ST. LOUIS -- Tony La Russa is saying great things about Scott Rolen about this winter. The St. Louis manager just isn't saying them to his star third baseman.

 

Caught up in a feud during the Cardinals' run to the World Series, the two strong-willed personalities have been silent around each other since winning the championship.

Clearly this report isn't true because everyone knows that good chemistry is a prerequisite for winning a championship.

 

That's why Hendry got rid of all the bad apples after 2004.

 

:twisted:

This is all an overblown non-issue.

I refuse to believe this. I must believe that the Cardinals, do in fact, actually hate one another. It makes me smile inside.

They all hate each other with the exception of David Eckstein. After each game Eckstein refs impromptu UFC matches in the clubhouse, and afterwards the team sings "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow" for his gritty and tenacious ref skills

Jim Edmonds is a uniter, not a divider.

If she's not a St Pauli Girl spokesmodel, she's missing her true calling.

Oh, by the way I agree, definetly the St Pauli girl

She bears a bit of a resemblance to Elisha Cuthbert. At least, that's what I always think when I see that.

JUPITER, FLA. — Cardinals manager Tony La Russa and third baseman Scott Rolen have declared a cease fire.

 

The two shared a firm handshake and a brief but congenial exchange outside La Russa's office Thursday. After talking past each other during the team's World Series run and literally walking past each other during last month's Winter Warm-up, the four-time manager of the year and his seven-time Gold Glove infielder agreed to "turn the page" on a disagreement that had turned ugly and public.

 

"It's not an issue. We've got other things to concern ourselves with now, like how to get ready to win ballgames," La Russa said Friday afternoon.

 

Asked if he believes he and La Russa should discuss the matter further, Rolen said, "I don't know if there's value in that. It's better to turn the page and move on. It's certainly a happier existence than digging it up and continuing to disagree."
