Ex-Cardinals Watch 8-30-09: Brett Wallace Defense; Jeff Suppan Returns To The Mound; Russell Branyan & Stuart Pomeranz Hit D.L.

Brett Wallace (Athletics):
I've seen Brett Wallace play three times this month. And in an effort to get a closer look at his defense, I arranged an opportunity to watch him take pregame fielding practice from at Raley Field, home of the River Cats. To be honest, I viewed him through a very critical lens. I was looking for any bit of evidence that he couldn't stick at third base. He didn't give me much to work with, though.

Jeff Suppan (Brewers):
Jeff Suppan has his work cut out for him if he wants to rein in his numbers to meet his career averages, and he'll be pitching at slightly less than 100 percent.
