Chris (St. Louis): Dave Duncan has fallen in love with Clay Mortensen. Do you think he could move up the rankings this year?
Kevin Goldstein: He could, but at the same time, what does that really mean. Is there a Cardinals pitching prospect that Duncan is talking about how much he hates? Of course not, so take all of those kind of comments with a grain of salt. That's nothing against Mortensen, that's just saying that Dave Duncan's public statement don't change anything about what we know about him.

Trey (San Fran): Speaking of the Cardinals, do you think Chris Perez can cut down his walks and become the closer of the future?
Kevin Goldstein: I don't think he's ever going to become Dennis Eckersley or anything, and he'll likely drive Cardinals fans insane a few times a year, but everything else about him has me believing that he takes over that role for the Cardinals in 2009.
