• Amaury Marti Watch

    Amaury Marti is currently hitting .424/.509/.633 in 39 games for the Mexican Red Devils of the Mexican League, also known as Liga de Amaury Cazana. Bud Selig ordered the Cardinals to banish him to there, in fear of the major leagues losing competitive balance.

    Amaury also refuses to accept the watch curse. He has the power to curse, and the power to bless.

Cards are on the clock

Posted on June 5, 2008 by erik

I’ve heard Weeks’ name bandied about at Oakland, seems quite reachy for my tastes. Now the Cards are in a good position. Do they choose the safe, polished college bat of Wallace who may not be able to stay at 3B? Or do they go boom or bust with Hicks? Friedrich? Someone else?

I’m bouncing off the walls right now.

    Wallace

    If nothing else, he could be trade bait in 2 years

  10. GOOCH, on June 5th, 2008 at 2:24 pm Said:

    Wallace! Law really likes the pick. Now if he can stay at third…

    He automatically becomes the highest-upside bat in our entire minor-league system, Colby included.

    Now I just hope there’s a position for him beyond first base.

    This is an incredible pick. I’ve seen him play quite a few times. This is just awesome.

  13. VolsnCards5, on June 5th, 2008 at 2:26 pm Said:

    please lose some weight and say at 3rd…please…take over for glaus in two years

  14. ricky vaughn, on June 5th, 2008 at 2:26 pm Said:

    I can’t argue with the pick, very low floor, maybe he’ll stick somewhere other than first.

    Kevin Goldstein (12:27:17 PM PT): 13. Cardinals take Brett Wallace, Arizona State.

    The Walrus! This guy can totally rake. If anyone think he’s a big league third basemen, they are borderline insane. Blue Jays are currently throwing things around the room.

  16. ricky vaughn, on June 5th, 2008 at 2:27 pm Said:

    that should read high floor

  17. roarke49, on June 5th, 2008 at 2:27 pm Said:

    What happens to Freese and Craig now?

  18. BigJawnMize, on June 5th, 2008 at 2:28 pm Said:

    where does he play for the team???

  19. Big Steve, on June 5th, 2008 at 2:29 pm Said:

    I like the strategy of taking a guy who can rake and then finding a position for him. If we have to move him into left like Braun so be it.

  20. PJ, on June 5th, 2008 at 2:30 pm Said:

    They continue to hit, they will be just fine. Nobody will complain about too many bats. The best thing that could happen—we have a logjam at 3rd
