Dave Winfield On The Fast Lane Show 9-8-10

ESPN baseball analyst Dave Winfield joins the show.

Dave and the guys discuss whether or not Tony La Russa has worn out his welcome in St. Louis. Dave says managers are hired to be fired, but La Russa will one day be in the Hall of Fame. He says St. Louis doesn't seem to have the same old mojo they've always had. He says that Albert Pujols is super, man, but he's not "Superman". Dave says that Pujols can't do everything himself, and outside of Chris Carpenter and Adam Wainwright, the team's pitchers haven't carried their weight. He says the Cardinals don't have "it" this year, and that's unusual for a Cards team. Dave says the idea of a manager losing his voice over a team is reality, but he doesn't know if that's happened to La Russa. To hear the entire interview, click below:
