Prospectus Hit List: Back To Earth

2. Cardinals (Fell From #1)

Winners of seven out of nine, the Cardinals take three straight series against teams forecast to win at least 87 games. The Albert Pujols-led offense leads the league in scoring and is running a close second to the Dodgers in EqA. The staff has the league's second-lowest ERA, and while they don't miss many bats (14th in strikeouts), they're second in walk and homer rates. The infield defense could use some help however; with converted outfielder Skip Schumaker at the keystone, they're 13th in Defensive Efficiency.
