Cardinals pitcher Mark Mulder is set to return to St. Louis for a couple of days and then make somewhere between five and ten minor league starts before the Cardinals consider pulling him off the disabled list: "He's got a long way to go," La Russa said. Mulder, who has gone 6-10 with a 9.71 ERA over the past two seasons, but has had two successful outings in the minors this season. The Cardinals are off to a good start this season and if the can hold on until Mulder, Carpenter, and Clement return, they should be in good shape come August or September. Mulder's cutter and changeup are working really well for him this season, and was throwing the ball consistently in the high 80s. The Cardinals on paper look like an easy team to cross off, but a healthy Mulder behind Adam Wainwright is a scary thought.

just stumbled upon this site and i think its really great, but one thing...YOU DIDNT WIN THE 2007 BEST SPORTS BLOG AWARD! YOU CAME IN 3RD!
Actually, he won the 2007 best sports blog of the accredited sports blog of america, along with another site with yearly polls.
The ASBA 2007 best sports blog
top 50 sports sites
were the two.
who cares if he won or not....it is a great site regardless. you dont come because of the 2007 best sports blog, you come for content
Mulder looks like he has a bionic arm in that picture.
Must. pitch. throw. fast.
Gentlemen, we can rebuild him. We have the technology. We could create the world's first bionic pitcher....better than he was before. Better, stronger, faster.
Should Mulder prove healthy and get close to his previous form, the Cards could really make some noise and give the Cubs a hassle through the heart of the race.
Interesting.
