Prospectus Hit List: Blanking Out

3. Cardinals (Down)

Moody May: The frustrations are mounting over the Cardinals' mediocre month. Brad Penny hits a grand slam but leaves a game in the fourth inning due to a strained lat, angering manager Tony La Russa because he concealed the injury. Meanwhile, Albert Pujols exchanges unpleasantries with the skipper as well. Pujols has been struggling against lefties all season (.195/.250/.390 in 44 PA), and he remains stuck on one homer this month; the Cards have been outhomered 23-12 since the calendar turned.
