A couple of notes & comment

Listen to McCormick' start at AA - announcer says he was on 45 pitch limit and action in the bullpen after 2 innings - realize he was coming off the tandem starting gig at PB & injury from last year, but surprised to hear his pitch limit is only 45. Wonder how fast they can stretch him out. When Herron came off the same program a couple of week's ago - I thought his 1st start was 75 pitch limit and he went to 90 pitches on his second outing.

See on Bernie's forum that Ankiel has right shoulder trouble - could not go today and ? for tomorrow. No Mather in AAA line up makes you wonder if a move will be made.

Also wonder if Lohse is ? - what will happen - after using 4 relievers today - looks like Parisi might need to eat some innings if necessary.

After the last several years of focusing on the system talent being in the lower minors - it sure is enjoyable seeing the talent start to reach the majors and advance into the higher ranks of the system - it was only a couple of years ago when the AA and AAA rosters had a lot of journeyman minor leagues - now both rosters is almost all home grown.

Post is reporting today that Mather has been told that he is coming to St Louis and that Ankiel will go on the DL with a shoulder strain.
