Joe Strauss Visits With Bernie Miklasz On 1380 AM (Monday Tidbits)

• Adam Wainwright didn't have a whole lot of command on his fast ball. Wasn't walking people, just leaving the ball out there for the hitters.
• Trever Miller had good day.
• Blake Hawksworth had one good inning and a bad one, Jason Motte didn't look too good either.
• Skip Schumaker is making a tough transition.
• Tyler Greene made errors he shouldn't have.
• The Cardinals depth is from within not based on 6-year minor league vets, Greene will be a player to get a call in the future.
• Brian Barton is showing more pop than last season. Probably won't make the team out of spring training, get everyday play at Triple-A Memphis.
• Neither Adam Kennedy or Tony LaRussa talked today.
• Joe Thurston not swinging the bat very well, not a great arm for the outfield, stock possibly dropping.
• Joe Mather needs to show his power, David Freese is still a good lock for third base.
• Chris Carpenter showed command and pitched real well.
