Don't Take Chances With Yadier Molina

I haven’t seen Yadier Molina’s MRI results, and even if I did, I probably wouldn’t be able to determine what condition his tender right knee is in. But I know this much: If he’s still feeling even the slightest twinge, the simplest ache or even the mildest discomfort in that surgically repaired joint when he shows up at Busch Stadium this afternoon, the Cardinals should keep him on the bench.
