The Cardinals will take on the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday for the second of a three game series in St. Louis. The Phillies will have new comer Joe Blanton on the mound. Blanton, a 6′3, 5.13 righthander is 0-0 in his career as a Phillie, and has never faced the Cardinals!
Albert has never faced Blanton in his career.

The Cardinals, coming into tonight’s game with the Phillies are 61-50, tied with the Brewers for the National League Wildcard. The Mets are 1.5 back, while the Marlins are 2.0 back. In those 111 games here is how our boy Albert Pujols has fared. MVP type season? Maybe!

Chalk me up as one that is okay with making no trade deadline deals. This team can make the playoffs without a deadline deal. 50 games to go, and tie for the wildcard. The Brewers have the Ned Yost factor, the Mets are too bi-polar, the Phillies have Charlie Manuel, and the Marlins are too young.. Albert will lead the Cardinals to the NL Wildcard in 2008, and I will go as far as to say, the Cardinals and Cubs will meet in the 2008 NLCS!
