Pujols in lineup?

[sweetpeteman]

According to Sportscenter, he is.

 

 

and according to MLB.com he is.

 

 

 

 

I personally think this will end up hurting the Cards.

Yes, it always hurts to have the game's greatest player in your lineup and off the DL.

Pujols in, Mulder out

Here's the skinny...

 

1. Albert Pujols was activated from the DL today. He's starting at first base and batting third. He said everything feels normal and he's good to go.

 

2. Mark Mulder was placed on the 15-day DL with what the team is calling a left shoulder strain, but the whole thing is pretty odd. Mulder basically can't get full extension of his arm, and that's all they really seem to be sure of.

 

No muscle or tendon or anything has been identified as the culprit. He'll be examined tomorrow by Dr. Paletta in St. Louis. According to TLR, there's a pretty good chance that they'll hold him out through the All-Star break, but nothing is set in stone until they check everything out.

 

3. As expected, Anthony Reyes was added to the roster to make the start tonight. The final piece of roster juggling was that Chris Duncan was optioned to Memphis.

 

4. Sidney Ponson threw a bullpen today and will take Mulder's turn in the rotation on Sunday.

 

5. Jim Edmonds is in the lineup.

 

I'll have more depth on all of this, of course, in my notebook later this evening.

I think it will end up hurting the Cards because of the nature of the injury. There is a good chance that, by rushing him back like this, AP could very easily get hurt again.

 

 

And hey, look, I can do the roll eyes as well:

so bite me.

I understand that Albert stipulated that he'd be playing the field upon his return, but I'd rather he DH.

Well at least the Cardinals proved you can't get along without your big gun.

Yup they sure did. ](*,) ](*,) ](*,)

This is exactly the reason I made a rant against the roll-eyes smiley.

Is anybody really surprised that Pujols went 4-4 with a HR yesterday? I'm not.

I was a bit surprised by it, soccer10k. On Thursday he seemed to be way out in front of the pitches and his timing wasn't all there. He was making contact, but they were soft grounders.
