Give La Russa a ton of credit, he's doing a nice job of getting everyone playing time. All four of those guys are more than capable and could use semi-regular playing time, so he's doing a nice job and it's certainly not hurting the team.

Question is who will be gone come July, Ankiel or Duncan? LaRussa has done a great job with this mess and it seems to be paying off big time.

Ludwick is sitting tonight

He's only, like, their second best hitter.

Ludwick shelved and headed to the 15-day disabled list. The Cards once had too many outfielders; now, they're snake-bitten.
