I like how you bring that up after Z had his best start of the season, 7 shutout innings. Let's wait and see on this. Hopefully he just got off to a slow start.

I was joking, Z will be fine.

Wait, there are other teams who have their pitchers leave games with something as ridiculously vague as "elbow discomfort"?

 

I think the Baseball Gods missed. This was clearly aimed at Z.

he may have been picking the pints up too fast or not curling them correctly.

 

i kid.... :lol:

Ponson is going to be fine. The discomfort is caused by leaning on his elbows too long while eating chicken wings.

No doubt he'll be replaced by an undrafted FA who will go 20-2 the rest of the way then sign somewhere else next year and triple his ERA.

If he's going to be out a while we should trade Hill for that Pujols guy. It'd be a pretty fair deal.

I'd hold out for Pujols and that Carpender dude. He seems like a decent pitcher.

How about we do Hill and Williams for Pujols, Carpenter and Rolen? Pujols and Carpenter are good, but for the quality we're sending their way, they should make it worth our while.

Cards' Ponson has muscle strain in elbow

 

ST. LOUIS --Tests on Sidney Ponson's right elbow revealed an acute flexor muscle strain that will force him to miss at least one start, the St. Louis Cardinals announced today.

 

Ponson experienced discomfort in the bottom of the third inning Sunday in Florida and was lifted for a pinch-hitter in the top of the fourth.

 

"It's not likely he will make his next start," Cardinals trainer Barry Weinberg said. "He threw a pitch and one of the muscles surrounding the elbow was strained."

I thought sliding Wainright in the rotation was a logical choice. Guess not.

Wainwright is already up dominating in the pen.. Cards dont really need a 5 man rotation for another week.. Rincon is out for the year so Johnson seems like the right logical choice..

Nah, that Pujols kid is just a flash in the pan.
