tomorrow's Double Header

I had same question. Did Fernandez get sent down. Who got called up. I'm guessing O'Brien.

And yes, Oli has to get over it and use Svansin and whoever gets the call. The results are not going to be worse than what he's gotten.
