Okay so the majic number for the Cards is 11! We beat the Cubs yesterday. We had a very good road trip. The Roster has just expanded to include 7 brought up from Triple A. They include; Anthony Reyes, Adam Wainright, Randy Flores, Chris Duncan(Dave Duncan's son!), John Gall, Mike Mahoney, and Skip Schumaker. We have seen Reyes, Gall, Mahoney, Flores, and Schumaker in action. We know they are good. It will be interesting to see how Duncan and Wainright do on the major leage level. Reyes and Schumaker are the two who were called up very briefly. However, both players obviously impressed LaRussa enough to call them up when the roster can expand. Jason Marquis appears to have gotten out of his slump; he has won his last two starts. Chris Carpenter became the first 20 game winner in baseball this season, shutting down the Rocket and the Astros. Clemmens only made it through 5 innings, while Carpenter completed the game. We have two more games with the Cubs, who suprise suprise, are not in the running for the wild card. Then we play the Mets. I will be in attendance on Friday the ninth vs. the Pond Scum Mets. My mother hails from Queens, New York and rooted for the Mets, and now to irritate her we boo the mets and call them that name. Let's Go Cardinals. Beat those Cubs!!!
Update: Tyler Johnson was also called up and he pitched for an inning last night. C'mon Cards!! Majic number is now 11!

Your mom was a Mets fan?!? I work with psychiatrists and psychologists, want me to check and see if there's a treatment for that?
