In other news, the Cardinals are absolutely loaded at 1B. Not only do they have Mr. MVP at first for like the next 10 years, but they recently promoted 2006 draftee Mark Hamilton (TUL) from State College (NYPL) to Quad Cities after hitting .264, 8 HR, 24 RBI in 30 games, leading the NYPL in HR. He was promoted, in part, because the Cards promoted 1B Randy Roth from Quad Cities to Palm Beach after Roth lead the Midwest League in HR (18 ) and hits (118). Hamilton is hitting .360, 1 HR, 12 RBI in 12 games with Quad Cities, while Roth is hitting .389 with 5 2B and 5 RBI in 10 games for Palm Beach.
